Question

53题填fact还是excuse？为什么？

It was a cold winter's night when I stopped for gas(汽油) on my way home from work. I was tired and had a little 41
I worked in a 42 doctor's office, and during those days many unexpected things
happened. It seemed that I was going to be late getting home today. My husband who is a
punctual(守时的~) person would be ready to 43 .again. Maybe 44 I hurried, I could still arrive home earlier.
I was going inside to 45 for my gas when I noticed an older couple at the counter(柜台). I heard them asking for 46 to the local hospital. It was the same hospital that I had just 47 a few minutes ago.
At the counter, a young man was quite 48 . He was trying to 49 how to get there,
with two other people. One of them was 50 .trying to give them a whole different route back. It was then that I walked over to the couple and said, "Would you like to follow me to the 51 ?"
A look of 52 appeared on the woman's face.
"I'm going right by there," I said, and it was a(n) 53 since I had just decided to do
exactly that.
