My father used to work in the city and seldom stayed at home. But he would come b  to help harvest rice every year.
One autumn, he promised to help our neighbor, who lost a     in a traffic accident in 1999 to harvest his rice. After Father harvested our own, his little rice picker broke. What’s worse, he had to return to work the next day b     his partner was ill in hospital. It m       that Father wouldn’t be back in a few days. It now seemed i       to help out the neighbor.
Father told us that he wouldn’t let the n      rice rot (糜烂) in the field. He decided to harvest it by hand w      a machine. “If tonight’s weather is clear, I think I can do it.” added my father. In fact, he was rather tired after a day’s harvest work.
After dinner, Father had a short rest and made his way to the field. A f      moon was glowing (发光) in the sky and the weather was cold but clear. He spent the whole night k     his word.
I would never f      the image(画面)：Father was cutting rice in the light of the harvest moon. Behind him, row after row of rice stocks(秸秆) stood at attention, showing respect for a man who kept his word.
