Now, let’s go sentence by sentence.

---

Sentence 1:

> When there is no _________ and it is ________, I have to stay _________.

- "No _______" — likely refers to sun, because if there's no sun, it might be cloudy or rainy.
- "It is ________" — this describes the weather. Since it's not sunny, it could be rainy.
- "I have to stay _________" — if it's raining, we stay inside.

So far:
- no sun
- it is rainy
- stay inside

✔ So: *When there is no sun and it is rainy, I have to stay inside.*

---

Sentence 2:

> I can do many things that I like when I am at _________.

- We're talking about being indoors during rain → probably home.

✔ So: *at home*

---

Sentence 3:

> First, I read a very _________ book.

- We need an adjective describing the book. The word interesting fits perfectly.

✔ So: *a very interesting book*

---

Sentence 4:

> Then, I play with my toys in my _________.

- A place where you keep toys — likely your room.

✔ So: *in my room*

---

Sentence 5:

> When it is a rainy _________, I also like to stay behind the _________ and watch the rain without getting _________.

- "Rainy _______" → must be day → "rainy day"
- "Behind the _________" → watching rain through a window
- "Without getting _________" → you don’t get wet when you’re behind a window

✔ So: *rainy day, behind the window, without getting wet*

---

Final Filled Passage:

> When there is no sun and it is rainy, I have to stay inside.
> I can do many things that I like when I am at home.
> First, I read a very interesting book.
> Then, I play with my toys in my room.
> When it is a rainy day, I also like to stay behind the window and watch the rain without getting wet.
