A
long time ago, there was a dishonest (不诚实的) bread {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (sell) at the
village market. She arrived early to get a good place and put her box of bread
under the market tree. Then she went {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (hide) somewhere not far
away.
Several
minutes later, a meat seller arrived and sat down. She was {#blank#}3{#/blank#}
because she didn't have breakfast that morning. She noticed the bread and wondered
who it belonged {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. "Whose bread is this?" she
shouted. Nobody answered, so she shouted again and again. Finally she thought
that there was no {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (own), so she took some of the bread to eat.
After
{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (see) this, the bread seller came up to the meat seller, "Because
you {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (take) some of my bread, you must give me some meat to pay
{#blank#}8{#/blank#} it," she said. The meat seller refused, so the bread seller
called other sellers to help her.
The
other sellers came and stood by the two women. They listened to their stories
in {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to decide who was right. At last, they found that the bread seller
left the bread there to trick (欺骗) the meat seller, so the meat seller didn't need {#blank#}10{#/blank#}
(pay).
