Kindness is not always a straight line. I was traveling in a city of Central America with a friend, and we were  36  a post office. We were standing on a street corner and did not know what the Spanish word for “post office” was. Some 37  guy could see we were  38  and came up to us. We tried to  39  what we were looking for, and he said, “Oh, yes, yes,” and  40  us, with our backpacks on in the middle of the heat of the day, down all these little crooked (弯曲的) streets. It seemed like we walked for miles.  41 , he pointed us toward a  42  without any name on it. But when we  43 , it turned out not to be the post office.

When we came out and were 44  standing around looking  45 , someone else soon came up. She asked if we  46  help. Again, we tried to explain  47  we were going. The woman said she  48  where the post office was. We headed off as she  49  us to another building which also had no  50  and which also turned out not to be the post office.

At this point we decided that  51  we didn’t know where we were, we were not going to listen to anybody else. But then another person came up and said, “I can  52  you.” We said “No, thank you,”  53  he was very insistent (坚持的). He actually grabbed me by the hand and dragged (拉着) me through the streets. Circling around, we came back to the first  54  we had been standing on when we began. The  55  pointed across the street, and there was the post office.
