attacking more, he flied in the air with its graceful ___24___ in front of me. Had I been hurt, I wouldn’t have found it amusing but I was unhurt, it was ___25___ and I was laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!
I took a step forward, and my attacker rushed me again. He pushed and ___26___
me in the chest with his head and body over and over again with all his might. It’s just not everyday that ___27___ is attacked by a butterfly, so I stopped to find out the ___28___.

Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her.
