【解析】本文主要讲了作者帮助一位老年痴呆症的老人的故事，作者感觉帮助别人很快乐。

【1】考查冠词。泛指一位老妇人，用不定冠词，且old的首字母发音是元音，所以填an。

【2】考查形容词。系动词seem之后，用形容词作表语，所以填confused。

【3】考查形容词。根据and told her that she couldn’t buy the items　because she didn’t have enough money.可知这个收银员非常不耐心，所以填impatient。

【4】考查固定短语。Pay for是固定短语，意思是为……而付钱，所以填for。

【5】考查时态。表示发生在过去的事情，所以用一般过去时，填stood /was standing。

【6】考查宾语从句。这里含有一个宾语从句，引导词在从句中作地点状语，所以填where。

【7】考查代词。指代身份或性别不明的人，用代词it。

【8】考查名词。句意：然后这个女儿注意到她的母亲带出三大包杂货。根据three bags，可知用名词复数，所以填groceries。

【9】考查连词。句意：但是我拒绝了。表示转折，所以填but。

【10】考查非谓语动词。这里含有一个宾语从句，作从句的主语，用动名词形式，所以填making。
