Once upon a time, some children were f at the seaside when they caught a turtle. They beat it with stones. Just at that time, a young man came up and d them away. The turtle was very thankful and said, "Thanks for your kindness. I would like to invite you to a fantastic place. ”
The young man rode on the turtle's back and was t to a secret palace in the sea. When he reached the palace, he was amazed at the sightseeing, “What a nice palace!" To t him, the king of the turtles gave him a very big dinner. He hadn't e so much delicious food before. He was pleased with everything.
After dinner, the king said, “I'm going to give you two boxes, but you mustn't open both. Do r it!" The young man promised(保证) that he would o . _only one. Just then, a large wave sent him out of the sea.
After g back home, he opened the bigger box. To his surprise, the box was full of gold s brightly. “My God! I'm rich now!" Then he thought, “There must b something more expensive in the other box.” He broke his promise and opened it. Suddenly he became an old man who was over 80 years old. He was so sorry for what he did, but it was too late.
