When Mr Sims asked him 2, Danny stood up and said, “It’s too much money for me. My dad hurt his back and has been out of 3 for a while. I’m not asking my parents for money.”
Sitting back down in his seat, Danny held his head up 4, even though whispering had already begun. I could only sit quietly in my seat, knowing those 5 could be about me when they found out I would not be going either.
“Danny, I’m very proud of you for 6 the situation that your parents are in,” Mr Sims replied.

“This year, we’re going to do things differently. The trip is at the end of the month, so there’s plenty of time for money 8. Each student must bring in at least one idea for that. If a student doesn’t want to help, then he or she will be staying here that day. Any 9?”
