In a recent airing of "Unsolved Mysteries", there was a young boy who was the victim of the holocaust(大屠杀).He'd been 1 in a work camp for several years and somehow had managed to survive the 2 of his imprisonment.
The story was of a boy - now in his sixties - an d his quest to find an American soldier who had 3 a kindness to him by 4 some food. It might seem 5 ,but to this child, who had seen nothing but 6 and inhumanity for as long as he could remember, it was a 7 that marked a turning point in his life, for he had lost hope .When he was liberated by the American forces, he was dying. He, 8 needed food. As he was staggering along the road a young soldier 9 down from his tank and gave him some of his supplies. With this one act of generosity, a kind American had aroused the 10 again that there really was some good in the world. And the boy never 11 it. The boy later went to America, raised a family, became successful and worked hard to repay the 12 he had received with his own.
Actually there were so many similar acts of generosity that it would be almost impossible to know for sure who the soldier was.
