　　Grandma called me in from the yard. “Would you please go to the store for me? I’m ready to makecakes, and there isn’t enough yeast (酵母). Take a quarter from my little change 16 .” I found Grandma’s wallet and put the quarter in my pocket.

　　I was soon in the little general store that 17 our farming community. “Mr. Jenkins,” I said, “Grandma needs some yeast.” Mr. Jenkins set three cakes of yeast on the counter. His eyes shone, and he 18 at me. “And what else do you need?” I knew what he meant. I was always allowed to pick a penny candy when I came to the store with Grandma. “How much 19 do I have from a quarter?” I asked. “Seven cents.” Mr. Jenkins replied. I thought 20 that

　　quickly. I would have a nickel and two pennies back.I was sure Grandma wouldn’t 21 if I spent one penny. and if she were here, she might even say I could have them both. The 22 I looked at the candy display, the more certain I became that I needed two pennies’ worth as a reward for coming to the store alone. And I did so.

　　“Thank you,” Grandma said when I 23 the yeast on the table. “Did you put the change back in my wallet?” “Yes,

　　Grandma.” I replied, hurrying out to the yard. “I hadn’t really lied to Grandma,” I argued with myself. “I did 24 all the

　　change I had.”

　　But I had 25 two pennies without Grandma’s permission(允 許). The second piece of candy in my pocket didn’t

　　sound like a good idea any more. I knew I had lied to Grandma, and I was 26 about it. Grandma loved me so much that I couldn’t bear to keep anything from her.

　　27 Grandma took the hot cakes from the oven, I told her about the candy. She 28 when I finished my story. “I

　　know just 29 you feel,” she said. “We all feel like that when we’ve done 30 deceitful (欺 騙 的). I’m glad you told me about the pennies, and of course I’ll forgive you.” Grandma hugged me tight, and suddenly I felt as though a big stone was gone from my stomach.
