It’s a small gas station that has snacks,drinks,cigarettes,and candies.The young man behind the counter(柜台) knows his 16 by name and what they normally want to buy.He treats children and adults with equal 17 .He reads science fiction behind the counter when business is 18 . One day , three people rushed in and grabbed food off the shelves as fast as they could , 19 not intending to pay for it . He hit the “panic button”, then went over the counter and 20 the front door . It was obvious that they were homeless, and equally obvious that they were’t going 21 with their ill-gotten gains (不义之财).They 22 the food and simply crowded together in panic-knowing the police were 23 the way. Imagine what they must have felt like when they were told they didn’t have to steal if they were that 24 . “We have food in the back expired(到期) but still 25 to eat . If you need food , you 26 have some .” They were told to 27 what they had dropped and put it back , and then asked to straighten out the mess. They were doing just that 28 the police arrived. The officers were told the situation was under control and the police were no longer 29 . This wasn’t what they had 30 . They were being treated as human beings who could right the wrong they’d done. Shocked , they quickly followed orders to take turns and use the restroom to clean up. Soon three 31 people walked out with all the 32 their arms could hold. They were 33 that , if they needed to come back aga in , they were to ask and not just grab. And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in . He would be the 34 person in the world to claim he was a hero . But he gave three people something they were in desperate need of –a 35 amount of self-respect and a little bit of hope. 小题1:A  frends B  neighbors    C  customers    D  passengers 小题2:A  respect     B  pride        C  wisdom   D  right 小题3: A  slow   B  busy         C  heavy        D  swift 小题4:A  bravely     B  reasonably   C  hardly       D  obviously 小题5:A  opened B  locked       C  closed       D  broke 小题6:A  nowhere     B  somewhere    C  anywhere     D  everywhere 小题7:A  hid         B  lifted       C  swallowed    D  dropped 小题8: A  in         B  on           C  off          D  by 小题9:A  anxious     B  cautious     C  courageous   D  hungry 小题10: A  safe       B  easy         C  sweet        D  unique 小题11:A  must    B  can          C  should       D  need 小题12:A  hold up B  hand out     C  pick up      D  hand in 小题13:A  when    B  after            C  before       D  since 小题14:A  popular     B  necessary    C  reliable         D  admired 小题15:A  wanted  B  desired      C  expected     D  admired 小题16: A  dirtier    B  cleaner      C  cleverer     D  quicker 小题17: A  money B  cigarettes   C  drinks       D  food 小题18:A  reminded B  warned      C  ordered      D  persuaded 小题19:A  first       B  last         C  best         D  worst 小题20:A  large   B  fair         C  small        D  full
