問題詳情:
A few years ago I was working part time at a local ice cream shop. While 41 an elderly woman a hot fudge sundae (聖代*淇淋) at the drive-through window, I couldn’t help 42 her car, because I was just inches from her face. I 43 that she had a basket of what appeared to be purple tomatoes.
As I gave her the sundae, I said, “Those tomatoes look delicious! What 44 are they?” She smiled so 45 that I thought she was about to laugh, but instead she replied. “Here, have some!” Within seconds I had a 46 of purple tomatoes.
“Oh, no, you 47 give me any!” I said. Those tomatoes looked expensive. “Here, have more,” she 48 , and I had six of the prettiest tomatoes I had 49 seen. I weakly tried to say, “Really, you didn’t have to give me any, 50 I appreciate it.
The woman smiled again and 51 , “They belong to a rare type. So they aren’t like the one, you get in the grocery store. I hope you enjoy them.” I said “Thank you” again, and she 52 off.
About two weeks later, my 53 at the ice cream store sent me a message: “I want to let you know that your gardener dropped off a box of 54 for you. Please come and get them.” 55 , I texted, “My gardener?” That night my boss showed me the 56 . I opened it and inside were tomatoes, cucumbers, and green beans. I was 57 , feeling greatly surprised. Why was this woman being so 58 ?
