An interesting thing happened to me last Sunday. The sunshine was 31 beautiful that I decided to drive in the country. 32 my way home, my car stopped. I was out of gasoline(汽油) on a road away from a town
. I decided to 33 along the road until I found someone who could sell me some gasoline.
I had walked almost a long way before I finally found a big 34 near the road. I was 35 to see it because it was getting dark.I knocked on the door and a small old lady with long white hair answered. She 36 , “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Come in, please. I got 37 ready for you.”
“But I’ve come here only for some gasoline.” I answered. I didn’t know 38 she was talking about. I didn’t understand her.
“Oh, Tony! Gasoline? You used to love tea.”
I quickly explained that my car was out of gasoline, 39 she didn’t seem to hear me. She just kept calling me Tony and talking about how 40 it had been since she had seen me. She was talking so strangely that I wanted to 41 . As soon as she went to get the tea, I went out of the house as 42 as possible.
I was so happy when I saw 43 house by the road. I was able to get some gasoline. When I told the man about the old lady, he said, “Oh, that’s Helen. She lives all by herself in that big house. She’s 44 , but she wouldn’t hurt anyone. She is still waiting for the man whom she was going to marry(结婚) twenty-five years ago. The man was named Tony. The day before they married, he went away and 45 came back.’’ I understood!

Young man: It's like a looking glass. I'll try to remember.
Policeman: You should also remember
“mm left”.Young man: Now let me think. Turn left! In England left is right, and right is wrong. Am I right?
