完形填空。
One day I pulled up to my apartment building and noticed there was a father and daughter
__1__ some things from a moving truck. Normally I'm shy away from contact with __2__.
That particular day, though, something was in me; I can't explain __3__, but I felt like I should
just help these people, even __4__ something as seemingly unimportant as unloading a truck.
So I __5__ and introduced myself, welcomed them to the town, and asked them to give me
a(n) __6__ to put some proper shoes on. After I had flipflops(夹趾拖鞋)on, I went over and
helped them move all of their __7__ into the apartment.
After we finished, we talked some and I got to know my new __8__. It might seem unimportant,
but it seems like people are less __9__ and friendly to their neighbors these days; I wanted to
__10__ that, at least in my small __11__ block. So we did talk,and they're from Florida, just
like me.
At that __12__ time in my life, I was going through a really difficult __13__ with my girlfriend
of 7 years. I didn't feel like helping anyone or doing anything __14__, but I figured why not?And
I'm glad I did. Also, as __15__ would have it, their daughter is my age(college student)and we
each had a mutual(相互的)__16__in one another. This developed into a friendship, and in the
coming months, probably more.
The __17__ was the act itself, though. I got to know my new neighbors and made some new
friends in the __18__. And I felt really good about it. Since then, I've tried __19__ my comfort
zone to perform other unplanned acts of __20__. So far, so good.I'd encourage everyone else
to do the same!
