One summer, there was no ________ and the crops (庄稼) were dying. Harry looked at the crops in his own field worriedly and thought “I must do ________ to save these crops.” With this thought in mind, he went out to find a way to ________ this problem. He thought if there was a river full of water, he could dig a canal (沟渠) to his field. He walked on and on, feeling ________ and hungry, but he didn’t stop to have a rest. Finally, he found a river full of water. He was very happy and started digging a canal to his field.
When it was noon, his daughter asked Harry to ________ for lunch. But Harry did not go. He did not want to leave his ________ unfinished. He finished digging the canal late at night. He was very happy. He went home, had a good meal and ________ very well that night because he was no longer worried.
Peter had the same idea as Harry, ________ he just started, didn’t finish digging the canal. His field did not get enough water and all his crops ________. However, Harry’s field could be watered when needed. He had a good harvest because of his hard work.
