¡¡¡¡We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was full of 1 inside. On the way home my wife saw a bookshelf outside a fur-niture £¨¼Ò¾ß£© shop. “Buy it£¬” she said at once. “We’ll 2 it home on the roof-rack £¨³µ¶¥¼Ü£©¡£ I’ve always wanted one like that.”

¡¡¡¡Ten minutes __3__ we were back with the bookshelf. 1 drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The 4 even stopped traffic to let us through.

¡¡¡¡After a rime my wife said£¬ “There’s a long line of cars 5 . Why don’t they overtake £¨³¬³µ£©£¿”

¡¡¡¡Just at that time a police car did overtake£¬ and two officers inside asked us to 6 their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church£¨½ÌÌã©¡£

¡¡¡¡One of the officers came to me and said£¬ “Do you need any more 7 now£¿” I didn’t quite un-derstand. So I said£¬ “You’ve been very 8 . We live just down the road.”

¡¡¡¡He was looking at our things£¬ first at the flow-ers£¬ then at the bookshelf. “Well£¬ well£¬” he said and 9 £¬ “It’s a bookshelf you’ve got here£¡ We thought it was— er£¬ something else.”
