Just out of 19 , he let the slingshot fly , hitting it in the head ,and killed it. In a panic, he 20 the dead duck in the woodpile, only to see his sister Sally 21 be watching him.

After lunch that day Grandma said, “Sally, it’s your turn to wash the dishes.” But Sally said, “Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen.” And then she spoke 23 to him, “Remember the duck？” So Johnny did the dishes.

You see, I was watering the flowers at the window 30 I saw you shoot my duck with the slingshot, and I saw the whole thing. But because I love you, I 31 you. I was just wondering how long you would let Sally 32 of you.”
