The place I work for kindly provides food for all attendants. However, what bothers is that they throw away all leftovers and there are usually lots!
Last week I finally made my point and (allow) to take a huge plate of very nice sandwiches away with me. It would have been
real shame to see them ending up in the dustbin. I went looking for the homeless guy,
usually sits in front of our local supermarket,
(pet) his dog on an old blanket. He was
(extreme) pleased when I showed him the food. He had nothing to carry the food in and offered to return the plate the following week.
we had never spoken before, I decided to trust him, and I was not
(disappoint). He brought it back clean yesterday.
This has made me understand that the homeless are easy (satisfy). And it has inspired me to share more
local homeless people .

(play) the piano．I still want to make music.
This (think) then leads me to think that life is like music．Sometimes the music
(produce) is perfect while other times we are out of tune．However, we all coutinue to create our own unique style of music．

One sentence from the news in Washington has remained in my mind since a trip last summer: “When you see people run againstthe crowd escaping the danger, they are
(probable) firefighters, police or journalists.”
I think this is most true for the firefighters. Whenever and wherever (disaster) happen — 9/11 Attacks in New York 14 years ago or the explosion in Tianjin on Wednesday night — it is always the firefighters
take the lead to run to the very center, saving lives by
(risk) their own. I cried today near the explosion site, not because of the smoke from the ongoing fire
because of a short message a firefighter sent to a trusted friend that went viral online. It reads, “If I cannot make it, my father is
(you) father; and please remember
(sweep) my mother’s tomb.” I was thrilled later to learn that he did make it.
“Everyone knows it’s (danger) to be a firefighter. But he has always liked it and has done it for 12 years,” his father said. “He survived this time, but no one knows what
(happen) next time.”
