We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to the patients at the clinic.One evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful-looking man. Hes hardly taller than my eight-year-old son. “Good evening. Ive come to see if youve a room. I came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and theres no bus till morning.” He told me hed been hunting for a room since noon but with no success. “I guess its my faceI know it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments” For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep in this chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”I told him we would find him a bed. When I had finished the dishes, I talked with him. He told me he fished for a living to support his five children, and his wife, who was hopelessly crippled (残疾的) from a back injury. He didnt tell it by way of complaint. Next morning, just before he left, as if asking a great favor, he said, “Could I come back and stay the next time?” He added, “Your children made me feel at home.”On his next trip he arrived a little after seven in the morning. As a gift, he brought a big fish and the largest oysters (牡蛎) I had ever seen. I knew his bus left at 4:00 a.m. and I wondered what time he had to get up in order to do this for us. In the years he came to stay overnight with us and there was never a time that he did not bring us vegetables from his garden. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; 2from him we learned how to accept the bad without complaint when facing the misfortune.21.

Thats something few can claim. Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of saltincluding the beds (though youll sleep on regular mattresses (床垫) and blankets).The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni, a prehistoric dried-up lake thats the worlds biggest salt flat. Builders use the salt from the 4,633-square-mile flat to make the bricks, and glue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries. When rain starts to dissolve the hotel, the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.3Green Magic Nature ResortWhere: Vythiri, IndiaHow much: About $240 a nightWhy its cool: Ridding a pulley(滑轮)-operated lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure.
