Question

About one year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise form the children, but I often heard the parents      shouting at the kids, not in a nice tone, but in a (n)      one.

We often      in the hallway. I always greeted them,      the only answer I ever got was a “hello” from the eight-year-old girl. I usually      to see my doctor and one day when I returned they were just      their apartment and the little girl was      the outside door open for the others. I      in the car doing      things because I wasn’t eager to be snubbed (冷落) again. Finally I got out of my car and walked towards the door. The parents were telling her to      to get into the car, but the little girl was still holding the door,      me! I hurried although I was still in pain from my injury.

I forgot to tell her how      I was for her kindness. I wrote a note saying how much her act of kindness had      an old man’s heart.

The next day there was a (n)      on my door and it was the little girl and her father. She was quite      of her behavior and thanked me. Then I noticed her mother was there, too. Her parents      me, too.

Now when we meet in the hall way we always greet each other, in a friendly      .

Last night there was a heavy snow. I looked out at my car and      how I was going to keep my doctor’s      because I could only walk for a short time. This morning when I opened the front door, all the snow was removed.
