We arrived in Spain for the first time a few weeks ago. I decided to 31 a car because we had sold the one we had in England before 32 home. Yesterday the sales office rang us to say the car was 33 . I had tried out a model like it before, but as I was not yet 34 driving in this city, my wife did not want me to collect it 35 so we went together to 36 it. We paid for the car and 37 the papers. They told us that there was 38 petrol（汽油）to take us to a garage, where we could fill up. The 39 garage to the office was about 100 yards away and we got there 40 .But when I turned into the main road I suddenly saw a lot of cars racing 41 me. I got out of 42 as fast as I could by backing into the garage 43 and the man behind 44 me.
"It’s such a problem to 45 to drive on the right side, isn’t it?" my wife said. "Yes, if only I had had a few lessons for 46 ," I replied. "You had better go 47 on the way home," my wife said. "You' d be sorry if you had 48 on the first day, wouldn' t you?" While we were talking, the man behind got out of his car and said in good English," Would you mind telling me 49 you are thinking of leaving? 50 are you going to sit in your car all day?"

Never would I forget the other night when I came across an unforgettable sight while watching the Olympics. It was not a gold medal, or a world record broken, but a 36 of determination and courage.
The 37 was swimming and started with only three men on the blocks. Two of them, however, were disqualified(取消资格) due to 38 starts. That left only one to 39 . That would have been difficult enough, not having anyone to race 40 . I watched the man dive off the 41 and knew right away that something was 42 . Now I’m not an expert swimmer but I do know a good dive from a poor one, and this man was far from being a medal winner. When he 43 , it was clear that the man was not out for gold. I listened to the crowd begin to 44 at this poor man that was clearly having a 45 time. Finally he 46 his turn to start back. It was pitiful.

__48___in those few awkward strokes, the crowd had ____49____. No longer were they laughing, but beginning to ____50____.

School was over and I was both mentally and physically tired. I sat at the very front of the bus because of 11 to get home. Sitting at the front makes you 12 out like a shiny coin in a pile of dull pennies.
Janie, the driver, tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere by striking the match of 13 .
I try to mind my manners and 14 listen, but usually I am too busy thinking about my day. On this day, 15, her conversation was worth listening to.
“My father’s sick, ”she said to no one in 16 . 1 could see the anxiety and fear in her eyes. With a sudden change of attitude and interest, I asked, “What’s wrong with him?”
With her eyes wet and her voice tight fighting against the tears, she 17, “Heart trouble.” Her eyes 18 as she continued. “I’ve already lost my mum, so I don’t think I can 19 losing him.”
I couldn’t react. I was 20 . My heart ached for her. I sat on the old, smelly seat thinking of the great 21 my own mother was thrown into when my father died.
I saw how hard it was, 22 still is, for her. I wouldn’t like anyone to go 23 that.
Suddenly I realized Janie wasn’t only a bus driver. That was just her job. She had a 24 world of family and concerns too. I had never thought of her as anything but a driver.
I suddenly felt very25. I realized I had only thought of people as 26 as what their purposes were in my life. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and just considered her 27.
For all I know, I’m just another person in 28 else’s world, and may not even be important. I 29 not have been so selfish and self-centred. Everyone has places to go to, people to see and appointments to 30 . Understanding people is an art.
