冰冷的手(Cold hands)

i was cleaning out the pockets of my six-year-old's winter coat, when i found a pair of mittens in each pocket. thinking that one pair must not be enough to keep her hands warm. i asked her why she was carrying two pairs of mittens in her coat. she replied, "i've been doing this for a long time, mom. you see, some kids come to school without mittens and if i carry another pair, i can share with them and then their hands won't get cold."

在掏空我那六歲小女兒外套口袋時,我發現口袋裡各有一雙手套。我以為一定是一雙手套不夠溫暖她的雙手了,於是問她為什麼在外套里放兩雙手套。她回答說:“我這樣做了很久了,媽媽,你想想,有些小朋友沒有帶手套就來上學了,如果我多帶一雙,我就可以給他們用,那么他們的手就不會凍著了。”
