    I ____101____ him all that day and the rest of the days he worked with us. Jim was ____102____ late or early. He worked at a steady,____103____ pace. He was friendly to everyone he worked with, but ____104____ talked while he was working.

    An old man had been working for many years for a town. His job was to clear away natural waste from the pool water in the hills, which made up the lovely river flowing through the town nearby. Quietly and ____116____, the old man guarded the hills, ____117____ the leaves and branches, and cleaned up the dirt that would have ____118____ and polluted the fresh flow of water. The town soon became a popular attraction for tourists. Elegant swans floated along the clear river and the view was so beautiful ____119____ words.
    Years passed. One evening the town, ____120____ met. As they reviewed the budget, one man’s ____121____ caught sight of the salary ____122____ being paid to the seldom seen keeper of the river.

One afternoon, someone noticed a slight yellowish-brown _____129_____ in the river. A few days later, the water was much _____130_____. Within another week, an oily something covered some sections of the water along the banks, and a terrible _____131_____ was soon sensed. Swans left and so did the _____132_____.
