A
Once upon a time, there was a poor fisherman in a village near the sea. He always dreamed of having a lot of money. One day, he heard that two or three ships with diamonds (宝石) and gold sunk (沉没) in the nearby water. Because of this, for a long time he kept searching that area, and hoped to find the diamonds and gold.
One day, while he was sitting on his boat daydreaming, he suddenly felt something heavy pulling on his fishing rod (钓竿). He thought that good luck had finally come to him, and he pulled hard at it. “Wow! A big, shiny gold chain (链子)!” he said happily when he saw the thing. He then began to pull at the gold chain to try to get it all into the boat, but it seemed that there was no end to it. The more gold chain he got, the more seawater came into his boat.
However, the fisherman did not realize(意识到)it. He began to dream of a big house, a big piece of land, buying horses and cows... He kept pulling in the chain though the boat kept sinking. Finally, the boat went under the sea and the fisherman died.
