There was once a man who couldn’t sleep well because he was afraid that there was a stranger under his bed. He thought that as soon as he went to sleep, the stranger would come out from the bed and rob(抢劫)him. He was worried that the stranger might even kill him!

Every night, after he got into bed, the man had to get up again and looked under the bed. There was never anyone there, but as soon as he got back into bed, he had to get up and looked under the bed again. This went on for hours until at last he fell asleep from exhaustion(筋疲力尽).

The time came for the man to get married. He didn’t tell his wife about his fear but she soon found out because he kept her awake all night.

“You must go to see a doctor,” she told him. “He will make you become well. You won’t have such silly fear again.”

The man did as his wife told him. He told the doctor his problem, and the doctor said, “You can be well again, but it will take about two years. You must come and see me three times a week. The cost for each visit will be $75.”

The next day the man called the doctor and said, “ I won’t need to visit you again. I’m well.”

The doctor was amazed.(惊奇地) “How?” he asked. “Who made you get well?”

“My wife did,”the man said. “When I told her how much I would have to pay you, she cut the legs off the bed.”

Long long ago, there was a poor man. He worked hard in the field(田地), but he could not get anything from it. One day, after working for hours, he had a rest under a tree in the middle of the field. Just then, he saw a snake(蛇) coming out of an anthill(蚁丘). The man thought that the snake might be the God of the Field. If he did not give it anything, he could not get anything from the field.

At once he went to bring a bowl of milk and gave it to the snake. “God of the Field!I didn’t know that you live here. That’s why I never gave you anything. Please forgive(宽恕) me.” Then he went home.

The next day, when the man came, he found a gold coin in the bowl near the anthill. From then on, each time the man gave milk to the snake, he got a gold coin.

One day the man was so busy that he couldn’t send milk to the snake. So he asked his son to take care of the snake. The son brought milk to the anthill and gave it to the snake. The next day, when he came back, he found a gold coin in the bowl. After taking the gold coin, he thought, “This anthill must be full of gold coins. I can kill the snake and take them all.”
