Long long ago，there was a man and his wife who worked for an old man．One day，the old man pointed to a big box in his living room and said，“There’s only one thing you mustn’t do：Don’t open this 46　 ．”After saying this，he 　 47　 home．

The woman said to her husband，“There must be 　 48　 expensive in the box．Let’s open it，shall we?” Her husband didn’t want to do that，　 49　 the woman didn’t give up．

A few days later，the woman made a 　 50　 to find out what was in the box．Before her husband could stop her，she opened the box and looked into it．To her 　 51　 ，there was nothing in it．She tried hard to 　 52　 the box，but she failed．

That evening，the old man came home and found that the box was open．He was very 　 53　 and he asked the woman and her husband to leave his home at once．

“But there was nothing in the box，” the woman said，“We haven’t 　 54　 anything at all．”

The old man shouted，“The box is not important．Now I know that I can’t trust（信任）you．That’s what’s 　 55　 !”
