Recycle means “change things into something else”. Although it energy to change something into something else, it’s better than things or burning them.

The 28 was that grandpa had no money with him, and that he couldn’t 29 any phone numbers, so Mason called all over the state trying to get help.
Grandpa told me that he just wanted me to tell Mason that he is a (n) 30 guy and would pay the money once he got home. But the man in charge there was 31because my grandfather seemed to be 32 . He had been going somewhere else when he got on the wrong bus and 33100 miles from home.
