小题2:   my house was merely two blocks away, it was not a pleasant walk with one small boy asleep in the pram (手推婴儿车), the other one in a raincoat and no umbrella for myself. A pick-up truck passed us on the road. I tried to thumb a ride but failed. My little boy woke up with a start and began to cry. I 小题3:     (convince) that things might become worse and nobody would bother to help on such a terrible day.

A young man put the window down. “Hey, here’s an umbrella for you, please take    小题6:   .” He called out.
I stood there    小题7:  (astonish), barely believing that the man    小题8:    existence was unknown to me only moments ago, could be so   小题9:    (consider). “Come on, give this to your mummy,” he said to my older son. I accepted the offer and expressed my gratitude to him.
