Jim is the son of a farm owner. One New Year's Day, when he was 15 years old, his father
him to work on the farm for one year in his free time. Jim was
with his father's idea. "That isn't my job. I have
schoolwork to do. " Hearing this, his father said, "I will promise(答应) to give you the best present if you
finish one year's work. " Jim thought for a while and
.
Starting one Saturday, the boy got up early and worked
until evening, just like any other farmer. Time passed
. Jim's crops grew very well. On 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
you want."
The boy smiled and showed his father a big piece of bread made from his wheat. "I've already got the
present. No pain, no gain.(不劳无获） I think this is what you wanted me to
."
His father was very pleased to hear that.
