完形填空。
When I was eleven, I had a paper route (送报纸). One of my
1 , an old lady, taught me a lesson I've
never forgotten.
One winter afternoon, my friend and I were throwing stones
2 the roof of the old lady's house. We
wanted to
3 the stones roll down to the roofs edge and shoot out into the yard. I found a smooth rock.
As I threw it, the stone slipped from my hand and crashed (撞击) through a small window. We turned
around and ran
4 quickly.
At first, I was too scared about getting
5 to worry about the old lady's window. But after a few days,
I started to feel guilty. She still
6 me with a smile whenever I gave her the paper, but I no longer felt
7 .
I decided to
8 my paper delivery money, and in three weeks I had seven dollars. I put the money in
an envelope with a note
9 that I was sorry for breaking her window and hoped she could use my money
to
10 it.
I snuck up (悄悄走到) to the old lady's house and slid (偷偷塞进) the envelope under her door. It made
me feel much better.
The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and
11 her warm smile. She game me a bag of cookies.
I thanked her and continued my route.
After eating several cookies, I felt an envelope inside the bag. When I opened it, I was greatly
12 . Inside
were the seven dollars and a note that said, "I'm proud of you."
