The Strangers that Came to Town is a short story by Ambrose Flack, which tells how an immigrant family from Croatia, the Duvitch, arrive in a small town in the United States, where due to the prejudices of its inhabitants regarding their appearance they suffer discrimination and undeserved tense situations, due to their kindness and generosity. Despite this initial situation, finally, people begin to accept them, as they start to know them and realize their kindness to other neighbors and villagers of the town.

Once when I was like 10 I was playing is my friend katies backyard and heard very faintly somebody yell my name. I figured it was my mom so i pretened like i didnt hear it so i could play a little longer. My concience got the better of me and i headed back like 10 mintues later to find my mom, bandeging my little sister who go stung by muptile wasps. She yelled my name that day and for the first time i realised i was responsible for her, for the most part. Maybe somethinglike that but more dramatic and stuff. Hope you use it
Yep, that's basically the whole task. To change the passage to become more 'upbeat', yet still share similar words to the previous words, the following could be changed to...
trudged= plodded
shuffled= staggered
scrutinised= questioned
sparse=meagre
closed in= confined
anxious= eager (Although eager and anxious generally do not share a similar definition, in this context they do as 'anxious' is used to describe being excited to do something, and share the same meaning of 'Very eager or concerned to do something or for something to happen'
pried= wrenched
confronted= suddenly exposed
puzzling=baffling
something=remarkable
used=castoff
questioned=pondered
anxious=uneasy
The gerund in this sentence is "learning". A gerund is a verb form which is acting as a noun, in this case after the preposition "in".
