Luke: Hi Jane! What are you reading
Jane: Oh, hey, Luke! I'm reading a very interesting magazine article about moral dilemmas.
Luke: Moral dilemma What do you mean
Jane: You know, it's when you have two choices, and you have to choose one, but for moral reasons, sometimes it could be really difficult to decide.
Luke: Oh, situations like that don’t happen very often, do they
Jane: Actually, I think people face moral dilemmas all the time, even us students.
Luke: Really Like what
Jane: Well, for example, it mentions a girl who was taking the entrance exam for a medical university in Beijing. During the exam, the student next to her fainted（暈倒）. The girl had a choice. Should she finish the exam or should she stop and help the student
Listen to the conversation and fill in the blanks.
Luke: Surely the teachers would look after the student who fainted!
Jane: Well, that's what I thought--but not this girl. She stopped to help the student, thinking that it was better to put the needs of the other person first.
Luke: So what happened to her exam
Jane: She never finished it. Instead, she carried the student to a safe place and looked after her. She went to the hospital with the student and called her sister.
Luke: I can't believe she would give up her chance to get into medical university! Who would do such a thing
Jane: Well, that girl was Lin Qiaozhi. She later DID get into medical university and then she became a great doctor. She became famous for caring for tens of thousands of women and their babies.
Luke: Oh, wow! So she became a doctor even though she left her exam that day
Jane: Yes. Her life was full of hard choices, but she didn't let them stop her from taking care of people who were in need. She always cared for others more than for herself.

Talk about the importance of kindness
Host: Hello and welcome to the Rush Hour Show, the radio show for your way home. Our
guest today is Kevin Miller, with the Pay It Forward Foundation. Welcome, Kevin, so
what is "paying it forward"
Kevin: Hi, there. So "paying it forward” means that if you receive kindness from someone,
you don’t try to pay them back. Instead, you go out and show kindness to someone
else.
Host: Oh, so it's like helping a stranger. Can you give us an example of how it works
(the example)
Host: What a great story! So does this happen in real life
Kevin: Yes, actually. One woman, after paying for her coffee, then quietly paid for the
coffee of the customer behind her. When that customer discovered his coffee had
been paid for, he paid for the customer behind him. The chain of kindness continued
for hours. Nearly 400 people paid for the coffee of the person behind them!
Host: Wow, that’s amazing. So what can our listeners do to help
Kevin: Well, join the chain of kindness today and join the millions of people who are
"paying it forward"! We never know what light we might spark in others by our
kindness.

Listen to a radio show and answer the questions.
●What is the name of the radio show
● What does “paying it forward” mean
●What does the guest want the listeners to do
The name of the radio show is "Bush Hour Show".
"Paying it forward" means when you receive kindness from someone, you go out and show kindness to another person.
The guest wants the audience to join the chain of kindness and "pay it forward".
Well, I’m sure you’ve heard the famous country song, "The Chain of Love". The song starts with a man who helps a lady whose car has broken down. The lady wants to pay him, but he won't accept payment, instead telling the woman to just show kindness to another person. Later, when the lady stops at a cafe, she notices her waitress is pregnant and tired. When the lady finishes eating, she pays for her meal with a hundred-dollar bill. Then the lady walks out, leaving the change and a note for the waitress. Her note tells the waitress to continue the chain of kindness. The song has a surprise ending. The waitress goes home to her husband, happy because of the kindness the lady showed her. Then we find out that he’s the man who first started the chain of kindness!

Once, I did not have money to go to university, and so someone paid my tuition that term. This happened when I was eighteen. My grandmother had just died, and this had caused my family great expense, so we had no extra money at all. I did everything I could to raise the money, but it seemed hopeless. Then the morning that the tuition was due, someone gave my mother an envelope with the money. It wasn't their money, and they wouldn't say who it was from. It seems that some stranger had heard about my money problem and decided to help. This meant so much to me, as without it I would not have been able to go to university.
Finish your story by saying why it is important to you or why you remember it.

一個好人一生最好的部分，是他細小的、無名的、不被人記得的出于善良和愛的行為。
