　　     After school I went to play 3 in a park at the other end of the　　 town, and after my first game I walked 4 the park to the bus stop.　　 When we were 5 the town center, I happened to look　　 6 and saw I was holding just one boot. I looked under the seat but there was no　　 7 of the other one. Of course, I was only eight and not used to　　 8 boots together. One of them must have come undone. I could　　 9 my parents' faces when I told them I had lost it.

　　     I jumped off the bus and caught one going in the 10 direction. To my surprise, a lady who was a friend of my mother's was on it, and she　　 was surprised 11 , because she couldn't understand 12 I was going that　　 way at that time in the afternoon. I told her what had happened and　　 she wished 13 good luck.

　　     When I got to the park, I started walking slowly across it trying　　 to remember all of the various 14 roads I had taken. Suddenly, after　　 about 100 meters, I saw the boot 15 all by itself in the middle of the　　 grass. It seemed such a small object that I thought it was a miracle　　 that I had found it.
