    In a hospital, a young girl had been ill in bed for almost two months. Beside her was her mother who looked pale. "Mum, I want to {#blank#}1{#/blank#} at the scenery outside the window!" said the young girl in a low voice.

    With the help of her mother, she came up to the window and looked out of it. The wind was blowing {#blank#}2{#/blank#}；she noticed some leaves falling off a big tree outside the window.

    "I am dying！I will leave the world {#blank#}3{#/blank#} all the leaves fall down." said the young girl.
