通读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后在各题所给的A，B，C，D四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案。

I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout(付款台) earlier today．All of the checkouts were 36, and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a(n) 37! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts 38; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she 39scan her own shopping.

I listened to her 40looking around as I loaded my stuff onto the conveyor belt (传送带)．I didn’t want 41to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go 42of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!

But then I 43back．Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl, 44her granddaughter．The girl’s part of the shopping 45of some comic books.

I couldn’t 46it．I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt, 47a space．“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and 48them to a big49．The woman was delighted, and even 50to complain ---- until she was walking away．

So,51bother having helped? It was because that little girl was probably taking in her granny’s complaint like a sponge(海绵)．She was learning how to 52situations like that by listening to her granny．I’d seen that I could interrupt that complaining, and put a smile and some 53into the middle of it．

We can all complain; we can all react 54, but it doesn’t have to be like that．And, even if only for a few 55, I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way．
