Question

While I was waiting in line at a coffee shop earlier, a woman drove alongside the queue in a mobility scooter (踏板车). There was only a     space between the line of people and the tables, which she       to drive along. She drove over my foot and didn't       saying nothing at all.

I got annoyed and expected she would have     , but then I just decided to         it and got down to selecting which pastry (点心) to go with my coffee. The lady and I ended up sitting at adjacent (邻近的) tables. She was on the end of a row so that she could park her     After about half an hour, when she had       her coffee, she got up and back onto her scooter. It     start. She tried to turn the key several times     she telephoned the place she purchased it from.

An engineer         within 5 minutes. The place must have been local. I couldn't       overhearing their conversation, and it turned out she had just       the scooter that morning. This was her very first outing in it. She felt really       about driving it       , she wasn't used to its speed, nor its       , and this combination made it quite       to drive it through narrow gaps.

Suddenly, I felt       for the lady. It really didn't     me at all that she'd driven over my foot. I had made an assumption,       , that a person doing that should apologize.
