问题     In this small town there was not a single man of importance who would dare to have a house. keeper younger than sixty, for fear of what people might say  【B1】  . However, when I needed a housekeeper I chose a girl called Cathey, a lovely little girl of seventeen from a village  【B2】  the coast. But I made my choice  【B3】  . After a few days’ consideration over the matter and an early telephone call to her, I  【B4】  out there one day in my Fiat when she was at home, and I had a look at the cottage and a talk with her mother over a  【B5】  of teas, and after that I did not need anyone to say that she was  【B6】  . I knew if there was anything Cathey did not do  【B7】  , her mother would not  【B8】  long to correct her. After that there was only one question to raise.
    "Have you a  【B9】  , Cathey?" said I.
    "No, doctor, I have not, "said she with a simple expression that did not  【B10】  me a bit. As a doctor, you soon  【B11】  innocent(无邪的)looks.
    "Well, you’d better  【B12】  and get one. "I said,"  【B13】  I’m not going to take you. "At this she laughed After what seemed only a short time, she came and started working at my house. And you guess  【B14】  ? She proved to be very  【B15】  and efficient(高效率的). Of course she was so  【B16】  that people who came to my house used to  【B17】  a remark about us. But that didn’t hurt me at all. They did not dare to  【B18】  a pretty girl themselves in case that other people would say something. But I knew as long as a girl had a man of  【B19】  to look after she would give me  【B20】  . And, of course, I would be happy and at ease.
