Then I’d 44 a knock and hardly manage a weak, “Come in.” My mom, acting as a peacemaker, 45 slowly enter and sit next to me on the bed. I’d again try to 46 what I had said was true, 47 this time less angrily. Then mom calmly, strictly and lovingly showed to me her voice of 48 .

California Pizza Plus★★★

At California Pizza Plus you can satisfy your taste by designing your own pizza pie. You can select different pizza toppings. This it the place both for fun and mouth-watering food. The restaurant is decorated with old movie posters and the waiters are efficient and friendly.

On the Run

If you’re in a hurry, you should be able to get a good, quick meal-but not here. The service is slow and the food is not very inviting. It seems like the microwave has replaced the cook. French fries are oily, and the salad may have been fresh once, but not when it gets to your table. Restaurant Guide

The man traveling in the back of the ambulance which was running at a high speed along the streets of Baltimore that morning in 2008 had no business to be alive. By everything that was reasonable, and there were plenty of such things before, he should have been very dead indeed. But he wasn’t. As the people in the hospital pointed out after they had examined him, he was only slightly hurt. Yet he had just fallen 150 feet down a hotel lift shaft（电梯通道）!
