Cloze test:
The Florida sun baked my shoulders as I worked along the I-595 freeway near Fort Lauderdale , picking up rubbish 1 paused to wipe the sweat off my forehead and look up at the cloudless blue sky “ 1 can’t it rain?” I thought.That would 2 things off.
I thought about my friends , who were 3 sitting in an air - conditioned classroom at the high school right now.I’d had some problems in school , so my parents decided to let me work 4 with my dad.We both worked for my uncle , who had taken 5 of a road maintenance (道路养护) company.It was up to us to keep the roads clear of rubbish.The job was 6 and dirty , especially on hot days like this.I wondered why I ever agreed to do it.
We continued our 7 route along 595 , heading for the overpass bridge.Then I noticed an area where some trees were broken on the ground.They weren’t like that before.
“Dad! Pull over ! I want to 8 something out”
I jumped off the truck and rushed to the bridge.Something was telling me to hurry … there wasn’t much time 9 I saw a Toyota that hung upside down in the trees.Maybe it was a stolen car that somebody 10 there.Then I noticed something moving.It was a bloody leg poking out of the driver’s side window!
“Heeeelp!”a lady meaned (呻吟).
