He always made a list, but he always forgot to put one or more items on the list. This used to anger him, but now he just accepted it. Youre not as _as you used to be, he told himself.It was Fridayshopping day. He went to the 99 Cents store. Sometimes they had a lot of fresh produce, sometimes they didnt. He got lucky. There were fresh, packaged broccoli, celery, eggplant, and squash. Also, packages of peaches, plums and apples. He _had eough produce to last all week, if it didnt rot first. The produce alone filled up four plastic bags. Four other bags _other items that were on Neils list. He drove to Albertsons, which sold milk by the gallon and at cheaper prices than the 99 Cents store. Interestingly, the price of milk had soared in the last month. He used to buy 2 gallons of nonfat milk for $ 3.59. Now he was paying $ 4.69.Yet, the news media was silent-the same news media that reports a 2-cent increase in gasoline prices or even a 1-cent decrease. Thats all _the news.He parked his car in the carport and opened the trunk. Somehow he managed, as usual, to put all 10 plastic bags into his hands and lug them upstairs. “What a drag shipping is!” he thought. And then he mentally slapped himself：if you think its a drag now,wait till you cant drive. Wait till you cant even walk up the stairs_you use a cane. How are you going to get your groceries then? The older you get, he old himself, the more youd better appreciate the fact that you can still do these _chores and errands.1 . AgoodBsharpCusefulDwell2 . AeasilyBquicklyCfastDcarefully3 .

When it talks to you, it moves its head and body quickly to talk with you. Although it has no eyes or mouth, Jibo uses icons（图像）, such as a smile icon, to show feelings.
