The green wars

Every September, our town has a festival. There's a big parade through the city, with crowds of happy people eating junk food and waving little flags. Then everyone goes to the park on the edge of town, where the mayor 30________ a speech and everyone has fun. 

It is 31________ time I packed my bags to go and study engineering at university, but as soon as everyone has gone to the park, Janey picks me up in another 'borrowed' truck. 

'Get in,' she says. 'I've mixed soil and the fastest-growing variety of bamboo seeds you can order online. By the time the festival is over, there'll be a mini forest blocking the road to the supermarket. It really grows that fast.' Well … why not? I'll be at university next week anyway. 'Let's do it.'

Janey was right, bamboo 32________ grow fast. It was knee-high before anyone 33________ what we had done. By the time the council found someone to come and cut it down, our bamboo forest had grown taller than the mayor.

It was great, but they took it away. After what we did last year, no one had any doubt about who was responsible. Janey had 34________ the truck back, but the police traced the seed purchase to her bank account. She got six months in prison.

She didn't tell them I'd helped her, so I still went to university. By the time she got 35________ , I'd changed my degree to Agriculture and Wildlife. I figured I should really devote some time 36________ learning about gardening and stuff if Janey and I were going to succeed.
