阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  In 1837,the historian Carlyle made the first recorded use of the word“queue”(排队).He spoke of the French and their “habit of standing in a queue”.Forty years later Pairs was the best place to wait in line.

  However,queuing became popular in Britain too.The Second World War was the golden age of queuing,and people joined any line in the hope that it was a queue for something to buy.This was the source of many Second World War jokes:Shopkeeper to customer:Excuse me,miss,are you pregnant(怀孕)?Customer:Well,I wash't when I joined the queue.

  Today,according to research in America,we(in Britain)can spend up to 5 years of our lives queuing — as compared to twelve months looking for things we have lost.But things may be changing.Many people no longer have the patience to stand in a queue.The law of the jungle(丛林)has begun to operate at bus stops,with people using their arms to push others out of the way.

  One way to make life easier is to introduce“queue management”.Customers at supermarket cheese counters can now take a ticket with a number which appears on a screen when it is their turn.And while they wait for their number,they can do a bit of shopping.

  In some booking.offices there is also a system telling customers how long they may have to wait before they are served.

  One of the latest technical progress is the use of an electronic scanner(电子识别器)which can read all the contents of your shopping basket or trolley in just a few seconds.If these become popular,queuing in supermarkets may become a thing of the past.

  But some people just like queuing.One man queued all night for Harrods famous January sale,and then returned home for breakfast at nine o'clock the next morning without going into the shop.

Twenty cents! My mind reeled(震惊). I could afford it. I got a weekly allowance of 25 cents, plus some _45_ for odd jobs(零活). But _46_ it was my money, ice cream wasn’t a good use of it. In a fit of _47_, I said, “Well, in that case, I guess I’ll _48_.” My father just said, “Okay, Son.”

I _52_ that generosity(慷慨)goes two ways and gratefulness sometimes costs more than “thank you”. On that day gratefulness would have cost 20 cents and it would have been the _53_ ice cream I’d ever had.

I’ll tell you one more thing. We _54_ another trip the next week. As we _55_ the corner, I said, “Dad, would you like an ice cream today? My treat.”
