The park bench was deserted as I sat down to read beneath an old willow tree. Not  36  with life, I was down. A young boy out of breath  37  me, all tired from play. He stood right before me with his head tilted(倾斜的) down,  38  with great excitement,“Look what I found!”
In his hand was a flower, and what a  39  sight, with is petals(花瓣) all worn—not enough rain, or too little light.  40  him to take his dead flower and go off to play, I  41
