It said that ____2____ you wanted to drop her a line, here was her address. So I did. I found a birthday card and dropped her a short note, wishing ____3____ a happy birthday.
A week or so later, someone knocked at my front door. When I opened the door, I saw a middle-aged man ____4____ on my doorstep. He introduced himself as the son of the woman ____5____ I had sent the card to. He explained that he just wanted to drop by in person and thank me ____6____ sending such a nice card to his mom. Apparently(明显地), like many ____7____ old men or women, she did not receive much mail and was quite ____8____ to receive mine. I just didn’t know ____9____ to say. I told him it was my pleasure and that I hoped his mom had enjoyed birthday.
