　　 Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting, and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again. However, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid．He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he has caught.

It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control. Everyone knows the rules, and more importantly, everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.

One day a stranger came to the nearest village and asked where he could find wild pigs. Somebody told him, and he went off. He had no 36 with him, and the village people  37 what he was going to 38 with the pigs.
When he came back a few months later and said that he had 39 all the pigs, the villagers were still more surprised, but some of them agreed to go with him 40 he asked for help in bringing the pigs out. They wanted to see whether he was telling 41 .
They soon discovered 42 he was. All the pigs were inside the enclosure(围栏) which had a fence round it and a 43 in one of its sides.
“44 did you do it?” they asked the stranger.
“ well, it was quite easy really,” he answered. “ I began by 45 some Indian corn. 46, they would not touch it, but after a few weeks, some of the younger pigs 47 to run out of the bushes, take some of the corn quickly, and then run back. Soon all the pigs were eating the corn I 48 out there. Then I began to build a fence round the corn. At first it was very 49, but little by little I built it higher and higher without 50 the pigs away. When I saw that they were 51 me to bring the corn each day 52 going and searching for their own food  53 they had done in the past, I can 54 one day while they were all eating inside the enclosure.

I entered St Thoma’s Hospital as a medical student at the age of 18 and spent five years there. I was an unsatisfactory student, for my heart, as you might have guessed, was not in it. I wanted, I had always wanted to be a writer, and in the evening, after my high tea, I wrote and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called “Liza of Lambeth”, which I sent to a publisher and was accepted. It appeared during my last year at the hospital and had something of a success. It was of course an accident, but naturally I did not know that. I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession; so, three days after I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out for Spain to write another book. Looking back now and knowing as I do the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I realize I was taking a fearful risk. It never even occurred to me.
The next ten years were very hard, and I earned an average of £100 a year. Then I had a bit of luck. The manager of the Court Theatre put on a play that failed ; the next play he arranged to put on was not ready , and he was at his wits’ end. He read a play of mine and, though he did not much like it, he thought it might just run for the six weeks till the play he had in mind to follow it with could be produced. It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town. One of the students at St Thomas’s Hospital asked the famous surgeon with whom I had worked whether he remembered me. “Yes, I remember him quite well, “he said. “ One of our failures, I’m afraid. “
