For most of the day construction worker Sidney Smith and his brother – in – law Joseph Cha

For most of the day construction worker Sidney Smith and his brother – in – law Joseph Chambers had been   21  along the banks of Lake Waco with little   22 . Chambers suggested they go home, but Smith    33    that there were still several hours of daylight    24    　and there was one other place they might try a bit longer before     25    .
Smith drove his pickup（小货车）a couple of miles along the    26    road to get to the other side of the lake. This road, in the truest sense, was a path wagging in the heavy    27    area.

　　For several minutes the two men sat in the pickup    34    to decide whether they had happened to    35    someone’s bad practical joke or something far more serious. Smith with his brother-in-law got out of the pickup and     36    walked towards that thing some distance before them.
It was a young man who was already dead. They had got to tell    37    . Back into the pickup, Smith backed the pickup down the road    38    he could turn around, then    39    back. With the dead young man still on his mind, Smith felt as if he was going to be sick. God, how he    40    　they had given up fishing and gone home early.
