Elizabeth Clay was driving her old car home when she got a flat tire(爆胎). Unluckily, there was no spare tire in the trunk(后备箱).
A couple(夫妻） who were driving down the road stopped to help Clay. The couple picked her up and drove her to a gas station nearby. But when they arrived, they found that the gas station didn't have the right kind of tire for her car. So the couple invited Clay to go to their home.
The couple called around to find a right tire, but couldn't find anyone who had one. They finally decided to let her use their car. They gave her the keys and encouraged her to drive it, saying they wouldn't need it over the holiday.
Clay was surprised. "I'm going to South Carolina for two weeks," she told them.
"We know," they said. "We'll be here when you get back. Here's our number if you need to get in touch with us."
Clay watched as the couple put her bags into the car and sent her on her way. Two weeks later, when she returned, she found her old car—now cleaned inside and out and fitted with three new tires.
"Thank you so much," she said. "You didn't need to do this." The couple said, "It's our pleasure to help others." Clay realized how good helping others feels and decided to do the same.
