My name is Betty Sanders.I’m a telephone operator, and I work for Universal Telephone Company.My job at UTC is an interesting one.I work five days a week, and my hours are from 9 o’clock to 5 o’clock.I do a lot of things––I place long distance(長(zhǎng)途)calls for people, I answer questions, and I help people when they are in trouble.

  Today, for example, I had an interesting experience(經(jīng)歷).At eleven o’clock this morning, I got a call from a man.I don’t know who he was.He was in trouble and I could tell that he was worried about something.He gave me his address and asked me to send an ambulance(救護(hù)車)right away.I asked him if somebody was hurt, but he didn’t answer my question.He told me he needed a doctor at once, so I said I’d call an ambulance for him.I still wanted to know what was wrong.Then he said,“Our keys are gone!”I didn’t understand that!Why would he need an ambulance just because he couldn’t find his keys?Then I found out what the trouble was.The man and his wife left the car keys on a coffee table, and later they couldn’t find them.Their little boy John was playing in the room, and they thought he swallowed(吞下)them.But before I could help him, he told me he wouldn’t need an ambulance any longer.His wife found the keys in her bag.They were there all the time.

(3)

從文章后半部分可以得知他鑰匙不見了,并懷疑是孩子吞下去了。

(4)

答案在最后一段倒數(shù)第二句His wife found the keys in her bag.

  Each day I took the same route to work and passed by a security guard (保安). 35 greeted everyone walking by and made small talk with many of the passers-by and wishing them well. His simple “hello” made people feel  36 . His cheerful smile became a part of my day. When he was absent, many people noticed it, and I felt a little bit empty.

  The first few times, I didn’t say hello back to him when he greeted me. I was  37 in my own world. On Monday the security guard asked me:“How was your weekend?” I told him about my visit to California, to see my mother, who had colon cancer. I  38 how I visited her each month. “The time with my mother is so precious(珍貴的),  39 I know that each time may be the last.”

  He listened like a close friend I’d known for years. He felt my  40 and my love. He shared how he had lost his father to cancer two years before. He said, “I understand what you are going through. My father passed away while I was serving in Germany. Because of some reasons I was unable to fly back in time. I was unable to say goodbye to him. I wish I could have been with him, given him a hug, and told him I loved him. You are really lucky to have the gift of  41 .”

  In the business of life, we often forget to wish a stranger hello although how easy it is, and how great and lasting a  45 it can make. When you say hello to a stranger you become like a pebble(鵝卵石) thrown into a pond. With each ripple (波紋)you create, you spread love that continues to  46 . Make a point of saying hello to a stranger today. You will give the gift that keeps on giving.
