The Goose that laid the Gold EggsA farmer and his wife once had a goose that laid a solid1 gold egg every day．Each evening they settled2 it securely3 in its pen in the corner of their kitchen with a bowl of the best corn and a saucer4 of freshwater Each morning they found a new，bright yellow egg in its nest of sweet hay5．One day the farmer's wife said to her husband：“These eggs are all very well，my dear，but though I suppose we will be rich in the end，it is a very slow way of making a fortune．By the time we get it，it will not be worth half what it is today．Now I have an idea．It is obvious to me that there must be a great store of golden6 eggs inside our goose．Why should we wait all our lives for her to lay them？Go and get a knife and we'11 have all the gold now while we can still enjoy it．”
“Well，”said the farmer doubtfully，“it seems a sad way to treat a good bird But on the other hand…”
Without another word he killed the goose and cut her open－only to find that inside she was just like any other goose，with no sign of a golden egg at all．“We'll not get rich quickly or slowly now，my dear，”said the farmer sadly．Don't be greedy．Exercises：
