Question

  Papa was a rancher (牧場(chǎng)主) .He worked with 1        He was proud of the way he 2       ,He always wore clean clothes even when he worked. That is very 3        for a rancher who works outside on a horse farm. He often said to me , " Son,you may not be able to buy the best clothes,but you must always keep those you have 4       . That is the important thing."Papa did what he said. His clothes were 5        dirty like those of most of the other ranchers I knew.

Papa never worked outside 6       a hat. He always wore the same kind of hat. It was a 7       hat. He never pushed the hat to one side of his head,he wore it straight and he did not push the top of his hat 8        like most cowboys do. Papa had 9        hats. One was his Sundayhat,the other was his everydayhat. When his Sundayhat got old,he wore it 10        and then bought a new Sundayhat. He wore his Sundayhat only to church or on holidays. Most of the time he 11        his Sundayhat in a special box. He hid it so we could not find it. Papa loves his hats and he 12        for them in a special way. He never threw them down on the 13       ,someone might sit on them. He even had a special place for his everydayhat. As soon as he came into the house from 14       ,he put his hat on the nail behind the kitchen door.

  Mama was very careful of Papa's hat. She was proud of the way he looked when he worked. She was not 15        to touch his Sundayhat. Then something happened. Maybe it was the 16        of the long summer,maybe Mama read about the hats in a magazine or book,she got the idea that Papa should not wear a 17       wool cowboy hat in the hot weather. She began to believe that Papa would 18        his hair if he did. Mama began to care more about Papa's hair than his hats. Perhaps it was Uncle George who made Mama 19        about Papa's hair. Uncle George had no hair. His head was as smooth as an egg. Papa had fake black hair that shone like 20       . It was terrible if Papa lost his hair because he wore a heavy wool cowboy hat. So Mama began to worry.
