That day I went home in Mom’s car. When Mom________at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed________old clothes. He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, because I had seen many like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless.

But this man was ________in some way. He was not sitting down with a sad expression. Instead, he had a radio in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious（珍贵的） thing he had.
