It was a big room with six tall windows and the ugliest wallpaper I had ever seen! __, I had been told the hotel was not beautiful but that you were better ____ there than in any other hotel; and that was ___ I wanted just then.
The waiter came hurrying up. Before I came downstairs I had prepared     carefully for what I must   . I had looked three times in my dictionary to make sure ____the English for “breakfast”. I had tried to get the right      and I had stood in the front of a mirror and twisted my mouth until it ached.
The waiter asked me       I could not understand, but I spoke only my one prepared word “breakfast”. He looked at me in a      way. So I repeated it. Still he did not understand. It was     that English people didn’t understand their language. The waiter       his head and went away, but he came back in a minute and brought a tray with tea, bread and butter--- enough to feed a small army--- and went away. But I was hungry, and I left   . When the waiter came back I thought his face showed a little    , but you can never    what a waiter’s face really shows. In another minute he brought___ tray with some bacon and some eggs. He__ have misunderstood me, but I thought it was no use explaining to people who don’t understand their own language , so I just set to work on the bacon and eggs, wondering whether I could possibly clear that plate.
Well, I finished the bacon and eggs. I got up and made my way back slowly - at least five pounds    . I never believed until then that any meal could     me, but on that day I met my Waterloo(滑铁卢).

So tired as I was, I bothered myself to open up my cafe shop on the cold morning. With many consumers streaming in, I knew another long business day began. And I had to serve far into the night.
As I rushed among the tables, suddenly, a       asked if I could mind a child. I was quite        but I could tell the man was quite desperate(绝望的). So I had to make a       with him that if he wanted his son to stay and wait for him, he had to        something in the shop.
This was quite       for the man to do; I could       he was quite poor by the       he was dressed. It looked as if he had tried to come in his       clothes. But they still looked a bit old and worn out      he had often worn them, just to make himself look best. Looking down I could see his       were also a bit shabby(破旧的)and the heels(鞋后跟)were in a terrible state. I thought he was going for a job interview. In the end he bought a small box of       for his little son and seated him down in the corner. I could tell the boy was feeling down and only could       with a bit of cheering up.
Seeing that the kid sat there for quite a while, I was a bit       as the poor little kid was sitting      his own. People watched him and some kids even came over to pick on him. I was       to see one of them even knocked his cookies off the table. He quickly went and got them back without saying a word. I was hoping his father would       up and come back for his son's      .
At closing time, the only person left was the little boy. After a while, the father finally came in with a tiresome look. I       he didn't get any job. As they were leaving, I offered the kid a little cake, but the man rejected(拒绝)it. I       he felt as if I had just abused(虐待)him. Of course I didn't mean to. But I could understand why he felt like that. I only wished them good       whatever happened.  
The man opened the door to leave — father and son hand in hand.
