along Zhonghua Road when the driver saw an
old man lying on the side of the road. A woman
next to him was shouting for help.
The bus driver, 24-year-old Wang Ping, stopped the bus without thinking twice. He
got off and asked the woman what
happened. She said that the man had a
heart problem and should go to the hospital.
Mr. Wang knew he had to act quickly. He
told the passengers that he must take the
man to the hospital. He expected most or all
of the passengers to get off and wait for the
next bus. But to his surprise, they all agreed
to go with him. Some passengers helped Mr.
Wang to move the man onto the bus.Thanks to Mr. Wang and the passengers, the
doctors saved the man in time. “It’s sad
that many people don’t want to help others
because they don’t want any trouble,” says
one passenger. “But the driver didn’t think
about himself. He only thought about saving a
life.”3b. Read the passage again and
