阅读下面短文，从先入为主后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

　　Money is a blessing when it is used correctly．　　1　　 is true of all other good things．They bless if used 　　2　　;they surse（诅咒）when misused．Many people do not seem to know 　　3　　 money is for．They want it above all other things．But they want to spend it chiefly on 　　4　　．

　　Some boys and girls appear to 　　5　　 that money is used to buy good clothes,foods,toys and amusements．Some also seem to think that money is used to buy leisure（空闲）．They 　　6　　 that the greatest happiness is to 　　7　　 without work．But that is not at all what money is for．We should get nearer to the 　　8　　 than that．

　　Money is our circulating medium（流通手段）in trade．Families need it to buy things they must 　　9　　．In this way society 　　10　　,and the world of traffic prospers（繁荣）．Money means food,clothing,housing,schools,books,wise amuse ment,and the 　　11　　 of doing good．

　　Of course money is not something to store．Its value 　　12　　 its use．A million gold dollars would have been 　　13　　 no more than a million stones 　　14　　 Robinson Crusoe on his island home．There was nothing to buy,and 　　15　　,no use for money．And so money that is 　　16　　 stored is of no value．It is not used to buy the necessaries of life,　　17　　 help those who are in need．That is not what money is for．

　　The Bible（《圣经》）　　18　　 that“the love of money is the 　　19　　 of all evil”,That is,money sought only for its own sake（缘故）is the cause of all sorts of evillying,stealing,cheating,robbery,and 　　20　　 murder．This is the best reason for avoiding the love of money．

　　In the summer vacation of 1997,I was fixed with a job．I worked as a(n)　　1　　 at Mr Breen's fruit shop．The fruit shop did．　　2　　 business．Most of the trade came from the housewives who lived in the neighbourhood,　　3　　 he also had regular customers who arrived outside the shop in cars．Mr Breen 　　4　　 them all by name and they sometimes even had their order already made up,always 　　5　　．me to carry it out to their car．They were clearly long-standing customers,and I 　　6　　 they must have stayed faithful to him 　　7　　 he had promised to sell good quality 　　8　　．He had a way with them— I had to 　　9　　 that．He called every woman “madam”for a start,　　10　　 those who clearly were not,but when he 　　11　　 it,it did not sound like flattery（奉承）．It just sounded 　　12　　 in an old-fashioned way．He was a great chatter 　　13　　,If he did not know them,he would greet them with a few 　　14　　 about the weather,　　15　　．he did,he would ask about their families or make 　　16　　,always cutting his cloth 　　17　　 his customers．Whatever their bills came to,he 　　18　　 gave them back the few odd pence（零钱）,and I am sure they thought he was very generous（慷慨）．But I thought he was the opposite．He never 　　19　　 anything away．He was always looking for nothing．
