A 31 　thing happened 32 me last Sunday. It was such a beautiful day 33 I drove to go for a look in the country.

　 On the way back home, my 34 stopped. It was out of gas on a 35 road far from a town! I decided to walk until I found someone 36 could sell some gas. I had walked almost a mile 37 I finally found a house near the 38 I was glad to see it because it was getting dark.

　 I knocked at the door and a little old lady with long white hair 39 . She said, “I’ve been 40 for you here for a long time. Come in. 41 is almost ready.”

　 “But I only came for some gas,” I answered. I couldn’t 42 what she was talking about.

　 “Oh, Alfred! Gas? You 43 tea,” said she.

I quickly 　44 that my car was out of 　45 , but she didn’t seem to listen to me. She just kept 46 me Alfred and talking about how long it had been 47 she had seen me. She was acting very strangely and I was anxious to leave. As soon as she went to get tea, I went out of the house as fast as I 48 .

　 Fortunately, there was another house down the road and I was able to buy the gas I needed. When I told the man about my 　49 , he said, “Oh, that’s Miss Emily. She lives by herself in that big house. She’s strange, but she wouldn’t 50 anybody. She is still waiting for the man she was going to marry thirty years ago. The day before their wedding he left home and never came back because of the war.”
