On Wednesday afternoon Annie took the bus into town to shop in the market. For an hour or so she would walk up and down between the stalls looking at everything, buying here and there, and  1  a sharp lookout for the bargains that were something to be haD. And then, with all the   2  she needs bought she would leave the market for the   3  of the town to spend another hour   4  she liked best, looking in furniture-shop windows. One Wednesday she found a  5  shop full of the most delightful things, with a   6  inviting anyone to walk in and look round without   7  they had to buy something. Annie hesitated a moment   8  stepping through the doorway where, almost at once, she stopped   9  before a green armchair.

A voice at her shoulder made her   12  .“Can I help you, Madam?” She looked   13  at the assistant who had come softly to her  14 “Oh, well, no,” she said, “I was just   15  .” “We have chairs of all kinds in the   16  . If you'll just come up, you will find something to  17  you.” Annie, worried at the thought of being   18  to buy something she didn't   19  , left the shop   20  . 1.
