Miss Wenter was watching TV when the program suddenly stopped. “Sorry to  1 the program. Now we are requested to  2 an important notice from the police station. At about nine this evening, a lady named Mrs Humney was  3 and killed. Anyone who can supply any clue (线索) is requested to report to the  4 . Thank you.” The terrible news made the lonely girl  5 with fear. She couldn’t help looking around, but she didn’t notice that a man was already  6 behind the door to the veranda (阳台).

All of a  7 the man appeared before Miss Wenter. The girl really didn’t know what to do. “Don’t ask for  8 , just put your jewellery on the table; then think over whether I shall be safe to stay up here for the night,” said the robber. That made Miss Wenter even more  9 , but she tried to  10 herself.

Just then came the whistle of a police car, In a little while, someone rang the  11 . The robber said with a gun  12 the girl’s back, “Go to the door and say that you’ve gone to bed. Never let him in.”

In a flash, the girl had an idea. “Oh, who are you?” she said.

“I’m Sergeant Bull, Miss Wenter. Is there something  13 here?”

“No, there isn’t.” Immediately she added loudly,  14 , my elder brother extends his  15 greetings (问候) to you.”

“Thank you. Good night,” Bull replied in the same  16 .

A few minutes later, the sound of the police car going  17 could be heard. “It’s well  18 ,” the robber said with a smile. Then he  19 to the girl. Almost at the same time the glass on the window was broken. The policemen hurried into the room from the veranda. They quickly put handcuffs (手铐) on the robber.

“Miss Wenter, your greetings were so good that it made us take  20 right away,” said Sergeant Bull, because we’ve already known that your elder brother was killed in a robbery half a year ago.”

A Municipal Report(Adapted from a story by O.Henry)(Ⅱ)
Azalea Adair herself opened the door when I knocked.She was about 50 years old.Her white hair was pulled back from her small,tired face.She wore a pale yellow dress.It was old,but very clean.
Azalea Adair led me into her living room.A damaged table,three chairs and an old red sofa were in the center of the floor.
Azalea Adair and I sat down at the table and began to talk.I told her about the magazine's offer an she told me about herself.She was from an old southern family.Her father had been a judge.
Azalea Adair told me she had never traveled or even attended school.Her parents taught her at home with private teachers.We finished our meeting.I promised to return with the agreement the next day, and rose to leave.
At that moment,someone knocked at the back door.Azalea Adair whispered a soft apology and went to answer the caller.She came back a minute later with bright eyes and pink cheeks.She looked ten year younger.“You must have a cup of tea before you go,”she said.She shook a little bell on the table,and small black girl about twelve years old ran into the room.
Azalea Adair opened a tiny old purse and took out a dollar bill.It had been fixed with a piece of blue paper and the upper right hand comer was missing.It was the dollar I had given to Uncle Caesar.“Go to Mr.Baker's store,Impy ,”she said,“and get me 25 cents' worth of tea and ten cents' worth of sugar cakes. And please hurry.”
The child ran out of the room.We heard the back door close.Then the girl screamed.Her cry mixed with a man's angry voice.Azalea Adair stood up.Her face showed no emotion as she left the room.I heard the man's rough voice and her gentle one.Then a door slammed and she came back into the room.“I am sorry,but I won't be able to offer you any tea after all,” she said.“It seems that Mr.Baker has no more tea.Perhaps he will find some for our visit tomorrow.”
We said good-bye.I went back to my hotel.
Just before dinner, Major Wentworth Caswell found me.It was impossible to avoid him.He insisted on buying me a drink and pulled two one-dollar bills from his pocket.Again I saw a torn dollar fixed with blue paper, with a corner missing.It was the one I gave Uncle Caesar.How strange,I thought. I wondered how Caswell got it.
