    Edgar felt quite 1 at the 2 of his first swim of the summer.     3 the sun shining down so strongly, the sea was certain to be      4 enough. He walked quickly along the seafront towards the steps      5 led on to the sands. He smiled 6 at the passers-by. He had just     smiled and 7 his 8 to an elderly lady      9 a man with a camera caught his arm and stopped him. Edgar heard a little clicking noise from     the camera.

                   

      "Your photo, sir, in wonderful color, in just one moment if you     please," said the man in one breath.

                   

      Then he took out the      10 and held it 11 his hand and was waving     it to Edgar. In a moment he handed it over, and Edgar saw the bright     blue of his shirt half 12 the picture.     "Seventy pence, sir," the man said.

                   

         "Seventy pence," Edgar repeated 13 ," For this?" He stared      14 the photo.

                   

    "They are usually 85, sir, but for a single object I make a cut-price     offer. It's the best price 15 you'll get here."

                   

         "You'll have to make a better offer," Edgar said. It was a good photo,     he thought, so bright and clear.

      "I've never paid so much      21 a snap in my life. It simply isn't 22     that kind of money. It's not as I need the thing. Look, I'll give     you 25. "

                   

      "No, I can't do that. Each of these snaps costs me 50p, so you     see … "

                   

      "Then I'll give you 50p and that's that."

                   

         "Let me see, then." The man suddenly took the photo out of Edgar's     hand." I can't 23 any more time with you. It's 70p      24 I keep it."

I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph   37   we realized we were   38   . Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand new $20 bill. I was so   39    because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on   40   seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line.  41   I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I   42   I had not actually handed any money to the cashier. I had just   43   out, and nobody had noticed. I felt terrible.

My conscience(良心) opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite. I couldn’t   44    over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and   45  for my stolen pizza.

This reflects the saying, “A coward(懦夫) dies a thousand deaths; a hero dies once.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that incident at least a thousand times. If I had been a “  55  ” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice.
