Peter felt a bit 3 of that waiter 4 his fine suit. The man knew a lot about 5 and he corrected Peter's order. “You'll have fish, sir,” he said, “with French fries.”
“Er…yes,” said Peter, “yes, that's right.” French fries? Perhaps that was the modern name for 6 , but Peter wasn't 7 .
The supper was very nice. Judith ate all 8 , but Peter couldn't quite finish his. (The French fries were in fact just potato chips.) The headwaiter brought the bill. Peter knew at once that something was wrong. There was a 9 in the bill. On the menu chicken with vegetables cost only 60 cents. But on the bill it was $2.00 10 , not $3.00. What was he going to do? Ought he to tell the waiter? 11 say nothing and just pay?
He continued to talk to Judith, but he was feeling 12 . The headwaiter was looking 13 at him, and Peter's face grew 14 . “Perhaps he is right,” Peter thought, “and I made a mistake. What will 15 think if I make another?”
He called to the waiter. The man smiled and came slowly across the room. Peter gave him 16 and three notes.
“Thank you, sir,” he said, “I hope you 17 the meal.”
Peter stood up 18 , and Judith and he went out. In the street Judith said, “I left 20 cents under my 19 for that nice headwaiter.” And Peter said to her, “I have given a dollar 20 .”

Finally, the government sent a letter to a famous 4 , Peter Thomassen.The government said that they would 5 $10, 000 if he could 6 the boars.
Thomassen 7 the offer and came to Boarland the following week.He said that he would solve the problem of the boars within two 8 .He didn't carry a gun with him.He spent the first whole week 9 watching the boars very carefully.
After that he made a 10 that the boars liked to eat a special kind of corn.They seemed to prefer eating the corn 11 all other foods.During the second week Thomassen got several large bags of the corn and carried them into the forest.He put several pieces of corn in an open field 12 the boars lived.At first 13 of the boars would eat the corn.However, after a few days, some of the 14 boars began to go near it.A few of them ran to the corn, ate a few pieces and then ran back into the forest. 15 more and more boars began to eat the corn.After a month most of the boars were eating the food Thomassen had 16 .Only a few were still 17 the village farms.
At the end of five weeks Thomassen went to the village and asked the people for 18 to build a fence.They wanted to go with him, but he told them not to 19 him.
During the sixth week, he started to build a very 20 fence around the open field.Of course, each day he brought more corn to the field.The pigs didn't seem to 21 that he was building a fence and they were happy because every day they received their favorite food 22 having to work for it.
Little by little the fence became higher and higher, and then one day he built a 23 and slowly closed it.In the middle of the eighth week, he went to tell the villagers he had solved the problem.This time the villagers followed him to the woods.They saw a fence one metre high, and the pigs were 24 , and they didn't seem to be 25 at all.
Thomassen explained,“Please feed them some corn every day and they'll never disturb you again.”He reveived his money because he had solved the problem.
