It was 37 —on the grass, along the sidewalks, near the water pool, and even in the flower beds! Glass, plastic bottles, cigarette butts, napkins, tiny bits of paper... I collected nearly three bags 38 it in an hour.   I heard a 39 noise as I was taking a break on a bench. Looking down, I saw a 40 cat shaking on the grass. It was too weak to stand. Without waiting, I immediately took it to the nearest 41 hospital. The doctors there carefully checked its body and found that it had a broken leg, perhaps from being hit by a car. They quickly began to help the hurt animal, and I made my 42 back to the community.   On the way back, I saw the sky colored with light pink and blue-purple. The light of the setting sun filled me with a strong 43 feeling, and I felt proud of what I had done.
