I was resting when Jenny called. “There’s a thing that ________ you,” she said. “My cat found a mouse and I don’t know how you feel about cats with mice, although I have the ________ that you are afraid of bugs.”
“Bugs are afraid of me.” I said. Having been bitten by a spider, I decided my new ________ was simple: get them before they get you. “I will get it.”
The mouse was under the ________ when I arrived. After putting a broom handle beneath to force surrender, which ________, I walked beside the fridge, armed with a box.
It was a good plan, but it didn’t ________ according to plan. The box created a no-escape trap, the mouse ventured out and I slammed the box down. ________, the only thing inside the box was its tail, and the mouse was struggling to escape.
Meanwhile, sensing Jenny was going ________ on the mouse, I said, “Don’t you dare name it! It’s not your pet.” The mouse then crawled up on the broom handle, and we were now eyeball to eyeball.
I ________ for something else to get the mouse. She rushed over, and then a spatula (抹刀) descended over my shoulder.
“What? This is a MOUSE not a MOUSSE (奶油)!” Another container was handed. Despite my two-box move, the mouse ________ and shot back under the fridge.
I told Jenny to leave the kitchen light on, hoping the mouse would stay under the fridge and not ________ her bedroom at night.
