問題詳情：

I was traveling in a small place in New York. That place had no taxi for a short   1   (distant). One had to take a rickshaw(人力車)．

I called out for an old man in the waiting line. Before I got on the rickshaw, I   2   (automatic) asked how much he would charge to take me across to the Mall. I   3  (tell) “10 dollars”. Then I started bargaining. He just gave a hard smile and said, “Whatever you feel like, please give me. It is not necessary   4  (bargain) on this small amount.”

I was a bit ashamed at myself and kept quiet while he continued, “  5   (like) those taxis, my vehicle does not run on petrol or diesel (柴油) or even gas:   6   runs on my sweat. So please give it to me   7   a smile, for the money has to feed so many   8   (hunger) mouths at home.”

When we reached the Mall, I gave him the money and the smile   9   requested and added a gentle pat on his back. He smiled back as if to give me a receipt and I would preserve his smile for   10   long time.
