But【C15】______lining up along the bank, taking turns, they gathered and pushed. Some had to walk farther into the water than they were【C16】______to go. Those pushed farther in water got frightened and in【C17】______frightened the others. They all retreated hastily and returned to their route. Only the few that were【C18】______enough got a drink. The others went【C19】______. There was no danger that day. Only the wildebeests’ fear and【C20】______of courage kept them from drinking. [br] 【C8】
