My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It is funny now but it wasn’t at that time.
Last Friday, after doing all family 31 in town, I wanted a rest 32 catching the train, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the 33 coffee shop—that cheap, self–service place with long 34 to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to 35 a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next 36 . It was one of those wild-looking youngsters, 37 dark glasses and worn clothes, and 38 colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did 39 me was that he had started to eat my chocolate.
Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid 40 —and really I was rather 41
about him, I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee, and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me 42 , then he took a second piece of my chocolate.

The boy 46 me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out,” This 47 is crazy.” Everyone stared. That was embarrassing(令人难堪的)enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to 48 . My face went red—as red as his hair—when I 49 I’d made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate that he had been taking. There was mine, unopened, just 50 my newspaper.
