Their neighbor was a poor old man. He couldn’t move, see or hear. So, they spent a lot of time making fun of him. They showed no respect (尊敬) for his age.When the Great Wizard (大巫师) found out about it, he was very angry. He decided to teach the goblins a lesson. He cast a spell (施咒语). From that moment, every insult (侮辱) they gave the old man actually improved him, but had the opposite effect on the goblins themselves. Of course, the goblins knew nothing about the spelling. Every time they called the man an “old fool”, he became a little younger and smarter, while the goblins became a little older and more foolish.As time went on, these goblins were becoming very old, ugly and foolish, but they had no idea.Finally the Great Wizard asked the goblins to look at themselves. They were too afraid to see that they turned into ugly monsters. And when they finally knew what they did, it was too late.

She also had three friends: a duck, a cat and a dog. They all lived happily together. One day, the hen found a wheat seed (小麦种子). “Hey, who wants to help me plant this seed?” she asked.“Not me.” the duck said. “Nor can I.” the cat said. “I’m afraid not.” the dog said.“All right. I will do it by myself.” the hen said. She planted the seed and watered it. Wow! It grew quickly and yielded lots of wheat. “Hi! Who wants to help me harvest the wheat?” the hen asked.“Not me.” the duck said. “Nor can I.” the cat said. “I’m afraid not. “the dog said.“Fine. I will do it by myself.” the hen said. She worked all day long. By evening, she had two big bags full of wheat.“Hello friends! Who wants to help me grind (磨碎) this wheat?” she asked. Once again, all three of her friends refused.“I see that I will have to grind this by myself. I will make flour (面粉) and bake bread!”she said. The next day she baked delicious bread.“Hello! Who would like to eat some bread with me? “she asked.“I want to!” the duck said. “Me too! “the cat said. “I’d like some as well.” the dog said.“None of you can have a bite!

One of your good friends fell from a tree suddenly and died at my feet when I talked about your captivity.”As soon as these words was spoken, the businessman’s bird collapsed and fell to the bottom of the cage. “The news of his friend’s death has killed him, too,” thought the businessman. Sadly, he picked up the bird and put it on the window-sill. At once the bird got up and flew to a nearby tree. “Now you know,” he said, “that what you thought was disaster (灾难) was in fact ________.
