Question

 Once my father and I went to see a circus (马戏团) .A family was standing in front of us 1        for tickets.

The family had eight children. Their clothes were not 2        but they were clean. They were talking about the clowns (小丑) and elephants excit?edly.

"I want 3        tickets,eight for children and two for adults (成人) ”，said the father to the ticket lady. The ticket lady told him the 4       . When he heard that,the man couldn't believe his 5       . He asked again, "How much?" The ticket lady spoke again. The father looked sad. Clearly,he didn't have 6        money.

My dad took a $ 20 bill and dropped it on the ground. Then he 7        the bill,and said to the man, "Sir,this fell out of your pocket." The man knew what was 8        on. He looked into my dad's eyes and took the 9       ，"Thank you,thank you,sir. This 10        means a lot to me and my family.” We didn't go to the circus that night,but we didn't feel sorry for it at all.
