Once there lived two brothers. The elder was called Simon and the younger Victor. They _______ each other very much, and always took care of one another. Every day they worked from morning ______ night, getting as much gain谷物 as possible from their fields.
One late autumn evening, after their work in the ______ was done, Simon said to his wife, “ Victor got married last month. He has many bills账单 to pay. I think I will put a bag of rice in his barn谷仓.” “ Oh, that’s a good idea, ” said his wife. “But please don’t tell him, ” said Simon, “If he knows I put the rice there, he will ________ take it.”
So, late that night Simon took a bag of rice to Victor’s barn. The next day, when he looked at his own barn, he found _________ strange. “I took a bag of rice to Victor’s house last night, ______ I still have the same number of bags in my barn. _______ did that happen?”
Simon decided to take another bag of rice to his brother’s barn that night. But the next morning, he found the _______ number of bags in his barn again! “ This is very strange,” he thought.
That night he______ again. He carried a large bag of rice on his shoulder肩膀, and walked down the road to his younger brother’s house. In the bright moonlight, he could see another ______ coming down the road. He was carrying something on his _______ too.
“Young Brother!” Simon cried, “What are you doing?”
“I was ______ you, Older Brother,” said Victor, “Your family is ________ than mine. I thought you needed more rice.” The two brothers quickly _______ that they had been taking rice to each other. They ________ what they had done. “ It is good to have a brother like you,” they both said. And they lived happily ever after.
