题目内容:
Joe and his wife moved to a new farm with their three sons. A nearby farmer told Joe that there was gold in the soil of his new land. Joe believed and told his sons about it.
His sons actually began digging for gold in the land. Once they finished one piece they would start another. They began to realize that digging for gold was fun! Seeing that, Joe thought he would plant some crops where the dirt had been turned thoroughly. He planted com, tomatoes, and potatoes. His sons continued to dig through the soil, determined to find gold.
As each different crop became ready to be harvested, Joe started to realize that there was more than he and his family could ever eat. One of Joe 's neighbors suggested that he set up a vegetable stand. Joe and his wife did that very thing. This process went on for three years and Joe and his wife became quite rich from it. They were even able to send their sons off to college.
Remember at the beginning of the story Joe was told by his new neighbor that there was gold in the land? Well, the truth is, Joe' s understanding of the English language was less than perfect. His new neighbor friend actually told him that his land had rich soil.
