In Britain there once lived a king and he was very fond of jokes (喜欢开玩笑) ." I will give a bag full of gold (金子) to the person who can tell me the best story." he said, "There is one rule (规则) , it must be a story which I can not believe. If I can believe it, then I won’t give away the bag of gold."
People came to the king from all parts of the country. They brought strange and wonderful stories. The king sat in his palace and listened to all the stories. He enjoyed them very much, but to each person he said, "I can believe that story. It could happen and it may be true. So I won’t give you the bag of gold."
At last a poor old man came to the palace. He was carrying a big jar (坛子) . The old man went into the king’s room and said, "Oh, King, your good father was once a poor man and my father was rich. They were very good friends. My father gave your father a large jar, like this one, and it was full of gold. Your father promised (答应) to give back the gold when he became rich. But he didn’t give it back. Now I’ m poor and you are rich. And I want the gold."
The king said, "I don’t believe that story. The jar is very big. There isn’t enough gold in all my country to fill that jar. My father didn’t tell me anything about a large jar full of gold."
"All right." the old man said, "Never mind. If you don’t believe the story, give me the bag of gold, please." The king remembered the rule and gave the man the bag of gold.
