問題詳情:
An old man who lived in a small back street of my hometown had to tolerate the nuisance of boys playing football and making a lot of noise outside his house at night.
One evening when the boys were particularly 41 ,he went out to talk to them. He explained that he had just 42 and was happy when he could see or hear boys playing his 43 game—football. He would 44 give them $25 each week to play in the street at night. The boys got 45 ,for they could hardly believe 46 they were being paid to do something they 47 .
The first two weeks had passed,the boys came to the old man’s house each weekend,and went away 48 with their $25. The third week when they came back, 49 ,the old man said he hadn’t had much money 50 himself and sent them away with only $15. The fourth week,the man said he had not yet received his 51 from the government and gave them only $10. The boys were very disappointed,but there was 52 much that they could do about it.
At the 53 of the fifth week,the boys came back and 54 at the old man’s door,waiting for their 55 . Slowly,the door opened and the old man appeared. He 56 that he could not afford to pay them $25 57 he had promised,but said he would give them $5 each week without 58 .
This was really too much for the boys. “You expect us to play seven days a week for merely $5!”They yelled.“ 59 !”
