At the end of the meal，she presented the bill，and then went to（38）A the growing crowd of other dinners．My husband paid with a credit card，added her（39）C，and we were off．
"Mr Goldsmith!"our waitress ran out of the dinning room waving a receipt at him，"Thank you．"

"What did you give her？"I asked in a whisper，（41）A if he had done something unreasonable or made a calculation error．
"Wow，Dad，"our son said，sounding like a 10-year-old．"I've never seen a waitress （42）D
anyone out of the restaurant to say‘thank you'for the tip．"
