We spent a day in the country and 【C1】______ a lot of flowers. Our car was full of flowers

inside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the 【C2】______

It stood outside a 【C3】______ shop. "Buy it," she said at once. "We'll 【C4】______ it home on the roof-rack. I've always wanted one like that. "

What could I do？ Ten minutes 【C5】______ I was twenty dollars poorer, and the book shelf was tied on to the roof rack. It was tall and narrow and quite heavy too.

As it was getting 【C6】______ , I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even 【C7】______ traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good 【C8】______ .

After a time my wife said, "There is a long line of cars 【C9】______ . Why don't they overtake？"

Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two officers looked at us seriously when they went 【C10】______ . But then 【C11】______ a kind smile they asked us to 【C12】______ their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the 【C13】______ came to me.

"Right, sir," he said. "Don't you need any more 【C14】______ now？"

I didn't quite 【C15】______ . "Thanks, officer," I said. "You've been very 【C16】______ . I live just down the road. "

He was looking at our 【C17】______ : first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. "Well, well," he said and laughed. "It's a bookshelf you've got here! We 【C18】______ it was-er, something else. "

My wife began to laugh. Suddenly I understood 【C19】______ the police drove here. I 【C20】______ at the officer, "Yes, it's a bookshelf, but thanks again. " I drove home as fast as I could.
