47、ry的副词形式。3who此处为非限制性定语从句，因先行词为man，指人，故填who，并在从句中作主语。4an此处指“一张额外的票”，为泛指意义。且ticket为单数名词，又因为extra的发音是以元音音素开头的，所以填an。5from此处表示从钱包里拿钱出来，因此用介词from。6but“Im sorry，but.”为常用句式，but后引出道歉的原因。7before/until/till他提议让作者等一会儿直到他在商店里把钱换好。也可以用before，表示在钱换好之前让作者等一会儿。8him此处指那个男青年，作宾语，所以用宾格形式。9puzzled此处用形容词作伴随状语，表状态。10had c
