Questions 36~40 are based on the following passage.
I arrived at the railway station earlier than I had expected. As my train was not leaving
for another hour, I had plenty of time to spare. After buying some magazines to read on the
journey, I went to collect my suitcase I had left there three days before. There were only a
few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the check for my case. The check did
not seem to be where I had left it. I emptied everything from the wallet -- railway-tickets,
money, cards and photographs, but no matter how hard I searched, the check was nowhere
to be found.
When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man
stared at me as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to
describe the case. I told him that it was an old, brown-looking object no different from the
many cases I could see behind the counter. The assistant then gave me a piece of paper and
told me to make a list of the things in the case. If they were correct, he said I could lake the
case away. I tried to remember all the things I had hurriedly put in the case and wrote them
down as they came to me.
After I had done this, 1 went to look among hundreds of cases for mine. For one
dreadful (可怕的) moment, I felt worried that if someone had picked the check up, he could
have easily taken the case already. Fortunately, this had not happened, for, after a time, 1
found my case lying on its side high up in a corner. After examining the things inside, the
assistant was soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could lake it away. Again I took
out my wallet -- this time to pay. I pulled out a ten dollar note and the "lost" check slipped
out with it. I could not help blushing (脸红) and looked up at the assistant. He was nodding
his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before, too!
36. The writer got to the railway station __ the train left.
