第二节 完型填空

At the end of my senior year of high school, I got a job working at a local coffee shop. I thought the job would be    36    and stress. I    37    myself pouring the best coffee, making delicious doughnuts (炸面包圈), and becoming friends with     38    customers.

I wasn’t    39    the people with enormous orders, the women who    40    that the coffee was much too creamy, or the men who wanted their iced coffee remade    41    until they reached perfection. I couldn’t seem to    42    anyone.

One rainy day, one of my regular customers came in looking    43   . He said he felt like getting in bed,    44    the sheets up over his head, and staying there for a few years. I knew exactly how he felt.

Before he left, I handed him a bag along with his iced coffee. He was    45   , since he hadn’t    46    anything but coffee. I had given him his favorite type of doughnut.

“It’s    47    me.” I told him. “have a nice day.”

He smiled and     48    me before heading back out into the rain.

The next day, it is still raining, I spent my afternoon    49    the window handing people their orders. I was completely wet and freezing cold.    50   , no one was tipping that day. Every time I looked into our empty tip jar, I grew more    51   .

In the evening, the customer from the day before drove up to the window. He handed me a pink rose and a note.

The note read:

Christine,

Thanks for being so sweet, kind and    52    yesterday. It is so nice to meet someone who’s genuinely nice. Please don’t    53    your way! Have a great day! –Hank

After that, whenever I felt depressed or    54    of coffee, I thought of Hank and his kindness. Then I would smile, hold my head up high, clear my throat and ask    55   , “How can I help you?”
