Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.

I lived with my friends in a rented house. We were all a bit a1. of our landlord, an unfriendly middle-aged man who was “all business” when we signed the lease(租约). He gave us a lecture about p2. the rent on time and maintaining(维修) the house.

During the fall semester, my roommates and I threw a party. We sent i3. to our friends and told everyone to come to our house on Friday night. We had a great time that night and the last guests left in the early morning.

Tired and sleepy, we decided to go to sleep. However, at 7:00 o’clock, we were awakened by our landlord, who was k4. on the door. Embarrassedly, we let him in, expecting his anger. Instead, he picked up a party invitation that had been laying on the sidewalk and asked, “ Why didn’t you girls invite me?” He came into the house, made a minor repair, and s5. a few minutes helping us pick up trash from the yard.

A few months later, I made a mathematical e6. while balancing my checkbook and my bank soon notified me that I had bounced a check. I was mortified when I discovered that it was my rent and that I had to notify my landlord. I figured that he viewed my housemates and I as irresponsible after the party accident and this would prove him right. I gathered the courage to call him and explained what had happened. He said , “I have a daughter about your age, and the same thing happened to her once. Would you like to wait until next month and send a double payment then?”

I’ve never forgotten our landlord’s kindness and understanding. He also taught me an important lesson about not j7. a book by its cover. I’m proud to say that I have not bounced a check since(though I have thrown a few more parties)!
