Task
translate the following passage.
"The return ride to the Paradise Valley Mall didn't take long, and as soon as Carly
pulled into a parking spot, she shut down her engine and took off for an entrance.
Carly didn't know how much trash would be tossed into a mall receptacle in a little
over two hours, but she thought what she had decided was a good idea. In five
minutes she spent digging through the trash can in which she
tossed the paper
ball, she learned that a lot of trash can be dumped in a few hours. As she got deeper
into it, she began to suspect the paper ball might be soaking under a discarded
container of soda. She felt much better when she spotted the crumpled sheet of paper
and wrapped her hand around it. It was dry.
Although Carly was anxious to look at the drawing again she was not anxious to
share its contents with the handful of people who had been watching her dig through
the trash. The drawing was none of their business, and besides that several of the
younger people had made some nasty remarks about
mentality. So she
slipped the paper ball into her jeans and walked off, paying no attention to the group
of kids who applauded her.
The parking lot proved to be the limit of
patience. She quickly found the
ends of the crumpled sheet of paper and worked to get it flattened out. Then she
looked hard at the drawing
brother had made. She realized why it had
bothered her. It looked a lot like Ned Chute."
CHAPTER 11
Task

order.
a) Finally Carly decided to continue her search for the fat guy without seeking
any assistance from the Chutes.
b) Carly immediately noticed some new trouble for the Chutes when she rolled
past their house: now they needed to have the van repaired because of the
terrible graffiti spray-painted all over it.
c) Avery Martin arrived before dinner flying in by a helicopter. Carly and Bella
were both happy to meet him after about two weeks of his trip.
