Lesson30 The Moon in the Well

A well is a hole in the ground. There is water at the bottom. To get thewater we turn a handle. This lets a bucket go down the well and into thewater. Then we turn the handle to bring the bucket up.One night a foolish man looked down a well. The water at the bottom waslike a mirror. The man saw the moon in the water.“The moon has fallen down the well,” he said. “I must get it out.”

He ran home to get a hook 1. He untied 2 the bucket from the rope and tied thehook to the rope. Then he turned the handle and let the hook go down intothe well. He wanted the hook to catch the moon and pull it up! The hookreached the water and the man turned the handle to pull up the hook. Butthe hook caught underneath 3 a big stone. The man pulled and pulled but thehandle would not move.Suddenly the stone moved. The hook flew up the well. The man fell on tohis back. He could see the sky. The moon was in the sky.“Good!” he said. “I have put the moon back into the sky!”

井中之月

井是地上的一个洞。井底有水。为了取到水,我们转动一个把手。这样就使一个桶下沉到井里的水中。然后我们转动把手将桶提上来。一天晚上,有个愚蠢的人俯视水井。井底的水像一面镜子。这个人看到了水中的月亮。

“月亮掉到井里了,”他说。“我一定要把它捞出来。”

他跑回家拿了一个钩子。他从绳子上解下捅,把钩子系到绳子上。然后转动把手,将钩子放到井中。他要让钩子钩住月亮把它拽上来。钩子沉到了水中,这个人旋转把手往上拽钩子。但是钩子钩住了水下的一块大石头。他拽呀,拽呀,可把手就是不动。突然石头移动了,钩子从井里蹦了出来。他仰天摔倒了,看到了天空。天上有月亮。

“好啊!”他说,“我终于把月亮弄回了天空!”
