Question

完形填空。

Terry was a middle-aged leather trader whose repeated failure in career made him a depressed man, often   1   that he had been cheated by others. One day he told his wife he was so   2   with the city that he had to leave.      So his family moved to another city. It was the evening of a weekend. When Terry and his wife were busily   3   up their new home, the light suddenly went out. Terry was regretful to have forgotten bringing along candles and had to wait   4   in a low mood. Just then he heard light, hesitant (犹豫的) knocks on his door that were clearly audible (听到) in the   5   night.      "Who's it?" he wondered, since Terry was a   6   to this city. And this was the moment he especially hated to be   7  , so he went to the door and opened it   8  . At the door was a little girl, shyly asking, "Sir, do you have candles? I'm your neighbor." "No," answered Terry in anger and shut the door violently. "What a nuisance (讨厌)!" he complained over it with his wife. "No sooner had we settled down than the neighbor came to   9   things."      After a while, the door was knocked again. He opened it and found the same girl outside.  10  this time she was holding two candles, saying, "My grandma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles. She  11  me here to give you these." Terry was very  12  by what he saw.      At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his  13  in life. It was his  14  and harshness (刻薄) with other people. The person who had cheated him in life was  15  nobody else but himself, for his eyes had been blurred (蒙蔽) by his unsympathetic mind.
