A little boy named Harry became very ill. He had to lie in bed all day, unable to move. He spent his days feeling _________ and blue.

There wasn’t much he could do except look out of the _________. Time passed, and his illness frustrated him. Until one day he saw a strange _________ in the window. It was a penguin eating a sausage sandwich. The penguin got in _________ the open window, and said “good afternoon” to Harry, turned around, and _________ quickly.   

Of course, Harry was very _________. He was still trying to work out what had happened. Outside his window he saw a monkey busy blowing up a balloon. At first Harry asked himself _________ that could possibly be, but after a while, as more and more crazy-looking _________ appeared outside the window, he couldn’t help_________ and found it hard to stop.

An elephant jumped on a stone, or a dog wore a pair of glasses and acted in a __________way. The little boy didn’t tell anyone about this. Those strange characters ended up putting joy back in his heart, and in his body. Before long, his health had __________ so much that he was able to go back to school again.

There he told his classmates all that he had __________. While he was talking to his best friend, he saw __________ coming out of his friend’s school bag. Harry asked his friend what it was, and he was so insistent (坚持) that __________ his friend had to show him what was in the bag.

There, inside, were all the things that his best friend had been using to try to __________ the little boy!

And from that day on, Harry always did his best to make sure that no one felt sad and alone.
