The old man shuffled slowly into the restaurant.[color=Red]① With head tilted, and shoulders bent forward, he leaned on his trusty cane with each unhurried step.[/color]

His tattered cloth jacket, patched trousers, worn-out shoes, and warm personality made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd. [color=Red]② Unforgettable were his pale blue eyes that sparkled like diamonds, large rosy cheeks, and thin lips held in a tight, steady smile.[/color]

He stopped, turned with his whole body, and winked at a little girl seated by the door. She flashed a big grin right back at him. A young waitress named Mary watched him shuffle toward a table by the window.

Mary ran over to him, and said, “Here, Sir. Let me give you a hand with that chair.”
Without saying a word, he smiled and nodded a thank-you. She pulled the chair away from the table. [color=Red]③ Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated.[/color] Then she scooted the table up close to him, and leaned his cane against the table where he could reach it.

In a soft, clea voice he said, “Thank you, Miss. And bless you for your kind gestures.”
“You’re welcome, Sir.” She replied. “And my name is Mary. I’ll be back in a moment, and if you need anything at all in the mean time, just wave at me!”

1. 随着脑袋的倾斜和肩膀前倾的方向,和依着他的拐杖迈着刻不容缓的步伐

2. 难忘的是,他淡蓝色的眼睛那个闪耀的像钻石一样,通红的脸颊和薄薄的嘴唇保持着沉着的微笑

3.沉稳的他用一个胳膊,她帮他拿出在前面的椅子,并且让他能够舒服的坐下
