Yesterday my parents were leaving for a little holiday and I took them to the train station. Upon arrival, the r 1 was pouring down.
As I was walking back to the parking lot, I saw an elderly man walking s 2 to the bus station. Clearly he had no umbrella. I walked over and asked him where he was g 3 . It turned out that he was heading to the same town as I was, just a 15-minute drive. I offered him a lift.
We h 4 a lovely talk on the way and I learned some of his history. He was 87 and heading to the old people's house which he had just put his beloved wife in last week. A tear f 5 down his face as he told me about his wife. I tried to hold back my own tears b 6 failed. As I dropped him off at the gate of the old people's house, I gave h 7 the flowers I had in my car.
I would much rather see them enjoyed by him and his wife than just take them back h 8 . As I made my way back to my car, I totally lost c 9 of my feelings and cried like a baby.
I felt that all the stars looked much b 10 for some reason and that I was meant to meet him today. I was very glad to be able to help him in some way.

“我”在回家的路上让一位老人搭便车。老人聊起他住在养老院的妻子时，眼里泛起泪花。到养老院时，“我”把车里的一束花送给老人。
1. rain 到达车站时，雨倾盆而下。受定冠词修饰，填入名词 rain。
2. slowly 描述老人走路的状态，且由首字母s可知，填slowly。
3. going “我”走过去问他要去哪里。
4. had “我们”在路上聊得很愉快。叙述发生在过去的事件，用一般过去时，故填 had。
5. fell 当他告诉“我”有关他妻子的事时，一滴眼泪从他脸上滑落。叙述发生在过去的事件，用一般过去时。
6. but “我试图抑制住自己的眼泪”与“失败了”为转折关系，用 but 连接两个部分。
7. him 由“As I dropped him off at the gate of the old people's house ...”可知，对应填入 him，用作 gave 的宾语。
8. home 比起把它们带回家，“我”更愿意看到他们欣赏这些花。
9. control “我”完全控制不住自己的情绪。
10. brighter “我”觉得由于某种原因，所有的星星看起来都更亮了。much 是使用比较级的标志词，故填 brighter。
