When he got to the top of the mountain, he found that the rein was not in his hand and that the horse was gone.
_4.__ Once he was waiting for a friend at a bridge. While waiting, he became lost in thought. It started to rain. __5._ When he took out a piece of paper to write something down, the paper was wet and then he knew that it was raining. But after he put the paper into his pocket, he again forgot he was standing in the rain.
