When Dave was eighteen, he bought a secondhand car for 200 dollars so that he could travel to and from work more__41__ than by Bus. It worked quite well for a few years, but then it got so old, and it was costing him _42_much in repairs that he decided that he had better _43_it.

He asked among his friends to see if anyone was particularly_ 44_ to buy a cheap car, but they all knew that it was falling to pieces, so_45_ of them had any desire（愿望） to buy it. Dave's friend Sam saw that he was _46_ when they met one evening, and said, “What's _47_, Dave?”

Dave told him, and Sam answered, “Well, what about advertising（登广告） it in the paper? You may _48_more for it that way than the cost of the advertisement!” Thinking that Sam's_49_was sensible(合理的),he put an advertisement in an evening paper, which read “For sale: small car, _50_ very little petrol, only two owners. Bargain at 50 dollars.”

For two days after the advertisement first appeared, there was no answer. But then  51  Saturday evening he had an enquiry(询问).A man rang up and said he would like to_52_ him about the car. “All right,” Dave said, feeling happy. He asked the man whether ten o'clock the next morning would be_53_or not. “Fine,” the man said, “and I'll _54_my wife. We intend to go for a ride in it to _55_ it.”

The next morning, at a quarter to ten, Dave parked the car in the square outside his front door, meaning to 56  there for the people who had_57_ his advertisement. Even Dave had to admit that the car really looked  58  a wreck(残骸), soon after he had got the car as clean_59_ it could be, a police car stopped just behind him and a policeman got out. He looked at Dave's car and then said, “Have you reported this _60_ to us yet, sir?”
