I have a Rewards Card for Showcase Cinema that allows me to earn rewards points with each purchase that I make at the theatre and periodically provides me with a free popcorn, soda or movie ticket coupon. I had recently accumulated enough rewards points to obtain a coupon for a free popcorn. 我有一張Shwocase電影院的積分卡，每次消費(fèi)都會(huì)積點(diǎn)，然后定期給我提供免費(fèi)的爆米花，汽水，和電影優(yōu)惠券，最近我的積分可以換免費(fèi)的爆米花了。 Standing in the movie theatre ticket line on Saturday, I noticed just ahead of me, a father with his 2 small boys also waiting to buy their tickets for the Matinee Movie. Knowing that movies can be quite expensive for families nowadays, I tapped the Dad on the shoulder and asked, ‘I have a coupon for free popcorn and don’t plan to use it, would you like it for one of your boys?’ He said, ‘Yeah, sure. That’s great! Thanks!’ and took the coupon. 周六，我正在排隊(duì)買電影票，注意到有一個(gè)父親帶著兩個(gè)孩子就排在我的前面，準(zhǔn)備看日?qǐng)鲭娪埃缃裨陔娪吧系幕ㄤN對(duì)于一個(gè)家庭來(lái)說(shuō)也是有點(diǎn)小貴。于是我拍了下那位父親的肩膀，問道：“我正好有一張爆米花的免費(fèi)優(yōu)惠券，我不打算用了，要不你給其中一個(gè)小朋友來(lái)一份吧。”父親答道，“好的，太棒了，謝謝你！”說(shuō)著手下了優(yōu)惠券。 A few minutes later, after they had purchased their tickets, one of his small sons who appeared to be about 9 or 10 years old, walked up to me and silently held out a shiny penny to show me. I took it and said, ‘Wow that’s cool! It’s really shiny!’ He quietly replied, ‘It’s a 2019’. As I handed it back to him. He pushed the penny towards me once again and quietly said, ‘You can keep it’. Showing my gratitude, I replied, ‘Wow that’s awesome, thank you very much” and asked, ‘Where did you get it!’ and he said quite softly, ‘I found it in my Dad’s car’. I said, ‘Oh that’s cool, thanks! He smiled, quietly turned and walked back to his Dad who returned my smile with a knowing smile of his own. It’s the small special moments like that that can make an ordinary day, special. 幾分鐘以后，他們都買好了票，其中的一個(gè)小男孩，看起來(lái)大概9到10歲的樣子，向我走來(lái)，然后默默地拿出一美分給我看。我拿過來(lái)看著說(shuō)道：“這個(gè)好酷，而且它看起來(lái)很閃。”“它是2019年生產(chǎn)的”小男孩答道，接著我就把硬幣還給了他。他又把硬幣遞過來(lái)說(shuō)：“你可以收下它”。為了表示我的感激我說(shuō)道：“這枚硬幣太棒了，非常感謝！你是從哪里找到的？”“是從我爸爸的車?yán)铩彼p聲說(shuō)道。“很不錯(cuò)呢，謝謝”他笑了，然后轉(zhuǎn)身朝著他爸爸走去，只見他爸爸也報(bào)以微笑，好似他知道事情的始末。這個(gè)美好特別的一刻，讓平凡無(wú)奇的一天變得有意義。
