Suddenly, I heard a   3  open and slam shut at the back of the church. Quick   4  hurried along the floor. A young man looked around in a   5  and then sat next to me. His eyes were full of tears.
“I’m  6 ,” he explained, though no explanation was   7 . After several eulogies (悼文), he leaned over and commented, “Why do they keep   8  Mary by the name of ‘Margaret’?” “Because that was her name, Margaret.

I believe you’re at the   11  funeral, sir.”
The solemnness (庄严) of the occasion   12  with the realization of the man’s mistake bubbled (充溢) up inside me and came out as  13 . I peeked at the misguided man seated beside me. He was laughing,   14 . I imagined Mother laughing. At the   15  “Aman”, we darted(猛冲) out a door and into the parking lot.
“I do believe we’ll be the   16  of the town,” he smiled. He said his name was Rick and that   17  he had missed his aunt’s funeral, he asked me out for a cup of coffee.

The old man walked slowly into the restaurant. With head tilted, and shoulders bent forward he leaned on his trusty stick with each unhurried step. His torn cloth jacket, patched trousers, worn out shoes, and warm personality made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd. He stopped, turned with his whole body, and winked at a little girl seated by the door. She flashed a big smile right back at him.

A young waitress named Mary watched him walk toward a table by the window. She ran over to him, and said, “Here, Sir. Let me give you a hand with that chair.” She pulled the chair away from the table. Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated. Then she moved the table up close to him, and leaned his stick against the table where he could reach it.

In a soft, clear voice he said, "Thank you, Miss. And bless you for your kind gestures."

“You're welcome, Sir.” She replied. “And my name is Mary. I'll be back in a moment, and if you need anything at all in the mean time, just wave at me!”

After he had finished a hearty meal, Mary brought him the change from his ticket. He left it on the table. She helped him and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, “Come back and see us, Sir!” He turned and nodded a thank-you. “You are very kind.” he said softly, smiling.

When Mary went to clean his table, she almost fainted. Under his plate she found a business card, and a note scribbled on a napkin. Under the napkin was a one-hundred-dollar bill.

The note on the napkin read, “Dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness. Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you.”

The man she had waited on was the owner of the restaurant where she worked. This was the first time that she, or any of his employees had ever seen him in person.

1.The old man left $ 100 under the napkin because he ________.

A.was grateful for Mary's kindness

B.wanted to encourage Mary to do more good deeds

C.appreciated Mary's kindness and work attitude

D.thought highly of the tasty meal in the restaurant

2.What do we know about Mary and the old man?

A.Mary knew who the old man was from the note.

B.Mary recognized the old man when she served him.

C.The old man intended to have Mary as his secretary.

D.Mary had never seen her boss face to face before.

3.It can be inferred that the old man went to the restaurant to ________.

A.have a good meal

B.enjoy good service

C.have an on-site visit

D.show his generosity

4.The passage is developed mainly by________.

5.The best title of the passage would be ________.
