STONE SOUP
Once there was a poor, small village.
Everyone had very little, so they did not share with others.
One day, a tired and hungry traveler came to the village.
He knocked on the door of the first house.
A woman opened the door and asked,
"Who are you?"
"I am a tired and hungry traveler. May I have something to eat?" asked the man.
"Go away," the woman said.
We are poor and have no food.
She closed the door.
The traveler picked up a large stone and knocked on the woman’s door again.
"What do you want now?" she asked.
"You are poor like me. Maybe you’d like some of my wonderful stone soup," said the man.
"Stone soup?" said the woman.
"You can’t make soup from a stone!"
"You can," said the man.
"I can show you."
The woman didn’t believe him.
But she was hungry, so she invited him in.
The woman put a big pot of water on the stove.
The traveler put the stone in the water.
When the water was boiling, he took a sip啜飲,一小口.
"It’s good," he said.
"But a little salt and butter would make it better."
The woman gave him a little salt and butter.
Just then the woman’s husband came home with some carrots and potatoes.
"Let’s add those to the soup," said the traveler.
"It will taste even better!"

A village is like a small city or a very small town, not many people live in a village.
