I'm sitting outside Grandpa's
pigeon loft(鸽子房）and waiting for Goldie to come
home. I'm really nervous about it because I{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(ask)
to do an important job.
Goldie is Grandpa's champion(冠军)racing pigeon. She's famous because she{#blank#}2{#/blank#}(win) lots of cups. This morning she had a
race—flew two hundred miles away with lots of other
pigeons. And now she{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(race)
back home.
"Come on, Goldie. Come on,
Goldie!" That's me, calling Goldie back home. But I can't see her yet.
I really want Goldie to win
this race. I want{#blank#}4{#/blank#}give
Grandpa the good news when I see him tonight in the hospital. My eyes search
the blue sky，still no sign of Goldie.
"Calm down, Danny!" I
tell myself.
But it's hard to be calm. This
job is very important. I'll tell you why.
Before the race, they{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(put)a ring on every pigeon's leg. When
Goldie comes back, I will catch her to take her ring off, as fast{#blank#}6{#/blank#}I can, and put it in a little metal tube(管子),then put that tube in Grandpa's special clock. That
will record the time when Goldie finishes the race. It should be Grandpa's job.
But while he{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(prepare)
for the race, he fell ill suddenly and was sent to hospital.
So that's why I'm nervous,
waiting for Goldie. I'm getting more nervous every minute, because Goldie{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(be) here now. But the sky is blue and
empty.
"{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(not worry), "I tell myself." Goldie
always comes back. "But where is she? What will I tell Grandpa?
I wait until it's nearly dark.
I give up! Then I lock{#blank#}10{#/blank#}other
pigeons in the loft. I have to see Grandpa tonight in the hospital.
