完形填空。
My husband has been ill in hospital for two months and I have learned to make do with very little (凑合过
日子).
One Sunday afternoon, I went to buy a
1 for my daughter with my friend. A woman who was also
buying books in the bookstore saw me and said, "I
2 you must be having a hard time." I just smiled and
said, "I'm okay. I have eight dollars and I have food at home, so I'll be
3 ."
About ten
4 later she came up to me and said,"Can I take a look at the book that you've
5 ? It seems
very interesting!" I said all right and gave it to her.
Just then
6 called me and I immediately went out.
7 I returned she thanked me and
8 my book.
On my way home my friend who was driving said, "You told me you didn't had much
9 ?" I replied,"I
don't."
She said, "Oh yes, you do!" I assured (向—保证) her I
10 had two dollars left, but still she insisted I
11 plenty of money.
"Look at your book in your bag," she
12 ."There's a hundred dollar bill in it." I turned over the page and
got so
13 ! There actually was a hundred dollar
14 that seemed to have fallen out of my book!
I
15 her, very surprised, and said, "I don't know
16 that came from. I have no idea because I certainly
did not have a hundred
17 !"
I thought and thought about the money for days after that. Then I realized it must have come from
18 who asked to borrow my book in the bookstore. How
19 of her! And what a wonderful gift to
20 when
I am down to my last two dollars!
