We often __28__ in the hallway. I always greeted them, but the only __29__ I ever got was a “hello” from the eightyearold girl. I usually __30__ to see my doctor and one day when I returned they were just __31__ their apartment and the little girl was __32__ the outside door open for the others. I __33__ in the car doing __34__ things because I wasn't eager to be snubbed(冷落) again. Finally, I got out of my car and walked towards the door.

I forgot to tell her how __37__ I was for her kindness. I wrote a note saying how much her act of kindness had __38__ an old man's heart.
The next day there was a __39__ on my door and it was the little girl and her father. She was quite __40__ of her behavior and thanked me. Then I noticed her mother standing there too. Her parents __41__ me.
From then on when we met in the hallway we always greeted each other,in a friendly __42__.
Last night there was a heavy snow. I looked out at my car and __43__ how I was going to keep my doctor's __44__ because I could only walk for a short time. This morning when I opened the front door, all the snow was removed.
