初中英语试题

Once upon a time, two brothers lived in a village. They were both famers and grew corn. The elder brother had many children to feed. The younger brother also had a big family to look after. Although the brothers were poor, they lived happily.

One year, there was a drought (干旱) and the corn didn’t grow well. The two brothers collected their small harvest and stored the grain in their barns (谷仓).

That night, the elder brother couldn’t sleep. He was worried about his brother. Would he have enough grain to feed his family? At last, the elder brother got out of bed. He went to his barn and filled a bag with grain. Then he went silently to his brother’s house and secretly added the grain to his brother’s pile (堆).

Every night, he did the same thing. He took some of his own grain and added it to his brother’s store. But after a while, he noticed something strange. His pile of grain never looked smaller in the morning.

One night, he decided to find out why. After it had got dark, he hid near his barn and watched. At last, a man came near with his own bag of grain. At first he didn’t know who he was. Then, he was amazed to see his own brother. Every night the younger brother had done the same thing—taking grain from his own pile to give to his brother.

It was true brotherly love!
