There was a small boy living on a farm which seemed like so far away from everywhere. He needed to get up before sunrise every morning to start his everyday jobs and go out again later in the evening to do the same 36 .
During sunrise he would 37 a break and climb up the fence so that he could see the house with golden windows 38 the distance. He thought 39 great it would be to live there and his 40 would wander to imagine the modern equipment and electric devices that might 41 in the house. “If they could 42 the golden windows, they 43 have other nice things.” He then 44 himself, “Some day I will go there and see that wonderful place.”
Then one morning his father told him to stay at home and he would do the everyday jobs. 45 that this was his chance, he packed a sandwich and 46 the field towards the house with golden windows.
He walked and walked. As the afternoon went on, he began to realize how he misjudged the long 47 and something else was very wrong. As he 48 the house, he saw no golden windows but instead a place in bad 49 of a painting surrounded by a broken-down fence. He went to the tattered (破烂的) door and 50 . A small boy very 51 his age opened the door.
He asked him if he had seen the house with 52 windows. The boy said “Sure, I know” and 53 him to sit on the porch (门廊). As he sat there, he looked back from 54 he just came; the sunset 55 the windows of his house to gold there.
