    Once upon a time, there was a young man called Don. One day, Don caught a large fish. As he was about to sell the fish, the fish suddenly started saying, "Please don't kill me!" Don thought to himself, "I must be dreaming! How can a fish talk?" The fish carried on, "You aren't dreaming. I can read your mind. If you set me free, I'll grant you three wishes." Don hesitated (犹豫) for a while, but put the fish back to the sea later on.

    Don continued his life as a fisherman just like before. One day, he walked past a poor village after fishing. Some children were sitting in front of their old and broken house. They had been hungry for days. Don quickly took out all his fish to them. He wished he could have more food for them. Suddenly, a lot of delicious food appeared on the table. While the children were sleeping after the big meal, Don saw that their clothes were too old. Don thought, "I hope they can have new clothes and I hope they can have new furniture so that they can live comfortably." Suddenly, the clothes on the children became new and clean. The furniture in the house became new and comfortable, too.

    Don remembered what the fish told him. "That fish kept its word …" he said to himself.
