完形填空
I was in Houston a few weeks ago, and needed to be back home in Austin by the early morning the next day. So I ______ to leave that morning. ______ my tire blew out on the way. I ______ a small parking lot. Then I ______ the doors and picked up my phone to call a tow truck (拖车). Soon a man ______ on my driver’s side window and asked if he could help me. From his ______ and behavior, I knew he was far more ______ to rob (抢劫) than help me, so I ______refused and told him the tow truck was due any minute. He asked again, but again I gently shook my head. He finally said, “ Ma’am, you need ______. A tow truck in Houston will arrive anywhere between 45 minutes and approximately ______(which I knew was true), and you are not going anywhere until you have that tire______.”
I looked hard, straight into his _____, and instinctively (凭直觉) saw someone different from the ______ person he appeared to be at first glance. So, against all reasonable ______, but trusting my instincts, I got out. He looked______, but got right to work, trying to find the ______ tire. It took a while since it was stored under the van (车厢).
He changed the tire, ______ the seat to its place and said, “Thank you for letting me help you. You gave me a ______ when most people would never open the door to someone like me. Would it be okay if I gave you a hug?” When I______, I gave him a giant hug. I left with a new tire and a renewed ______ in human nature.
