The fisherman and the goldfish
Once there lived a poor fisherman. Every day he went to fish. One day he caught a goldfish. The fish said to him, "Please let me go. I can give you anything you want. " The old man was kind and he let the fish go.
He went home and told his wife about the goldfish. His wife got very angry and said, "I want a new dress. Go and find the goldfish."
The old man went back to the sea. He asked the goldfish for a new dress. The goldfish said yes.
The man was happy to see his wife in a new dress, but his wife wasn't happy. She wanted a big house. He asked the fish and they got a big house.
But his wife was still not happy. This time she wanted to be the queen of the sea.
The goldfish said, "She wants too much. That's too bad."
The fisherman went back and saw his wife in their old hut.She was in her old dress again.
渔夫和金鱼
从前有一个贫穷的渔夫,他每天去钓鱼。一天他捉住了一条金鱼。这条鱼对他说:“请放我走吧。我能给你任何你想要的东西。”老人很善良,他放这条鱼走了。
他回家告诉他的妻子关于金鱼的事情。他的妻子变得很生气并说道:“我想要一条新的连衣裙。去找那条金鱼。”
老人返回到大海。他向金鱼要一条新的连衣裙。金鱼说可以。
男人很高兴看到他的妻子穿着新的连衣裙,但是他的妻子不高兴。她想要一所大房子。他请求金鱼,他们得到了一所大房子。
但是他的妻子仍然不高兴。这次她想成为大海的女王。
金鱼说:“她想要的太多。那很糟糕。”
渔夫回去看到他的妻子在他们的旧的小房子里。她又穿着她的旧连衣裙了。
