    "I know that," said James," you buy watches at one price and sell them at a {#blank#}3{#/blank#} price. That's how we get so much money."

    "That's a cheap watch. We can only get few dollars from {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  it."

    "You are wrong, my son," George said," those cheap ones get {#blank#}5{#/blank#} money to us than any other watch in the shop."

    "I don't understand," James said.

    "Because they are really cheap, they are always breaking, and we make our money from fixing them."
