I got there a little early so I 1 the car by the roadside and waited for her.来As I looked outside the car window, there was a small park where I saw a little boy, around one and a half to two years old, 2 freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short 3 .

I learned a lot from that 15 and experience, and have successfully brought that lesson with me in my many pursuits in life.1ArodeBstartedCparkedDbroke2AplayingBsmilingCrollingDrunning3AwayBlengthCtimeDdistance4AparkBcaveCprisonDcastle5AtearBsmileCpleasureDSurprise6AstopBwinCachieveDsucceed7AluckilyBapparently CactuallyDequally8AconfidentBjoyfulCquietDproud9AworryBdreamCaimDconclusion10AboyBchildCplayerDwinner11Achance BfortuneCapprovalDtrouble12AfailBrunCfallDcry13AembarrassingBdisa
