I was on my lunch break and had left the office to get something to eat．On the way, I saw a busker （卖艺人）．This wasn't something out of the 36 ; there was always someone 37 enough to busk near the office buildings during lunch．
As I walked past him, holding some 38 in my hand, I 39 to myself that he was only going to use the money to 40 his addict

At the 49 of the day as I walked to the train station, I saw the busker packing up．I 50 him pick up the hat and 51 the money into a small plastic bag．Then he walked over to a cafe counter and 52 the entire contents into a tin collecting for a bushfire appeal （募捐）．
He was busking for charity．I realized just how 53 I had been．I now donate any 54 I have to charity tins and enjoy the feeling of happiness for the rest of the day．You could say I'm now addicted to the feeling of 55 ．
