　 I am a sales representative 　 and travel all over England to visit my customers.One cold February morning I was due to visit a store at 9 am.I 36　 my car,bundled my scarf around me and 　37 up the street towards his shop front.

　　　　 The Street where his store was 38 was partially blocked by two　 large,ruddy faced workmen who were teaing up the concrete.I prepared myself for the 39 cat calls(起哄).I was up early,out in the cold,and probably to be seen as a funny scene by two men I didn't even 40　 .

　　　　 Then　 I stopped　 and 4l　 my　 own father.

I realized that if was cold then these　 two　 guys were　 probably 　 45 ，given that it looked as though they'd already been　　　　　 46　 for hours.

　　　　 My customer's　 shop wasn't open yet but I was beyond being annoyed at his 47 .I Went to　 a coffee sh、op　 around the　 comer, 　 48　 　　　　　myself a hot chocolate,then two　 more　 with whipped cream .I made my　 49　 　　　　 down the Street to wards the workmen.One of them turned to me with　 a wide smile and 　50 me　 with　 a joking　 "Oh　 lovey，you　 shouldn't have!"　 To his　　 51　 ，I passed him the　 tray with　 the　 two 　 52 　chocolates.I　 replied,"Maybe　 not. 　53 it's　 too　 cold　 to　 be　 working　 outside today。"

　　I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The announcement in the 1 said that you could buy tickets at the theatre box office in Richland Hills 2 day between 10: 00 and 4: 00． 3 I work from 9: 00 to 5: 00, the 4 time I could get to the theatre was driving there during my 45-minute lunch break. 5 the theatre is on the other side of the town, and the bus 6 between my office and Richland Hills is not very 7 ．But if you're lucky, you can make the round 8 in 45 minutes. Last Monday I stood at the bus stop for 40 minutes 9 for a bus. By the time I saw one come around the comer, there was not enough time 10 to make the trip. So I gave up and went back to the 11 . The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed. I got on a bus 12 and arrived at the theatre in 13 twenty minutes. When I got there, 14 , I found a long line of people at the office. I heard one man say he had been waiting 15 line for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line, I 16 the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by 17 ．It was expensive, but I felt it would be 18 it to hear the concert. The trip by taxi only 19 ten minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, I quickly discovered, was 20 they had already sold out all the tickets.
