Though she stopped, it was 5 she could not understand a word of English.

This person asked us in poor English 8 we wanted to go and then spoke in rapid-fire Japanese to the girl.
She was 9 her head and saying "Hai! Hai!". He moved on after telling us we were in the wrong station. The girl, 10 stayed back, she also 11 us all the way to the right station,just a few minutes 12 , but completely out of her way. Thanking her for her 13 , we rushed off to buy 14 .
I have never seen 15 who goes out of their way to help a lost person in Delhi, usually just 16 to give directions and moving on.

Service adviser Olivia was busy 42 paper work and customers as we explained our problems. 43 there were already “ten cars behind”, he told us to 44 the car into the garage.

About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd-scene. Although our "act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.
We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in "snow". Two more fans were turned on, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.
The next scene was a complete contrast (对比).The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen. An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water's edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!
Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film “Stars”!
1.Who is the author?
A.A cameraman. B.A film director.
C.A workman for scene setting D.A crowd-scene actor
2. What made the author feel cold?
A.The heavy snowfall. B.The film being shown.
C.The low temperature. D.The man-made scene.
3.What would happen in the "three minutes" mentioned, in the last paragraph?
A.A new scene would be filmed.
B.More stars would act in the film.
C.The author would leave the studio.
D.The next scene would be prepared.
