A wonderful memory
I will never forget a wonderful memory that a stranger ever impressed me in Orlando, Florida.
Three years ago, I had a serious disease and had to stay in a _______ for some time. Luckily, after being carefully treated, I got much better. The doctors suggested that a holiday would be good for my _______. Just then I received an invitation asking me to attend a _______ in Orlando, where the famous Disneyland was located. My family encouraged me to attend it. So I started for Orlando.
On arriving Sunshine State, I took a taxi to the _______ where the meeting was held and checked in. The next morning, I took another taxi to do some shopping. The cost of taking taxis was so _______ that I regretted I hadn’t borrowed a car at first. Later, I went to a café to have _______. However, it was so busy that I couldn’t find an empty seat. Just as I was wondering whether to leave, a friendly voice came from behind, “You can share my _______”. I turned around and found an old lady smiling to me.
With many thanks, I sat down and we had a happy lunch together. Near the end of the meal the _______ asked me why I came here and how long I would stay. I couldn’t help _______ that I wouldn’t stay long because I couldn’t afford to travel by taxi.
“You ________ take a taxi any more.” she said kindly, “You see, I just happened to retire (退休) from my work. Now I’m ________ all day. I’d be pleased to drive you anywhere you want to go.”
Feeling much surprised and doubted, I said, “Thanks, madam, but that would be much ________ to you.” But she insisted and I accepted her kindness at last.
The next morning, the kind lady ________ at the hotel and then took me to the Disneyland before she left. At the end of the day, she returned to take me back to the hotel again. Before I got off, I offered her some money but she just politely ________.
Thanks to her ________, I had a wonderful holiday in Florida. And that sweet memory will be kept in my mind for long!
