Last year, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, DC. I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?”When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. Immediately, I pulled out all of my change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her. But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office.”In an instant, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice—I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be. I hated what I saw in myself.The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in the US at the age of 15. I started my new life with two suitcases, my brother and sister. Through the years, I have been a doorkeeper, cashier and pizza delivery driver among many other humble (卑微的) jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer.In my own life, I have experienced prejudice. I remember a time—at the age of 17 —when I was a busboy, I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me.But now, living in my American middle—class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am, where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the streets cured me of my blindness. She reminded me of my belief in humility (谦虚). By the way, I helped that lady to the post office. I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.小题1:How did the writer give the blind woman money? A．In a modest way. B．In a polite way. C．In an impatient way.

还是自己翻译吧。 意思到位就行啦。不一定跟语法准确契合。信达雅这是大牛们的境界。 去年，我到华盛顿特区观光旅行。我听到一个声音说，你能帮我吗？当我转过身来，我看到一个盲老妇人伸出手。我立刻拿出我所有的钱放在她的手，甚至没有看她。但盲妇人笑着说，我不想要你的钱。我只是需要帮助找到邮局。 在一瞬间，我意识到我做了什么。我有偏见―我判断我认为她需要做什么。我恨我看到了渺小的自己。 我忘记的事情是，我曾也是一个移民。我离开了洪都拉斯，15岁时来到美国。我带着两个负担开始我的新生活，我的弟弟和妹妹。多年来，我一直做一个看门人、收银员和比萨饼送货司机在很多其他的卑微的工作，最终我成为网络工程师。在我自己的生活，我有偏见。记得在我17岁的时候――当我是一个工人，我听到一个小男孩的父亲告诉他，如果他不在学校做得很好，他就会像我一样。但现在，住在我的美国中产阶级的生活里，人们很容易忘记过去，忘记我是谁，我去过的地方，并失去了我想去的地方。在街上盲妇人治愈我心灵。她提醒我谦逊的信念。 顺便说一下，我帮助那位女士到了邮局。 我希望能感谢她给我的无价的教育。
