One very cool day in the spring of the year, my father, who was a farmer, was ploughing, and I, nine years old, was 36 the horse．I didn't do the 37 very well as it was rather cold．It was a little38 than I could do to manage the task．

"Dad," said I, "how long 39 I stay in field?"

"about an hour，" he answered．

An hour 40 a great while and I said, "I 41 I could go home now-my 42 aches."

"I am very sorry," said my father, "but can't you 43 till it is time to go home for dinner?"

"I think not－my headache is getting to be pretty 44 ."

"Well," said he, 45 me off the horse, doubting my disease was rather in my heart than my head, "you may go home．I don't want you to work 46 you are sick．Go straight home, and tell your mother that I say you must take a large bowl of rhubarb(大黄)．Tell her that I think it will 47 you much!"

There was no choice．I went home, of course, and I had to offer the 48 to my mother．I told her, 49 , that I thought my head was better, 50 not to take the terrible 51．But it was of no use and it was too late．She understood my case as 52 as my father did．She knew well enough my 53 was laziness．So she prepared a large bowl of rhubarb and I had to swallow all of it．Dear me! How bitter it was! I am sure I would rather ride the horse all day than to be doctored in that way．Since then I never told another 54 .

Honesty is the best policy． 55 it, though there is another and a better reason．
