One day, three hungry men walked into a small village(村庄). Everyone told these travelers that there was no food. Really, the villagers didn't like sharing things with the men.
"Oh well, there is nothing more delicious than a bowl of stone(石头)soup," one traveler said.
The villagers thought this was strange, but decided to lend the men a big soup pot. The men made afire, put three stones with some water, and waited.
A villager looked at the soup and thought, "No soup is good without some carrots." He went home, got some carrots, and put them in the pot.
Another villager looked at the soup and thought, "The soup really needs potatoes!" so she took a few potatoes and put them into the soup. "
Soon, people brought beef, beans, tomatoes and pumpkins. A little of everything made a soup good.
When the stone soup was done and everyone tasted it, they all said that they didn't have anything so delicious! A soup from stones!
