There was once a farmer who had a large field of corn. He worked on it with the ___1___ care, but the com was dying ___2___ there had been no rain for a long time. He felt very ___3___.
One day, as he stood looking up at the sky, two little raindrops saw him. One said to the other, "Look at that farmer. I feel very sorry ___4___ him. He works so hard in the field, but now it ___5___ up. I wish I might help him."
"Yes," said the other, "___6___ you are only a little raindrop. You can't wet ___7___ one plant."
"Well," said the first, "I know I ___8___ do much, but perhaps I can cheer him a little. I'll go down to show my support, if I can't do ___9___ more. Here I go!"
The second one said, "Well, I think I can do that, ___10___. Here I go!" So down went the two raindrops. One fell on the farmer's nose, and the other on a thirsty plant.
"What's that?" The farmer cried, "___11___ raindrop! I do believe we'll have a shower (阵雨) soon."
By this time other raindrops had seen what ___12___ did. One said, "If you two are doing such a good job, I shall follow!" And down it went. "And I!" said ___13___. "And !" they all said, until a whole shower went down and the corn ___14___ all because one little raindrop tried its best ___15___ what it could.
