We 37 often in the hallways when we were coming or going. I 38 spoke, but the only 39 I ever got was a hello from the four – year – old girl.
I usually go out for breakfast and one day when I 40 they were just coming from their apartment and the little girl was holding the door 41 for the others. I 42 in the car doing unnecessary things because I didn’t like to be snubbed（冷落）. The parents were 43 her to hurry and get in the car, I looked up and saw the little girl was 44 holding the door open, 45 for me.
I hurried as much as I could and 46 her. She was smiling from ear to ear. That afternoon I saw a white toy bear, I 47 the little
girl and said to myself, “I 48 she would like that” so I bou
ght it. I wrote a note 49 how much her act of kindness had touched a soft spot in an old man’s 50 .
The next day there 
was a 51 on the door and 52 was the little girl and her father. She was so proud of her bear and thanked me. Then I 53 her mother and the other children were there in the hall too. The mother and father both thanked me.
Now when we meet in the hall we all speak, and in a 54 manner, I might add. 55 time passes, I don’t hear that shouting as often. In fact, hardly at all.

36 , and it is better to call a spade a spade. But dustmen can be as 37 as people of any other occupation, though we must 38 that their job is not a 39 one in the world.

Perhaps now the English people appreciate the work of 54 dustmen rather more 55 and won't take them for granted any more.
