A lot of people had told me to be careful of robbers(強盜) in the park, so usually I didn’t take any _____with me. What could robbers do to me? But one morning, my _____gave me a $ 10 bill and asked me to buy some bread on the way. While I was running through the park, another jogger(慢跑者) _____me. Just as I was wondering what was happening, he said sorry to me and ______running. I thought it was kind of strange, and suddenly it reminded me of my money, so I checked my pocket and found that the money was _____. Without thinking twice I ran after that jogger. The minute I held him by the arm, I shouted, “Give my money back! Now!” I am not usually a hot-headed(性急的) person, _____I got really angry this time. This seemed to frighten him.
