Then, I set out in the cold to tackle (对付) the enemy that ________in my driveway. I fought________, my short arms swinging back and forth while the wind ________against my cheeks. However, after one long hour, I was not even halfway done. Completely ________, I dropped the shovel into the victorious snow, and went inside to lie down on the sofa.
