One October morning, I planned to take Honey, my dog, out with me. We live in a ____1____ area up in the hills. Our driveway is barely wide enough for one car, with a ravine (深沟) on one side. While I was starting the car slowly, a flash of sunlight ____2____ me. I put my hand up to block the sunlight. Suddenly, the car slipped in the soft soil, and rolled down the ravine. After several rolls, we ____3____ upside down. I was stuck and felt a sharp pain in my chest. I looked over to find Honey. Luckily, she was okay.
We were at least 50 feet down. Just as I’d ____4____, my cellphone couldn’t get a signal.
Calm down! It old myself. At least I could get Honey out of here. Painfully, I reached over and picked her up and ____5____ put her through a broken window. “Go home, baby.” She jumped to the ground and raced up the side of the ravine.
I could do nothing but sit there for hours. The last bit of light faded away.
Slam! Was that a car door? “Help!” I shouted with all my ____6____.
“Mike! Where are you?” It was Robin, my closest neighbor, who lived two miles downhill from me.
Half an hour later, the rescue crew ____7____ and rushed me to the hospital.
The next day Robin brought Honey to the hospital. She got right up next to me on the bed and snuggled (依偎) close. With her there, it was like my pain ____8____. “I got home from work and Honey was waiting for me,” Robin said. “She got ____9____ and ran in circles, like she was trying to tell me something!” Robin figured he’d bring Honey back to my ____10____, and that’s when he heard me shout.
Honey, my life-saving hero!
