When Alice started to cycle home from Jenny’s house, she wasn’t nervous. She was certainly not afraid of the dark.36, it was only a 15-minute ride home. But halfway there, she began to wish that she hadn’t been so 37. As she rounded a sharp bend, it suddenly 38 cold — very cold.

With her heart beating fast, she struggled so hard to move 39 that she didn’t hear the car which suddenly appeared beside her. She stopped by the road. The big black car also 40. Slowly, the passenger-window began to slide down. Alice held her breath. In the soft light inside the car, something 41. Then, the light brightened and Alice was staring at a sweet, grey-haired old lady. “Hello, dear,” said the old lady. “I need 42. I’m afraid I’m lost. I need to find the nearest airport. I must be there in the next five minutes.” “Airport? You 43 are lost,” Alice said. “You need to go back five kilometers 44 you reach the T-junction.

There was an American writer who often told such a story to his friends and readers:
It was an exhibition of the artists’ works organized by the Red Cross. I was invited as a special guest to take part in the exhibition. During this period, two cute girls of 16 or 17 years old came to me and asked for my signature(签名).
“I haven’t brought my pen. Is the pencil okay?” I asked. In fact I knew they wouldn’t refuse. I just wanted to show a well-known writer’s good manners to the common readers.
“Certainly,” the young girls readily agreed. I could see they were very excited. Of course, their excitement also made me more pleased with myself. One of the girls handed her notebook to me. I took out my pencil, wrote a few words of encouragement, and signed my name. The girl read my signature, frowned(皱眉), looked at me carefully and asked, “Aren’t you Robert Charboss?”
“NO,”I told her proudly, “I’m the author of Alice Adams, the winner of two Pulitzer Prizes.”
The young girl turned to another one, and said, “Mary, lend your eraser to me.”
At the moment, all my pride turned into a bubble (泡沫) immediately. Since then, I always warn(告诫)myself:Don’t think too highly of yourself even though you are so outstanding(杰出的).
