Some of them are so【1】with detailed information and step-by-step instructions for performing the function, that you’d think this was a new sort of【2】which all of us are now required to learn. The strongest impression the casual reader gets is that proper dying has become an extraordinary,【3】an exotic experience, something only the specially trained can do.

One weekend【8】was a normal-looking elm, maybe a little bare in spots but【9】alarming, and the next weekend it was gone, passed over, departed, taken. Taken is right, for the tree surgeon came by yesterday with his【10】of young helpers and their cherry picker, and took it down branch by branch and carted it off in the back of a red truck, everyone【11】.
The dying【12】a field mouse, at the jaws of an amiable household cat, is a spectacle I have beheld many times. It【13】to make me wince. However, early in life I gave up throwing sticks【14】the cat to make him drop the mouse,【15】the dropped mouse regularly went ahead and died anyway. [br] 【15】
