One day a poor man was cutting a big piece of wood (木头) near a river. Suddenly his old axe (斧子) fell into the water. He felt very sad because he lost his only axe. Then all at once a beautiful fairy (仙女) came out and asked the man what was the matter.
“I have lost my axe.” he said, “It fell into the water when I was cutting the wood.”

The fairy showed him a gold axe and asked, “Is that yours?”

“No.” said the man.

The fairy then showed him a silver (银) axe and asked again, “Is this yours?”

“No.” again answered the man.

Then she showed him the old axe.

“Yes, that is mine.” called out the happy man.

“I know it well enough.” said the fairy, “I only wanted to see if you would tell me the truth, and now I’ll give you the gold axe and the silver axe besides (包括) your own one.”

Jack had gone to the university to study history, but he kept playing all the time and at the end of his first year, his history professor failed him in his exams. He was so poor at his subject that he would have to leave the university. However, his father made up his mind that he would go to see the professor to ask him to let Jack go on his studies the next year.

“He’s a good boy,” said the father, “and if you let him pass this time, I’m sure he’ll improve a lot next year and pass the exam at the end of it really well.”

“No, no, that’s quite impossible.” said the professor at once, “Do you know, last month I asked him when Napoleon(拿破仑) had died, and he didn’t know!”

“Please, sir, give him another chance.” said Jack’s father. “You see, I’m afraid we don’t take any newspapers in our house, so none of us even know that Napoleon was ill.”
