Mr Black once decided to travel by air on business because of some reason. He liked　16 beside a window when he was　17 ,so when he got onto the plane, he　18　 a window seat. He　19  that all of them had already been taken  20  one, and there was a soldier sitting in the seat beside this one. Mr Black was 21  that he had not taken the one by the window, but, anyhow, he at once went towards 22 .

When he  23 it, however, he saw that there was a notice on it. It was written 24  ink and said,“This is reserved for proper load balance. Thank you.” Mr Black had never seen such a notice in a plane  25 ,but he thought that the plane  26   be carrying something particularly heavy in 27  baggage room which made  28  necessary to have passengers properly balanced, so he walked on and  29  another empty seat, not beside the  30 ,to sit in.

Two or three other people tried  31   in the window seat beside the soldier, but they, too, 32  the notice and went on. Then, when the plane was nearly full, a very beautiful girl stepped into the plane. The soldier, who was 33  the passengers coming in, quickly took the notice off the seat beside him－and  34   that way succeeded in  35   the company of the girl during the whole of the trip.
