3 . A question of timing

Read the story and fill in each blank with a suitable preposition of time .

My parents met ( 1 ) the Second World War : ( 2 ) August , 1943 , to be precise . My father was home ( 3 ) Leave from the front , and he had decided to spend the first week with an aunt in Liverpool . He hadn't seen her ( 4 ) several years , even though she had brought him up ( 5 ) his mother's death .

Liverpool is not the most beautiful city in the world , but it can be very pleasant ( 6 ) summertime , especially early ( 7 ) the morning . ( 8 ) this particular morning , however , my father was in no mood to enjoy the sunrise over the River Mersey . His train had left London 9 ) time , but ( 10 ) the time it got to Crewe , it was already three and a half hours ( 11 ) schedule . So he was in a bad mood and very tired ( 12 ) arrival at the station in Liverpool .

But something happened ( 13 ) minutes of his arrival that changed not only his mood , but also his whole life . Feeling thirsty ( 14 ) his long journey , he decided to go and have a cup of tea in the station café . Typically , it was shut ( 15 ) that early hour . A notice on the door read 'Opening hours : ( 16 ) 7 am ( 17 ) 5 . 30 pm' . He looked at the station clock : ten ( 18 ) seven . The café should be open ( 19 ) now , he thought . But , knowing station cafés , he realised that he might have to wait ( 20 ) eight or even nine o'clock before it opened .
Suddenly he noticed a pretty girl sitting on a bench . She was pouring tea from a thermos flask into a cup . He sat down and said : 'I've never seen such a pretty girl as you ( 21 ) all my life ! And I haven't had a hot drink ( 22 ) last night . If you give me a drink of your tea , I'll marry you and look after you ( 23 ) the rest of your life ! '

Believe it or not , she smiled at him , gave him the tea , and . . . well , I wouldn't be here now if the café hadn't been shut ( 24 ) that fateful day ( 25 ) August , 1943 .
