Coin confusion

Rachel looked through troubled eyes at his sister and said, “1 wouldn't have thought Eric would be a thief. His sister Sarah replied, “Whoa, that's a    accusation to make against your best friend!”

         Rachel remembered two days ago when he had brought out his coin collection for Eric to    .At the end of that day, Rachel's mother had asked him to do her a favor,so he had asked his friend,“1s it okay if I leave you for a few minutes?" Eric had said, "Go ahead. I'll clean up here,"      at the piles of coins on the floor.

         When Rachel had returned, it never occurred to him to    his coins until two days later that he realized some quarters were     .

         Sarah said, “Why don't you just ask him?”

         “Ask him what? Hey, Best Friend, did you     my coin collection?” Rachel thought for a moment,     if that would be a good idea. The theft of his collection left him with a feeling of    .“How could I have misjudged my friend's    ?"

         The next day Rachel went over to  Eric's house. Eric was acting funny sort of nervous, like he couldn't be    . In fact, Rachel thought Eric acted like someone with a secret. Anger blossomed (產(chǎn)生)as  Rachel watched Eric pretend to be kind,     Eric had obviously stolen from him. Rachel finally could not stand it anymore and stood up. Suddenly, Eric    ,“I can't stand it anymore!” Rachel was astonished at hearing his own      burst forth from his friend! Only, instead of sounding     , Eric sounded excited. He pulled something from underneath the chair.

         "Go to open it! I was going to wait until your birthday, but I can't wait1” Slowly, Rachel lifted the top of the     . Laid out in front of him were all of the quarters from his coin collection. Each quarter was in its own    in a new collection case.  Each quarter shone like it was new.

         Rachel felt     rush over his neck and ears. He    said, “Thank you this means...a great deal to me.” He was grateful that Eric had cut him     before he said something he would      . Eric was exactly the type of person he wanted as a friend !

12.C 考查動詞詞義。句意為:Rachel非常生氣,最后他忍不下去了,站了起來。這時候,Eric突
