One day, when Andy was taking a walk, he happened to pass by a charming farm. He noticed a farmer standing by the farm, looking _1_.
Andy was so curious that he asked the farmer, “Why do you look so worried? Have you grown wheat（小麦）?” The farmer _2_ shook his head. His face was filled with worry as he spoke, “No. I've noticed that the weather isn't great and I'm worried if it _3_, the newly planted wheat might get wet. There's a chance it won't come up at all, or even _4_, it will rot（腐烂）in the soil.”
Andy nodded with understanding and then asked, “Then, have you _5_ cotton?” The farmer _6_ for a while, and said, “No. I'm worried about the insects this season. Those insects might come and _7_ harm to the newly planted cotton. I simply can't take that _8_.”
Andy was surprised and asked again, “So, what have you planted then?” The farmer let out a heavy sigh and replied, “I haven't planted anything. I want to make sure that there's no _9_ of rain harming my crops and that there are no insects damaging them.”
