1、钓鱼的故事一个名叫李的人开始他的钓鱼假期。
钓鱼是他最喜欢的运动，他曾多次因钓鱼而得奖。
这个夏天天气很好，看起来很适合钓鱼，所以他决定去环游全国，在每条河里花上几天的时间钓鱼。
不幸的是，他运气并不好。
他仅仅只捕到一些小鱼。
他十分失望，当正准备回去的时候，他听说附近有一条大河全都是鱼。
他很容易的找到了那条河并且沿河流穿月乡村来到了一个位置，在那里河流流过了一个农场。
他决定请求农夫允许在这条河里钓鱼。
“你已得到了我的准许，”农夫说，“但你要小心。
有好几年我都阻止我的孩子靠近这条河流。
”“这条河很危险吗？”李问。
“不是河很危险，”农夫说“是鱼很危险。
它们是巨大的。
他们太大了以至于我的孩子不能抓住它们。
”李十分兴奋。
所有捕鱼者都想抓真正大的鱼。
“他们有多大？”他问。
“是这样的，”农夫告诉他，“上周我丢了一个超过三英尺长的，昨天我丢了一个超过四英尺的。
”“运气真差，”李说。
“我讨厌钩住了一条鱼后再让他跑了。
”“谁和你说丢鱼了？！”农夫说，“我失去的是我的两个孩子！”2、卖狗有一天，一个人带着一条大又丑的狗进了宠物店。

This will cure their pessimism and optimism."The father did as his friend told him.On Wednesday morning, the two sons opened their birthday presents respectively.This is always a pessimistic son, looking at his presents first. It was a very expensive gold watch, but he didn't seem to like it very much. He said, "I don't like it at all.". I bet it can't walk on time! It will always go faster or slower, and it may often be bad!Then I'll spend more money to fix it."Then the optimistic son looked at his present. He is very fond of his present. "Look! My father gave me a shoelace." He said. He raised the shoelace high and smiled happily."I haven't found any new shoes yet, but I'm sure they're around."!"5. betOne day, June Smith visited his family doctor.

Your beard is fake."""Oh, my God!" said June"Nothing," said the doctor. "I know what to do." my beard is not fake. "I'll tell him," I'll prove it. """Can I pull your beard to prove it?" asked your son""I think it's a chance to teach him, so I said, 'yes, you can pull my beard.'""Well, he pulled it, and he soon found out that my beard was real." the doctor smiled. "He had to give me $50., so he cured him of gambling."""Doctor," Mrs.Smith said. "You're wrong. You didn't cure him, but you made him worse."""So what?"""The day before you went to your place, you bet $100 bucks and you would have asked him to pull your beard."!"6. curePasty is in the hospital.

"It's beautiful there."""Well, yes. When I looked up at a bird in the tree, I fell upside down. I twisted my ankle and couldn't walk. Someone called an ambulance""But you don't have to twist your ankle to bandage those bandages," Mary said"Oh, I know," Pasty said. "But the problem is that the ambulance man lifted me to the stretcher. When they lifted me into the ambulance, I fell off the stretcher and fell on my foot."""But why do you have bandages on your arms?" Mary asked"Well, when I arrived at the hospital, the doctor gave me some painkillers, and then I fell asleep. Unfortunately, he got my name wrong."""Then another doctor operated on my arm," Mary said"That's right," Pasty said. "But I can't complain. My own doctor is right."It's good for me to go for a walk in the park. My headache has completely disappeared"7. please contact the information desk8., the price of steakTom is a shopkeeper. He has a shop in a small corner. This is the business hours. There are many different things from seven in the morning to 11 in the evening. Tom tried hard at his shop, but he had a good business and he was happy.Then there is a supermarket across the street. The supermarket is ten times the size of Tom's shop.The supermarket manager wants to leave Tom's customers away. He found that Tom's price also made him lower than Tom's..The crowd quickly stopped buying things from Tom's shop. They bought everything from the supermarket instead. Soon Tom's business was bad and he was very angry."It's not fair," Tom said. "I have to do something to teach the supermarket manager a lesson."The steak at the supermarket is $5 per pound. Tom put the flag at his window, "steak - $4.50 per pound."."Second days, the price in the supermarket steak is 4.25 U. S. dollars per pound. Tom changed his window and looked, "steak - $4 per pound."."An hour later, the sign said in the supermarket, "steak -- 3.75 dollars per pound."." Ten minutes later, Tom said on the window, "steak -- 3.50 dollars per pound."."Five minutes later, the supermarket said, "steak -- 2.50 dollars per pound."." 20 minutes later, Tom's window sign said, "steak -- 1 dollars per pound."."The supermarket manager crossed the road to Tom's shop. "This price cut must be stopped," he said. "My steak costs $4 per pound.". I sold it for 2.50 dollars a pound. I lost every minute of my money!""I'm going to stop cutting interest rates on all my prices," Tom said. "If you're willing to stop, you have to cut interest rates."."The supermarket manager agreed, and the two shook hands.Tom smiled. He didn't lose any money in a steak. He doesn't sell steak.9. seize the dayTom Jefferson likes to go fishing. He spends most of his life by the river.He likes to be alone in the fresh air, where no one disturbs him, and time flies for him.However, he is not a good catch. He didn't go fishing the wrong bait, and the cable was too fast.For whatever reason, he always catches big fish for them.But he just didn't confess it to his wife. He felt that if his wife knew he was wasting his time, he would complain incessantly. The wife will not let him go fishing, or even let him take her shopping! It was important for Tom, and his concealment made his wife think he was a good catch.To keep it hidden, Tom bought fish in the fish shop on his way back from the fishing. Then he would say to his wife that he caught big fish and ate big fish at dinner. One night, Tom, who was nothing, stopped at the fish shop on his way home."I want three perch." He said to the clerk. Throw it at me, and I can say to me again that I caught them. "The clerk smiled and said, "I advise you to buy a good salmon.".""Why?"" Tom asked."Your wife has been here an hour ago," she said. "If you come.",I'll make sure you catch a salmon."10. short holidaysAaron works for a company in a city. He worked very hard and was looking forward to his holiday.He used to go to the beach before taking a holiday. But one year, he saw an ad in the newspaper: "enjoy life in the country.". For a few weeks on the Lee farm, you can enjoy: delicious food, fresh air, horseback riding, walking, fishing. Reasonable price.""That's a good idea," he thought. "I'm going to spend a month in the house, enjoy the ride, and go for a walk and go fishing. It must be different from sitting on the beach."Four days later, he came back."What happened to Lee House?"" His friend asked him, "don't you like the country life there?"""Country life is good," Aaron said. "But there is one problem.""What?"""On the first day, a sheep died.". Our meal is roast mutton."Fresh meat is best.""I know, but on the second day, an ox died.". So we had roast beef.""You're so lucky.".""You don't know," said Aaron. "Third days, a pig died. We'll have roast pork.""Eat a different barbecue every day.".""Let me finish," Aaron said. "Fourth days, the farmer died. I dare not stay there for dinner."11. a free meal"I'm hungry," pat said to his friend, "Mike.". "Let's go somewhere to eat."They walked along the road until they came to an expensive restaurant."That's all right," said Pat. "This is the only place we need."."He opened the door and they went in.The head waiter came up to them at once."A table for two, gentlemen?" he asked."Yes.". Best table."He led them to a table near the window. He handed them the menu and left.Pat and Mike looked at him carefully, then ordered the menu, the most expensive dishes, and a bottle of good wine.An hour later, they almost finished their meal. This is the best food they've ever had, and now they're having dessert.Suddenly, pat looked into his plate carefully."What's this?" he cried, pointing to something small and black. The head waiter is hurrying to their table."Look at this!" pat said to him in a loud voice. "There's a dead fly in my dessert.". That's terrible. I think it's a good restaurant, but I'm wrong."The foreman was very embarrassed. I'm sorry, sir. Don't talk so loud. You upset other customers. I'm sorry about the flies. I'm afraid there are mistakes, even in the best restaurants. We shouldn't, of course, free your meals."Soon after that, Mike and pat passed by a hotel."Let's go for a drink," Pat said. "I still have a dead fly."12. birds (unable to find the original text and translation onthe Internet)13. a generous giftA woman, a church charity, a fundraiser. The money she collects will be given to a poor child without parental care.She went to find residential apartments and houses. She knocked on the door, to the people for money.She always says the same thing."Good morning.",I'm collecting some church charities. Please give generously. We need 5000 dollars." Then she took out a collection box. Most people put a few coins into a box.An artist lives in an apartment. He opened the door."Good morning," she said. "I'm collecting church charities. Please give generously. We need 5000 dollars."The artist thought for a moment and then said, "sorry, I don't have any money.". However, I'll give you a picture. It costs 400 dollars."The woman thanked the artist very much and took the picture off.A week later, she appealed to him."I'm sorry to trouble you," she said, "but we still need more money.". I need another 100 dollars. Could you do me a favor?"Of course," said the painter. "I will increase the value of my paintings to $500."14. magic (omitted)15. helping handsJane Warner's husband, Jack, was sent to prison for two years, and while he was stealing into jail, Jane had a very difficult time.She has two children, but she has no job. Her husband, of course, did not get any money, and the only way she got a small amount of money came from the government."I don't know we're going to make a living," she wrote. "My husband only gets enough money in jail to pay the rent.". There is not enough money for food. I think I'll grow vegetables in the garden. They will grow fast. We can grow vegetables."The garden is large and quiet, and many are covered with grass.When Jack Warner received his wife's letter, he answered right away."Don't dig the garden," he wrote. "The money I stole is hiding in that place."."All the letters will be read by a guard before the prisoner is posted.When the guard read Jack's letter, he handed it to the guard.When the guard read it, he called the police. He told them that Jack wrote to his wife.The police went to Jack's house at once. They carried their forks and shovels with them. They dug the garden, the money, but they did not find anything.When they had gone, Mrs. Warner wrote to her husband."The police are here today," she wrote. "They dug out all the grass. What should I do?"Her husband immediately replied, "grow vegetables."."。
