第二节完形填空（共20小题，20分）

The sun was shining when I got on No. 151 bus. We passengers sat jammed in heavy clothes. No one 36 . That’s one of the unwritten rules 37 we see the same faces every day we prefer to 38 behind our newspapers. People who sit so close together are using them to keep 39 distance.

As the bus came near the Mile a 40 suddenly rang out “Attention! This is your 41 speaking.” We looked at the back of the driver’s head. “Put your 42 down all of you.” The papers came down. “Now turn and 43 the person next to you.”

Surprisingly we all did it. Still no one smiled. I faced an old woman. I saw her 44 every day. We waited for the next 45 from the driver. “Now repeat after me. Good morning neighbor!”

But our voices were a little 46 . For many of us this was the 47 word we had spoken that day. When we said them together like 48 to people beside us we couldn’t help 49 . There was the feeling of relief. Moreover there was the sense of ice being 50 . To say the three words was not so 51 after all.

The bus driver said nothing more. He didn’t 52 to. Not a single newspaper went back up. I heard laughter a 53 sound I had never heard before in this bus.

When I 54 my stop I said goodbye to my seatmate and then 55 the bus. That day I was starting happily.
