  Last year she came to visit us brought me a             1.___________

little dog for my birthday present. It was a little black       2.___________

dog with white spots on. It was so lovely that I            3.___________

liked it at once. Every day after school I played the         4.___________

dog and it gave me much more pleasure. I was glad         5.___________

to have it as my company. One day the dog went away        6.___________

and never came back again. All my families were out searching  7.___________

for it but it was nowhere to found. How I worried           8.___________

about it all those days. A week later a letter came about       9.___________

my aunt saying that the little dog had returned            10.___________

  A warm - heart nurse on her first day’s work came to    1.___________

a patient. She asked him she could do anything for        2.___________

him, and he only waved his hands and said something     3.___________

she could hardly understand. She asked him again        4.___________

and he just kept saying the different words, but           5.___________

in a more lower voice, before closing his eyes. She        6.___________

felt his pulse and found him death. She rushed to          7.___________

repeat to the doctor sounds she had heard. “My           8.___________

dear girl,” said the doctor after listen carfully to           9.___________

what she repeats,“he was saying you’re standing on        10.___________

to him, “I’m going to give you first injection now, Mr.         6.___________

John. When do you want it?” The old patient seemed puzzled .   7.___________
