An ideal family

It had been a day like other days at the office. On the way back, Mr Reave thought about his wife and the girls who were always at him to make the whole thing over to his son Harold, to 30 ____________, and to spend his time enjoying himself. Enjoying himself! Sitting at home, conscious all the while that his life's work was slipping away… 

“Why will you be so unreasonable, father? There's absolutely no need for you to go to the office. 31 ____________, it only makes it very awkward for us when people persist in 32 _______________ how tired you're looking. Here's this huge house and garden. Surely, you could be happy in appreciating it for a change. Or you could 33 __________ up some hobby.”

As a matter of fact, no other house in the town was as 35 ___________ with elite guests as theirs; no other family entertained so much. And how taany times old Mr Reave had listened to praises of his wife, his girls, of himself even. 

“You're an ideal family, sir. It’s like something one reads about or sees 36 ________ the stage.”
