“Who are you? We don't like tramps(流浪汉)going 6 our home.”one of them shouted.
“Go away at once.”cried the other.
“But I'm not a 7 .”said the man, “All I want is food and stay for the night.”
“How 8 you come here? Go away at once!” they 9 , “We don't like your feet around our house.Go, go!”
The man moved on and reached a 10 house.On entering it he saw a 11 preparing their supper.Though the light was 12 and the furniture was poor, it made him feel 13 and comfortable.
“Can I have some 14 and rest for the night?” he asked.“Of course, friend,” said the woman, bringing forward a little chair for him.“We are going to 15 our supper.Come and 16 us.”
