Tom is the son of a farm owner. One New Year’s Day, when he was 15, his father asked him
36 on the farm for one year when he was free. Tom was
37 with his father’s idea.“That isn’t my job. I have
38 school work to do.” Hearing this, his father said, “I promise to give you the best present if you
39 finish one year’s work.” Tom thought for a while and
40 .
Starting one Saturday, the boy got up early and worked hard until evening, just like
41 farmer. Time passed quickly. Tom’s crops(庄稼) grew well.
42 the last day of the year, the father called his son to him. “I’m happy to see that you have worked very hard the whole year,” said the father. “Now, tell me
43 you want.”
The boy smiled and showed his father a big piece of bread
44 his wheat. I’ve already got the best present: No pain, no gain. I think this is what you wanted me to know.” His father was
45 to hear that.
