Farmer Jones and his wife

Complete the text using the correct form of the verb in brackets.

Farmer Jones met Jane when he was just a young man. He couldn’t help falling
(1 fall) in love with her immediately and asked her to marry him. She said yes
although she knew it would mean get (2 get) up early to milk the cows for the
rest of her life. “Love means never had (3 have) to get up early to milk the
cows”, said Farmer Jones, and explained that he would continue to get (4 get)
up early to milk the cows so Jane could sleep late every day. Everything went
well until they tried to increased (5 increase) their profits by buying some
chickens. The first night, a fox ate one of the chickens. Farmer Jones decided to
build (6 build) a fence to protect the chickens. But the ground was too hard, so
he couldn’t. He tried to use (7 use) an axe to break the ground but it was much
too hard. So, he went to the local shop and tried buying (8 buy) a gun. But he
didn’t have any identification, so he couldn’t buy one. He tried borrowing (9
borrow) one from his neighbors but they were all worried about the fox too. “I
regret not buying (10 buy) one when I had those rabbit problems”, he told Jane.
So, Jane went to the shop and bought a gun. That night she tried stopping (11
stop) the fox. At first, she tried to scare (12 scare) the fox by shooting into the
air but it didn’t work. So, she tried hitting (13 hit) the fox but she missed. She
called her husband and he ran after the fox try to catch (14 catch) it but he
wasn’t fast enough. They tried shouting (15 shout) at the fox and they tried
throwing (16 throw) things at it and they tried leaving (17 leave) other food for
the fox but nothing worked. Soon they had only 1 chicken left. They tried asking
(18 ask) their neighbors for help and one of their neighbors told them to try
putting (19 put) tiger dung on the ground. So, they went to the local zoo to try to
buy (20 buy) some tiger dung. They put the dung on the ground and they never
saw the fox again.

delicious food and the coldest weather of this region.
