I remember driving to Palm Springs from San Diego two
Thanksgivings ago. None of us pictured a snowstorm on our California vacation, but one hour into the drive, the first snowflake fell. My eyes lit up. I’d missed snow. Seeing it land on a prickly cactus(仙人掌)made my tears well up. How I longed for cold Minnesota, my hometown.
As the altitude rose, the storm got fiercer. It wasn’t long before we had no choice but to pull over. As our car slid to a stop, I looked into the distance. A line of cars as long as the Mississippi River was lined up.
Just then, a car came from behind, suddenly changing direction to avoid hitting our car. The driver, an old man, slammed on the brakes(刹车), and his car drifted across the path. It didn’t take us too long to realize his car was awfully near the edge of the mountain and slowly creeping(慢慢移动)more and more towards the side of the cliff.
Suddenly, ten people who were sitting in their cars jumped out. From the car window, I watched an inspiring scene. Four people took the chains off their own cars’ tires(轮胎)and put them on the old man’s tires. One person shoveled(铲)the snow out from his tires and tried to break the ice with his boot. Just as the old man’s car and all his belongings were about to be lost off the edge of the cliff, people stepped up and let their kind hearts override the snowstorm.
Though it was $-30°\mathrm{C}$, my heart was as warm as ever. This act of kindness just reminded me how thankful I am for people and moments like these.
