On Wednesday afternoon Annie took the bus into town to shop in the market. For an hour or so she would walk up and down between the stalls looking at everything, buying here and there, and   1  a sharp lookout for the bargains that were something to be haD．And then, with all the   2  she needs bought she would leave the market for the   3  of the town to spend another hour   4  she liked best, looking in furniture-shop windows.

One Wednesday she found a  5  shop full of the most delightful things, with a   6  inviting anyone to walk in and look round without   7  they had to buy something. Annie hesitated a moment   8  stepping through the doorway where, almost at once, she stopped   9  before a green armchair. There was a card on the chair which  10  ,“This fine chair is yours for less than a pound a week,” and very small at the bottom, “Cash price eighty-nine pounds fifty.” A pound a week …Why, she could almost pay that out of her housekeeping money and never   11  it!

A voice at her shoulder made her   12  .“Can I help you, Madam?” She looked   13  at the assistant who had come softly to her  14 

“Oh, well, no,” she said, “I was just   15  .”

“We have chairs of all kinds in the   16  . If you'll just come up, you will find something to  17  you.”

Annie, worried at the thought of being   18  to buy something she didn't   19  , left the shop   20  .

       A German taxi-driver, Franz Bussman, recently found his brother who was thought to have been killed twenty years before.

　　While on a walking tour with his wife, he stopped to talk to a workman. After they had gone on, Mrs. Bussman said that the workman was closely like her husband and even suggested that he might be his brother. Franz laughed at the idea, pointing out that his brother had been killed in action during the war. Though Mrs. Bussman knew this story quite well, she thought that there was a chance in a million that she might be right.

　　A few days later, she sent a boy to the workman to ask him if his name was Hans Bussman. Needless to say, the man's name was Hans Bussman. And he really was Franz's long-lost brother. When the brothers were reunited, Hans explained how it was that he was still alive.

After having being wounded towards the end of the war, he had been sent to hospital and was separated from his unit. The hospital had been bombed and Hans had made his way back into Western Germany on foot. Meanwhile, his unit was lost and all records of him had been destroyed. Hans returned to his family house, but the house had been bombed. Guessing that his family had been killed during an air-raid(空袭), Hans settled down in a village fifty miles away where he had remained ever since.
