Terry will never forget that day in 1968. Four-year-old Terry Hill and her younger brother Mikey were left alone in the car as their father went into a ___1___. Terry was in the back seat while Mikey was in the front seat. Mikey wasn’t wearing a seat belt. ___2___ moved over to the driver’s seat. As they waited for their father Mikey was playing with the steering wheel (方向盘). Somehow, he hit the gear shift (换挡器). Because their car ___3___ on a small hill, it started moving back slowly. There were cars coming and going all around at that moment.

Terry tried to open the door. However, it was too ___4___ for a 4-year-old girl. She didn’t know ___5___ to do. Just then, Terry saw her dad ___6___ out of the shop. But running right in front of him was someone else: a young man. He reached the car first, ___7___ the brake (刹车) on and saved Terry and her brother just in time.

For over 50 years, Terry has always remembered how the stranger ___8___ helped them out without thinking twice. “This young guy, he runs to the car, gets the door open, moves my brother over and puts the brake on. Everything ___9___ so fast.” Terry said, “He ___10___ saw what needed to be done and acted immediately. That has made a huge influence on me for my whole life.”
