Max and his wife Mary went to bed one night，and left the front door open.
"Get up and 1 the door. " Max said to his wife.
"No，you're supposed to do that，" said Mary to Max.
"I can't do that，" said Max. "I just said you must close it，and I2 go back on my word. "
"I never go back on my word，either，" responded Mary.
They reached an agreement that the first person to 3 should get the door closed. The wind blew awfully through the house. They shivered （哆嗦） in the cold but neither of them spoke.
A 4 named Peter saw the open door and entered the house directly. He took the gold 5 . Mary bought them just several days ago and those valuable items made her look beautiful，but she did not say a word. He took all the pounds. Max did not prevent him，either.
Peter lit a fire and cooked a big meal. Then he took away all the dishes，the glasses and other materials. Max and Mary still remained 6 . Peter left，without closing the door.
The next morning，Mary went out early to get some food. Max sat alone on the 7 . A travelling barber （理发师） saw the door open and walked in. "Do you need a haircut? " He asked. Max said 8 so the barber came into the house and cut his hair.
"Well，how do you like it? " He said when he finished. Max did not answer，so the barber cut off some more. "Well，I suppose it might be 9 to cut it all off completely，" the barber suggested. Max did not want his hair cut anymore， 10 he was not going to speak. The barber cut all his hair.
"Now，" said the barber， "you must 11 me. " Max had no money so he didn't say a word. "What? " shouted the barber. He went to the fireplace，took some soot（烟灰） and blew it all over Max's 12 . Still，Max did not say a word. The barber went out of the house 13 ，leaving the door open.
Some time later，Mary returned. She saw her husband sitting on the floor，with no hair and a 14 face，and shouted. "My poor Max! What happened? "
Max 15 suddenly，getting the victory， "You spoke first!" He said，walking around happily. Now，go and close the door!"
