　　The angry woman stood on the station platform (站台). “The railway should 1 me 12 pounds,” she said to Harry Jenks, the man in the booking office(订票处). “My 2 was for May 22nd, and that night there was no 3 from Jersey (British island in the English Channel 英吉利海峡). My daughter and I had to 4 in a hotel. It cost me 12 pounds.”

　　Harry was 5 . He remembered selling the woman a 6 ticket. “Please come into the office, madam,” he said 7 . “I'll just check(检查) the Jersey 8 for May 22nd.”

　　The woman and her little girl 9 him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon found out. There was no ship 10 on May 22nd. How had he made such a 11 mistake? As he didn't know what to do, he 12 at the child. “You look sunburnt,” he said to her. “Did you have a 13 holiday in Jersey?”

　　“Yes,” she answered gladly, “the beach(海滩) was 14 . And I can swim too!”

　　“That's fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can't swim a bit yet. Of course, she's only three.”

　　“I'm four,” the child said 15 . “I'll soon be four and a half.”

　　Harry turned to the mother. “I 16 your ticket, madam,” he said. “But you didn't get one for your daughter, did you?”

　　“Er, well…” The woman looked at the child. “I 17 she hasn't started school yet. She's only four.”

　　“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, madam. A child's return ticket to Jersey costs… let me see… 13. 50 pounds. So if you want the railway to pay 12 pounds for your 18 , you will have to pay the railway 13. 50 pounds 19 ．The law (制度) is the law, but the fault(过错) was mine.”

　　The woman stood up, took the child's hand and 20 the office.
