The window sticks with constant ice; the roar of engines hurts your 41 ; your words are lost in the howling wind.On a 42 afternoon, everything changed.Every once in a while, the sub-zero temperatures seal a 43 windows shut. Drivers dont exactly enjoy having to stand outside in the cold, 44 their orders into a speaker box, when they expect to drive through on their heated leather seats. In such cases, most customers tend to show their annoyance to the employees.This woman was 45 .“Ill get the next cars 46 as well,” she said as she came up to the window to pay. She stood outside, 47 much snow on her hair.

He 55 over the cash and received his pre-paid hot drink.The trend continued. Customers arrived annoyed, only to leave 56 and pleased. Some were shocked to spend much more than they had expected, 57 others ended up receiving their order for less than half the price.Five vehicles passed, then ten, then twenty. No one refused to pay. Customers stood at my window 58 a fist-full of change to buy drinks for a plete stranger. Cars drove off, honking (鸣笛) and 59 their thanks.It only takes one customer, one person, to change the entire 60 of traffic. It only takes one moment, one smile, to warm up even the coldest of days.41. A. earsB. handsC. feetD. back42. A. freezingB. sunnyC. warm D. usual43. A. trucksB. vehiclesC. carsD. lorrys44.
