She and her family hid away for nearly twenty-five months________they were discovered. During that time the only true friend was her diary.

Dear Kitty,
I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been able to be outdoors for so long ________ I’ve grown so crazy about everything to do with nature. I can well remember that there was a time when a deep bule sky, the song of the birds, moonlight and flowers could never have kept me spellbound. That’s changed since I was here.
... For example, one evening when it was so warm, I stayed awake on purpose until half past eleven in order to have a good look at the moon by myself. But as the moon gave far too much light, I didn’t dare open a window. Another time five months ago, I happened to be upstairs at dusk ________ the window was open. I didn’t go downstairs until the window had to be shut. The dark, rainy evening, the wind, the thundering clouds ________(hold) me entirely in their power; it was the first time in a year and a half that I’d seen the night face to face ...
... Sadly ... I am only able to look at nature through dirty curtains ________(hang) before very dusty windows. It’s no pleasure ________(look through) these any longer because n
ature is one thing ________(that/which) really must be experienced.
Yours,    Anne
