After several years of acting minor rôles in the Christmas play Eva had finally been given the main part.
1 N She never got to play the lead in the nativity play because her family had to flee from Austria.
2 I It was a strain for her to arrive in England with several of her close relatives.
2 K There were many other displaced people in the same situation.
3 A Early on in her stay Eva chanced upon a public library.
3 L She thought she would be told to go away because she was not entitled to be there.
3 O To her amazement, the librarian invited her to stay, and also told her it cost nothing to be a member of the library.
4 D In the library Eva came across a wide spectrum of society.
5 B One special friend faced the particularly uphill task of having to re-sit his professional exams as well as learning English from scratch.
5 G Eva and the librarian shared concerns that this individual got disheartened and frustrated.
6 J Eva gained a degree, married and conceived her first child.
7 P In those days matrons in charge of hospital wards were figures of considerable authority, and nurses were often afraid of them.
7 M Everyone was in awe of the hospital Consultant.
8 C Eva was too much in awe of the consultant obstetrician to dare to speak to him. 8 H The doctor thanked her for her support years earlier.
8 E It was strange for these three people to meet again, in such entirely different circumstances.
