The boy's parents 3 about his bad temper. They considered what they could do and one day the father had an idea. He gave his 4 a hammer and a bag of nails*The father said, ＂Every time 5 get angry, take a nail and drive it into that old fence."
The fence was very hard and the hammer was heavy, but the boy was so 6 that during the very first day he had driven 37 nails. Day after day, the 7 of nails was gradually decreasing*. After some time, the boy started to understand that holding his temper was 8 than driving nails into the fence.
One day the boy didn't need the hammer and nails anymore 9 he learned to hold his temper perfectly. So he came to his father and told about his 10 . "Now every time, when you hold your temper all day long, 11 one nail," said the father.
Much time had passed. At last the boy could be12 himself as all the nails in the fence were gone. When he came to his father, he was asked to walk out to take a look at the fence. His father said, "You did a good job, but pay attention to the 13 that left. The fence will never be the same. The same happens when you say something hurtful to people, as your 14 leave scars*in their hearts like those holes in the fence. "
