Signs can sometimes be seen at the entrance of a house, expressing that a tramp（流浪汉）has passed. This special sign-language is frequently
50 by tramps to inform their
51 whether the host of a certain house is friendly or unfriendly, and to
52 them the trouble of making unnecessary calls.
Quite
53 one day, I came across a real tramp. He was such a rare sight these days that I stood some distance away and watched him. He was dressed just as a tramp should be in, old worn trousers, and a jacket many sizes too big for him. On his head there was a battered old hat and his boots were so old and worn; they were almost coming into pieces.
But the man himself looked cheerful as if he had not a
54 in
the world. He rubbed his nose with his forefinger,
55 a
funny turn, laid a small parcel
56 the front gate, and began
57 a
sign made by a former caller. Although the sign was meaningless to me, it must have been
58 , for the tramp’s face lit up with satisfaction. He entered the front gate
59 and rang the bell. When the door opened, I saw him raise his hat
60 couldn’t hear his words. The
61 was very short indeed, for no sooner had he spoken a few words than the door closed fiercely in his face.
I felt
62 for him as he walked sadly out of the house. But just as quickly, his face lit up again and he moved quickly towards the gate. There he stopped, looked at the sign, and shook his head seriously as if he had made a bad mistake.
63 deeply into his pockets, he produced a piece of chalk, rubbed out the existing sign and made a new one in its place. He stared at it for a moment smiling to himself, then gathered his belongings, pushed back his hat and began walking towards the next house at an unhurried
64 , whistling as he went along.
