James’s New Bicycle

James shook his money box again. Nothing! He carefully  26  the coins that lay on the bed. $24.52 was all that he had. The bicycle he wanted was at least $90!  27   on earth was he going to get the  28  of the money?

He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was  29  to hang around with people when you were the only one without wheels. He thought about what he could do. There was no  30  asking his parents, for he knew they had no money to  31  .

There was only one way to get money, and that was to  32  it. He would have to find a job.  33   who would hire him and what could he do? He decided to ask Mr. Clay for advice, who usually had  34  on most things.

“Well, you can start right here,” said Mr. Clay. “My windows need cleaning and my car needs washing.”

That was the  35  of James’s odd-job(零工) business. For three months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He was amazed by the   36   of jobs that people found for him to do. He took dogs and babies for walks, cleared out cupboards, and mended books. He lost count of the  37  of cars he washed and windows he cleaned, but the   38  increased and he knew that he would soon have   39   for the bicycle he longed for.

The day   40  came when James counted his money and found $94.32. He   41  no time and went down to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted. He rode   42  home, hoping to show his new bicycle to his friends. It had been hard   43   for the money, but James knew that he valued his bicycle far more   44   he had bought it with his own money. He had   45  what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even more than the bicycle.

“ Fire! Fire!” What terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a strange house in the middle of the night! It was a large, old, wooden house and my room was on the top floor. I jumped out of bed, opened the door and stepped outside the house. There was full of thick smoke.

I began to run, but as I was still only half-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see fire all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open    door and ran into a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes, and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me.

I saw a doorway in fire, then I put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terrible, but I got through. As I reached the cold air outside, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry, I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I was in a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a night-dress and a borrowed man’s coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly.

She was the Mayor’s wife, and I had saved her baby.
