Lily was walking to a party through a park one afternoon in her beautiful new dress. It was 1, but the ground was wet from rain in the morning. She walked near some boys and girls who were playing football in the 2. As Lily was walking past, the 3 hit her. It was wet and dirty, so her beautiful new dress became wet and dirty too. The boys and girls stopped playing to see if Lily was all right. They were very 4, but there was nothing they could do, and there was no time for Lily to go home and 5. Poor Lily had to go to the party with dirty clothes.
