Santa Can Come before Christmas
It was last June. I entered a supermarket to pick some vegetables, when a young man asked me, “Can you tell me where the ________ counter（柜台） is? ”
“Well, the milk is in the lower right corner.” I replied.
Picking up my things, I finally came to the milk counter where I met the same man ________ almost 10 bottles of milk in his hands. I asked him ________ he needed a trolley or not?
“Sure, thank you.” he answered.
I was ________ he was still picking more bottles and after a few minutes his trolley was full of milk. There were over twenty bottles of milk ________ it.
I laughed and asked, “Why so many bottles?”
He smiled and said, “These are for my street dogs. Today, I want to be a Santa for ________ .”
I said, “Well, it’s too ________ for you to be a Santa. It is still June and Christmas comes in December.”
He ________ at me and walked a few steps, as if he wanted to say something but he left the counter without saying ________ .
________ ,we met again at the bread counter.
“So these bread and cakes are also for the street dogs, Mr. Santa.”
He smiled and said, “Yes, these are also for the dogs and I love to be Mr. Santa in the month of June, Santa is a symbol of surprises and ________ . Santa comes in December as we ________ him around Christmas. But in real life there is a Santa in each one of us, no matter which month it is. Maybe when you offered help to me by getting me a trolley, there was a ________ Santa in you. When we offer food to a poor man or a(n) ________ to someone who is caught in the rain, we are being Santa there, So when you offer help to others or get help from others, just think that Santa has come all the way for you.”
