— For two days. I _______ here the day before yesterday.

    Last December it was very cold and it snowed a lot. One Saturday, John was playing on the hill near his house with a group of friends. Suddenly, he fell over and broke his leg. His friends ran to tell his mother. His mother and brother took him to the hospital.

    The doctor Said John had to stay in hospital for four to five weeks. John liked the doctors and the other children in the hospital because they were very friendly. At first he was happy because he didn't have to go to school. He laughed at all of his friends. They had to do a lot of homework. He enjoyed listening to music and watching his favorite television programs all day.

    But soon the Christmas holidays started. John was still in hospital. He was tired of watching television and listening to his CDs and he wanted to go home. "This is     " he thought. He felt sad so he started to cry.

    But then a man came to his room with a bag of gifts and a Christmas tree. John knew him from the television. He was a famous sports star who was visiting all the sick (生病的) children. And the man was not the only person who came that day. All the students from John's class came to visit him. And his math teacher brought him his "favorite" gift -- some math homework!
