Robert likes to take a walk in the park after work. One day when he was walkingin the park, he heard a woman calling his name. He stopped to look around, butdidn’t see anything 16 . Shortly after Robert saw it, it was gone.Though Robert felt a little strange, he did not think about it too much and satdown for a rest on a bench in the park. Then he noticed the snake he had just seen17 . Robert was too afraid to move away from the bench. Right at this moment,a woman behind him shouted, “Come here, Robert. You can’t stay on the bench likethat. 18 .”In surprise, Robert turned around and said to the woman, “Excuse me, but that’snot a very nice thing to say, and in fact some peoplesay I’m handsome.”“I’m not talking to you,” said the woman. “I’mtelling Robert, my pet snake, to get down from thebench, not you.”
