Like me, Nan was 28 ―and was also hard of hearing. That evening Nan and I chatted for a bit 29.

“If you’re okay,” I said, “I think I’ll turn in.” Before I 30, I made sure the baby monitor was working.

“Good night, Nan,” I said. I 31 my stick and headed out the door. “See you tomorrow,” Nan called behind me. I locked the door and 32 my way home.

Several minutes 33 I heard a sound. It was Nan on the 34 . “Jim! Jim!” I heard over the monitor. “The house is 35 ! Help! ”

I went as 36 as I could to Debbie’s. I got to the front door. I could 37 a heavy, thick smoke. I put my hand on the doorknob(门把手), and reached for my key and 38 the door. “Here, Jim. Help!” Her voice was weak.
