It was a market day (集市日) . A man stood behind his table and was selling nuts. He had many bags of nuts. Suddenly the man remembered something. “Today I must go to town. But who will sell these nuts for me?”

　　“Peter, ” he turned to a boy and said, “will you help me sell these nuts?”“Yes, I' m glad to, ” answered the boy. “But for the first hour I want to get one nut. ”

　　“Only one? This isn't much!”

　　“And for the second hour the double of it, that is two nuts. ”

　　“Just two? This isn't much, either. And for the third hour?”

　　“Again the double, four nuts. And for every further hour you have to pay me twice the nuts for the preceding (在前的) hour. ”

　　“This isn't much! ” said the man. “I will be back in five hours. Or maybe I' ll have to stay in town a bit longer. Now sit here with my nuts! ”

　　The man went away. Five hours passed and still the man wasn't back. Soon it was getting dark. The boy didn't leave. He sat at the market for exactly 24 hours.

　　The next morning the man came back. He said to Peter, “Give me your pocket! I' ll give you the nuts! ”“Into my pocket?” the boy laughed and then said, “The pocket is too small. You must give me a cartload (一车所载的量) of nuts . All these bags belong to (属于) me now. ” “What?”shouted the man. “You must be mad (疯的) . ”　　But the boy was right. Do you know why?

　　David was a young man who worked in an office in a big city. His hobby(爱好) was fishing, but he did not often get a chance to practise it.

　　Then on summer he decided to have a holiday in a beautiful place in the mountains where there were a lot of streams(小溪) . “I ought to be able to have some good fishing there, ” he said to himself .

　　The first morning after he arrived, he walked to the nearest stream with his fishing-rod. He saw an old man standing beside the water, so he asked him whether it was a private stream (私人的) . The old man answered that it was not, so David then said to him, “Well, then it won't be a crime if I catch some fish here, will it?”

　　“Oh, no, ”answered the old man, “it won't be a crime(罪行), but it will certainly be a miracle(奇迹) . ”
