I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout（付款台） earlier today．All of the checkouts were    46  , and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a（n）   47  ! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts      48   ; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she    49   scan her own shopping．
I listened to her    50  looking around as I loaded（装） my stuff onto the conveyor belt （传送带）．I didn’t want    51   to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go     52    of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!
But then I    53  back．Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl,    54   her granddaughter．The girl’s part of the shopping    55   some ic books．
I couldn’t    56  it．I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt,     57   a space．“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and    58   them to a big    59   ．The woman was delighted, and even   60   to plain ---- until she was walking away．
So,  61  bother（麻烦，费事） having helped? It was because that little girl was probably taking in her granny’s plaint like a sponge（海绵）．She was learning how to    62   situations like that by listening to her granny．I’d seen that I could interrupt that plaining, and put a smile and some   63   into the middle of it．We can all plain; we can all react    64   , but it doesn’t have to be like that．And, even if only for a few     65    , I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way．
