My Grandpa Will Pay the Bill
Charlie had to return to his hometown．He 1 all his money in dancing and traveling．He got into trouble and had little money to pay for his 2 ．He wrote a letter to his parents，but they didn’t answer．He 3 some money from his friends and bought a ticket for the train．
Now the young man knows his father is ill 4 and his mother has to look after him there．They didn’t 5 him at all．Their small shop was，of course，closed．
“We’ve paid a lot of money for the 6 ，”said Charlie’s father．“I can’t give you any money now．Open our shop tomorrow and it’ll be 7 to you，I think．”
The young man thought it reasonable(有道理的)and agreed．He 8 four pairs of shoes and got some money on the first day．The next morning，a very 9 girl came in the shop．He watched her carefully while she was 10 a pair of shoes．And then she asked，“How much are they?”
“A kiss a pair，” 11 the smirking(嬉皮笑脸的)young man．“That’s fair(公平的)，”said the girl．“I’ll 12 two pairs．”
Charlie brought two pairs of shoes and handed them to her．And then he 13 the counter(柜台)and came up to the girl．She wasn’t 14 at all．Pointing to an old man who was standing outside，she said．“Wait a minute．My grandpa will pay the 15 ！”
