That warm day was the only day of the week without rain. I opened the door, took a seat and began to enjoy the wonderful sunshine. Suddenly, I noticed that the house near mine had been sold. An elderly lady was in front of the door, with some beautiful flowers beside her. I walked to her. She looked to be in her early eighties and had the prettiest white hair.

    "Hi! My name is Karmen," I said smiling brightly at the old lady. She smiled back and said. "Hello, Karmen. I'm Henrietta." Her voice was very strong for someone at her age. Later, I learnt she was alone and had no family or relatives to help her. From that day on, I often visited her and helped her with her housework and sometimes she gave me some delicious food. A year passed, and I considered Henrietta to be one of my best friends.

    One day, I walked over for my morning visit and knocked on the door, but there was no answer. I knocked again, and she still didn't turn up. So I let myself in, using the key she had given me. I checked her living room and then her kitchen. I finally went into her bedroom, and she was lying peacefully on her bed. Beside her there were two notes. One was her will, which said all that she had would be given to me. The other was a thank-you note. I went to her bedside and cried sadly.

    Though several years have gone by, I still miss her deeply. Whenever I look at the beautiful flowers in front of her house. I remember the wonderful friendship we had.

Peter was shocked(震惊的)when their lost dog returned with a rosette(玫瑰花结) from a dog show.

He and his wife discovered their Bonnie1 on Sunday morning. " We fed the dogs as usual Bonnie was normally there first2 I was unable to see her there," Peter said. " I saw the gate had swung as I was making my3 to the kitchen and I thought 'Oh no' ."

The couple4 did a search around the house with their two daughters. And their neighbours even5 in too. Three hours later, she was6 nowhere to be seen. They began to7 . 

Bonnie was running along the side of the road while the humans were in panic(惊慌). Minutes after Bonnie ran off, John Wilmer noticed8 . He was driving his two dogs to a dog show. Running late for the show, Wilmer9 the lost dog and brought her to the event. He posted a photo of Bonnie online saying " Does10 know this dog?"

This was seen by Peter. After having got a touch11 Peter., he decided to help Bonnie12 the competition. It turned out this was a right13 . She came away from the show with a rosette for third place.

"Bonnie was fine when she got back," Peter said. "When she was missing, I had five14 in my head. The best was that she came back. This was even better than I 15 . She came back with a rosette.

I had a close friend Jack. At first, we were 1 , so we shared the same apartment. But then I 2 a big prize and had lots of money! If I felt like buying 3 . I bought it without thinking twice. Jack told me that he worried that I was spending too much, but I didn't take it seriously.

I moved to my own 4 later. I telephoned him only once or twice a week, but day by day I felt less close to him. Then I was 5 with my new friends. They were always telephoning me and asking me out to parties and 6 . And most of the time, I gave them beautiful gifts and paid for their meals. We had fun together.

7 , one day the bank told me that I had no more money. I thought my friends would help me, but they 8 to do that. They didn't 9 me. Finally, I had no one to talk to, nowhere to go. Those were dark days. I was lonely and unhappy.

To my surprise, it was Jack who reached out his helping hand. He 10 me to live with him again and helped me in many ways. Thanks to Jack, I understood the meaning of the saying"A friend in need is a friend indeed".
