Mr. Perkin stood at the bus stop and 【小题1】 the cars go by. Many of the cars were new Beta 400 s, and most of most were yellow. Mr. Perkin always wore the 【小题2】 clothes as other men, ate the same food as other people, and did the same things after work, and at the end of the week, Mr. Perkin did not like to be【小题3】 .

The【小题4】 week, Mr. Perkin bought a new, bright yellow Beta 400s. He was 【小题5】 with it, and drove to work in it the next day. He was even more satisfied with his new car, when he saw all the other Beta 400 s, in front, behind, and on【小题6】 sides of him.

Mr. Perkin parked his car in a big car-park near his office, and walked the rest of the way. But when he came 【小题7】 at five o'clock, there were so many bright yellow Beta 400 s in the car-park【小题8】 he did not know which car was his. He 【小题9】 his key in some of the cars, but the people passing by gave him a look. He didn't like that, so he stopped.
