When Dave was eighteen, he bought a second-hand car for ￡200 so that he could travel to and from work more 36 than by bus. It worked quite well for a few years, but it got so old, and it was costing him _37 much in repairs, that he decided that he had better 38 it.
He asked among his friends to see if anyone was 39 to buy a cheap car, but they all knew that it was falling to pieces, so 40 of them had any desire to buy it.
Dave’s friend Sam saw that he was 41 when they met one evening, and said, “What’s 42 , Dave?” Dave told him, and Sam answered, “Well, what about advertising(登广告) it in the paper? You may 43_more for it that way than the cost of the advertisement!” Thinking that Sam’s 44 was reasonable, he put an advertisement in an evening paper, which read: “For sale: small car, 45 very little gas, only two owners. Bargain at ￡50.”
For two days after the advertisement first appeared, there was no 46_. but then on the Saturday evening he had an enquiry (咨询). A man rang up and said he would like to 47 him about the car. “All right.” Dave said, feeling happy. He asked the man whether ten o’clock the next morning would be 48_ or not. “Fine,” the man said, “and I’ll 49 my wife. We want to go for a ride in it to 50 it.”
The next morning, at a quarter to ten, Dave parked the car in the square outside his front door, 51 to wait there for the people who had 52 his advertisement. Even Dave had to 53 that the car really looked like a wreck (残破的车). Then, soon after he had got the car as 54 as it could be, a police car stopped just behind him and a policeman got out. He looked at Dave’s car and then said, “Have you reported this _55 to us yet, sir?”

My husband is an engineer. Since we met, he has always been the rock in my life. I knew he had his feet 36 planted on the ground ,and it seemed that no matter what else went 37 , he would be the constant one.
Three years of romance and two years of marriage later, I began to feel 38 of him because he never brought me flowers , he never 39 me, and nothing had changed in our marriage.

“I’ll stay if you have a good answer 44 this question,” I replied coldly。“If I asked for a 45
growing on a cliff, and getting it for me 46 certain death, would you still do so ?”
His face grew troubled.“Can I give you the answer tomorrow morning ?” With that , my heart 47 . He couldn’t even give me an answer 48 away.
The next morning , I found he was 49 .However, I found a note under a warm glass of milk . My eyes 50 misty as I was reading it
“Dear, I’ll give you my 51 .
After you do typing for a long time , I need my 52 to do it for you.
Every time you leave the house , you forget your keys . I need my legs to run 53 and open the door for you… that’s why I cannot pick the flower for you….”
With tears 54from my eyes , I opened the door. And there he was , with an extremely worried look on his face, waving the packet he had in his hand in front of me.

I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I felt blindly in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had 31 the search of jailers (people who guard prisoners). I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could 32 get it to my lips. But I had no matches, they had taken those.
I 33 through the bars at my jailer. He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him, “Have you got a light?” He looked at me, 34 and came over to light my cigarette. As he came close and 35 the match, his eyes accidentally locked with mine. At that moment, I 36 . I don't know why I did that. Perhaps it was 37 , perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very 38 not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a 39 jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and 40 a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed 41 , looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.
I kept smiling
at him, now 42 of him as a person and not just a jailer. “Do you have 43 ?” he asked. “Yes, here.” I took out my wallet 
and nervously felt for the 44 of my family. He, too, took out the pictures of his family and began to talk about his plans and hopes for them. My eyes were 45 with tears. I said that I 46 that I'd never see my family again, never have the chance to see them grow up. 47 came to his eyes, too. 48 , without another word, he 49 my cell and silently led me out. There, at the edge of town, he 50 me. And without another word, he turned back toward the town.
My life was saved by a smile. Yes, the smile ― the unaffected, unplanned, natural connection between people.
