Creamy, sweet, and irresistible, Betty does crazy things to feed her addiction to chocolate. 2Last Monday, desperate for chocolate, a thunderstorm did not deter her from going out for candy. 3Squinting past the windshield wipers, sheeting rain poured as she splashed into the parking lot of Food Town. 4Minutes later, wet but triumphant, her purchase was made. 5The store nearly charged five dollars for the candy, but she did not mind. 6She munched on it straight from the bag as she drove on the seat beside her. 7Eating and driving at the same time, an accident was barely avoided when she swerved to keep from hitting a pedestrian. 8She only saw him at the last minute. 9Then, struck by a bolt of lightning, she saw a huge tree that had split down the middle. 10She realized that she had taken an unnecessary risk in going out for candy in a thunderstorm that she did not really need at all.
