Twenty years ago，I drove a taxi for a living．I met l people．But none touched me 2 than a woman I picked up late one night．
I received a call from 3 in a quiet part of town．When I arrived at 2：30 a．m．,the building was 4 except for a single light in a ground floor window．I walked to the door and 5 ．“Just a minute，”answered a 6 ，elderly voice．After a long pause，the door opened．A small woman 7 her 80s stood before me．Beside her was a small suitcase．I took it to the taxi．and then returned to 8 the woman．She took my arm and we walked 9 toward the roadside．
Seated，she gave me 10 ．“I’m on my way to a hospice(临终关怀医院)．I'm in no hurry．Can you drive through downtown?” I saw her eyes shining with 11 in the rearview mirror．“I don’t have any 12 left．”she continued．“The doctor says I don’t have very long．”
During the next two hours’ 13 , sometimes she asked me to 14 in front of a particular building or corner and she 15 stare into the darkness．When we got to the destination，she asked，“How much do I 16 you?” “Nothing，”I said．“You 17 make a living．”she answered．“I have 18 passengers，”I replied，and gave her a hug． She held onto me 19 ．“You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,” she said．“Thank you.”
After that，I drove aimlessly，lost in thought．People usually believe that our lives center upon great moments． 20 great moments often catch us unaware，beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one．
