Lisa, 14, smiled as she turned to see who it was.

Then suddenly there was a screech（刹车声）of tires. Lisa   9   a gentle hand on her arm and a man's voice firmly, “Quick, into the car!” It was several minutes   10   she realized that it was a police patrol（巡逻）car.

But the   11   was not over yet. For the bees were still raging. And the police were uncertain what to do.

Learning that Lisa's home was only half a mile away, the driver   12   it with siren（报警器）blaring（喇叭声）. When the patrol car stopped   13   Lisa's home, she was still   14   , “They’re biting me. ”

Only after the girl's mother had rushed her to the   15   and put her fully-clothed   16   a cold shower was the last bee dislodged（移走）.

Then while Lisa stood sobbing, the mother and police officer Richard Panton removed 18 stings. A dozen more were later removed by a family   17   , who also gave Lisa injection(注射).

Lisa said, “I was very    18    that the police came by because nobody else   19   . And the doctor told me I could have been   20   if many more bees had stung me. ”
