听力原文: A fable is a short story which is not true. It is a story that teaches us a lesson. We call the lesson as moral. Fables are often about animals, like the one about the hare and the tortoise. Have you read that fable? Which one have your read? They are not always about animals, However. Here is a Chinese fable.
A fisherman called Ah Chong once went fishing, he lowered a line into the water, on which there were hooks. He intended to come back' later to collect the fish but the line began to feel very heavy so he hauled it into the boat. To his astonishment, a gold chain was on the hook. He hauled the chain into the boat but more and more chain appeared. Soon the bottom of the boat was covered by the glittering links of chain. "I shall be wealthy. I shall have jewels, silk clothes and hundrreds of servants," he thought. He went on pulling in the chain and did not notice that the boat was sinking under the weight of the gold chain. Finally, that boat sank to the bottom of the sea.
