When he thought of the past, my grandfather would sometimes show us photographs of himself at school. They were brown and faded, and it was hard to believe that the blurred (模糊不清的 ) figure of the little boy was my grandfather. Besides, he wore a cap—all the boys in the photographs wore caps, pulled so far forward that half their faces were obscured (使……变模糊 ). When Grandfather asked us to pick him out from the group, we would invariably point to the wrong boy.
On one such occasion my younger sister, aged six, burst into tears when Grandfather proudly guided her finger to the right boy. "How could that boy be you?" she wailed (哭喊), "He should have a beard." We were, of course, all convinced that Grandfathers should have beards, preferably white and bushy, like our own grandfather’s. In fact, we would have been quite ready to argue the point, if challenged.
"I was a good scholar," Grandfather would say, wagging (摇动) his beard over the photographs, "I should’ve been top of the class if I hadn’t had to get up at six every morning to milk the cows and chop the wood, and again when I came home from school".
"But Saturdays? What did you do on Saturdays"?
"Saturdays, if it was fine, I’d be out all day in the fields with the men", replied Grandfather, "and if it was wet, I’d be helping my mother with odd jobs round the house. There wasn’t much time for studying".
We all tried hard to imagine what it would have been like to have been Grandfather getting up at the crack of dawn and never, apparently, having a moment for himself. It seemed we had learned something from what Grandfather had said about his childhood.
In the last paragraph the author said "We all tried hard to imagine..." because_____.
