In front of us, in a face-to-face seat, _16__ six young men in their early 20s. They were strong and 　17 , and I disliked them immediately. They were laughing loudly, obviously 18 themselves and they 　19 a foreign language.

As we went quickly 20 the countryside, I kept an eye on them as they joked around. Sometimes they took a look in our direction. When two of them got 21 , I relaxed a little. The rest of them 　 22 to laugh and joke in their own language.

When we finally arrived at our 　23　 , only one of them was left on the train. He was obviously 24 too and as I struggled towards him with my heavy luggage(行李), he reached out and asked in English: “Want a hand with that, mate?”

He 25 the heavier bag up the station steps for us. We were pleasantly surprised and very grateful.
