Long, long ago, there were two brothers, the one rich and the other poor. When Christmas Eve came, the poor one had not a bite in the house, either of meat or bread; so he went to his brother, and begged him, in God's name, to give him something for Christmas Day. It was by no means the first time that the brother had been forced to give something to him, and he was not better pleased at being asked now than he generally was.
"If you will do what I ask you, you shall have a whole ham," said he. The poor one immediately thanked him, and promised this.
"Well, here is the ham, and now you must go straight to Dead Man's Hall," said the rich brother, throwing the ham to him.
"Well, I will do what I have promised," said the other, and he took the ham and set off. He went on and on for the livelong day, and at nightfall he came to a place where there was a bright light.
"I have no doubt this is the place," thought the man with the ham.
An old man with a long white beard was standing in the outhouse, chopping Yule logs.
"Good-evening," said the man with the ham.
"Good-evening to you. Where are you going at this late hour?" said the man.
"I am going to Dead Man's Hall, if only I am on the right track," answered the poor man.
"Oh! yes, you are right enough, for it is here," said the old man. "When you get inside they will all want to buy your ham, for they don't get much meat to eat there; but you must not sell it unless you can get the hand-mill which stands behind the door for it. When you come out again I will teach you how to stop the hand-mill, which is useful for almost everything."
So the man with the ham thanked the other for his good advice, and rapped at the door.
财富是音乐,达芬奇、莫奈的财富是色彩,父母的财富是丰富阅历,我的财富是青春。青春包容了希望,包容了憧憬,包容了欢乐。
清水涟漪是鱼儿的'财富,广阔天空是鸟儿的财富。清水、天空、鱼儿、鸟儿是人类的财富。财富归工业主?否则他们怎能将清水污染,向空气排放毒气?财富归猎手?否则他们怎能将鸟儿捕尽、射死?财富归我?否则我怎敢安闲地呼吸着空气中的清新软气?生态环境是财富。财富到底属于谁?不仅属于我,更属于大家。为保护我的我们的财富做出努力吧。
我没有金银财宝,汽车洋房,也没有很多money存在银行,但是我拥有青春的友谊,装得下满满的一箱。它是人生最大的一笔财富,足够一辈子享用。青春的友谊是无私的、纯洁的,不带任何功利之心。它像一杯清香的茶,在若干年后,才发觉是那么地令人怀念。因为它,我珍惜自己的拥有;因为它,我的青春才不会显得寂寞;因为它,我就是全世界最“富有”的人。
Last Sunday, Jim went out to fly a kite. The kite flew highly in the sky. Jim ran with it happily.
Suddenly the line was broken and the kite flew away. Soon it disappeared. Where was it?
Jim had no idea. So he had to run here and there to look for the kite. At last he saw it on the top of the tree. He tried to get it down. But he couldn’t. He felt sad.
