Guión del audio:

During my childhood, I had a very special pet: a dog named Max. He was a
playful and loyal companion who brought joy to our family every day. One
sunny afternoon, while playing fetch in the backyard, Max suddenly vanished.
At first, I thought he might have chased after a bird or rabbit, but as the
minutes passed, my worry grew. I searched all around the neighborhood,
calling out his name and asking anyone I ran into if they had spotted him.
Despite my efforts, there was no sign of Max.

As the sun started to go down, I felt a sinking feeling in my chest. Tears filled
my eyes as I imagined the worst. I couldn't bear the thought of losing my
beloved pet. Determined not to give up, I kept on looking, going through every
street and alley, hoping for a miracle. Finally, just as darkness began to fall, I
caught sight of movement in the neighbor's garden.

Heart pounding with a mix of fear and excitement, I cautiously approached,

not knowing what I would discover. And there, hiding under a bush, was Max.
He looked scared and worn out, but as soon as he saw me, his tail began
wagging like crazy, and he let out a relieved bark. I picked him up in my arms,
feeling an overwhelming sense of relief and gratitude.

From that moment on, I realized just how much Max meant to me. He wasn't
just a pet; he was a cherished member of our family, always there to comfort
us with his boundless love and loyalty. This experience taught me the
importance of treasuring every moment we have with our furry friends and
never taking their presence for granted. Max may have given me a scare that
day, but he also taught me a valuable lesson in love and resilience that I'll
never forget.

Sentence with phrasal verb:

I kept on looking, going through every street and alley, hoping for a miracle.
