   Once upon a time there was a farmer.Every day___________________________.

【考点】记叙文；中华文化与传统．

【答案】    Once upon a time there was a farmer.Every day they could only have enough food to eat and enough clothing to wear.If there was a famine due to crop failure，they had to go hungry.
   This young farmer wanted to improve his life.But he was too lazy and too cowardly.Being lazy and cowardly over everything，he often dreamed of having unexpected blessings.
  A miracle took place at last.One day in late autumn，when he was ploughing in the field，two groups of people were hunting nearby.As shouts were rising one after another，scared hares were running desperately.Suddenly，a blind hare dashed itself headlong against the stump of a dead tree in his field and died.That day，he ate his fill.
   From that day on，he no longer went in for farming again.From morning till night，he stayed by that miraculous stump，waiting for miracles to take place again.
