　　People spend their whole lives searching for love． I was no different． Until one day I decided to v 1 the local pound (动物收容站)． And there was love , waiting f 2 me．

　　The old dog was considered to be homeless． He had been found r 3 along the road on three legs, w 4 some serious wounds in his back and a damaged ear．

　　The people at the pound kept him b 5 he was friendly and they thought if someone had spent m 6 having his leg operated on, maybe the person would be looking for him． But no one came．

That day, I happened to walk by and see him． My heart went out to him． But I really couldn't take another dog h 7 ; I had four already． There has to be a limit, I thought, I can not s 8 them all．

　　Driving away from the pound, I knew the dog would be destroyed if I didn't take him． As I passed a church , the sign announcing this week’s sermon (布道) caught my eye． It was right before Christmas． It read： “Is there any r 9 at the hotel?” I knew at that moment there was always room for one m 10 , especially one that needed my love．

    Though we became firm   8   with our new neighbors, we often had causes to be made angry by them. Our garden became an unsafe place: little boys   9   as cowboys or Indians would jump up from behind bushes,   10   wooden guns at us and   11   us to put our hands up. Sometimes our lives were   12   ; at others, we were killed with a   13  “Bang! Bang！”. Even more dangerous were the arrows that occasionally came sailing  14    the garden fence.

    But we did not   15   go in fear for our lives. The Robinsons were friendly and helpful and when we left for the holidays, we knew we had nothing to fear  16   our neighbors were around. We understood what it was like to have  17   in the long friendless winter evenings   18   Mr. Robinson would   19   in for a cup of tea and chat; or when Mr.  Robinson would    20   over the fence and talk endlessly with father about gardening problems.
