And to everyones surprise, tiny persimmons appeared on its branches.In the autumn, they were ripe enough to harvest, Kim picked each one with great care and filled many large bags. The sight of the bags filled his heart with joy and he happily shared the persimmons with his neighbors. Then, thinking the persimmons were truly unusual, he carefully wrapped up the largest onea watermelon-size persimmon and set out for Hanyang to deliver it to the king.The kind stared in disbelief when the secretary(秘书) placed the persimmon before him. “Ive never seen such a large persimmon. Its magnificent. The man who grew it should get an award. Is there anything as big as this persimmon among the gifts Ive received these days?”“Yes, there is. But it is quite rare and very valuable,” said the secretary,” Its a gold nugget(金块)”“Well, thats no problem. Present it to the man at once.” Said the king.So it was that Mr. Kim returned home with a gold nugget as big as a watermelon. News of his good luck spread quickly through the village. The greedy Mr. Pak made up to take the King something so that he would be awarded a gold nugget, too. He sold all his property (财产) to buy a really big ox(牛), hoping to get a gold nugget as big as the ox as an award.“This ox looks like a fine animal. And its very large. I shall give the man who brought it an award. What have I received recently that I can give him.” The King asked his secretary.“Well , Your Majesty. There is that watermelon- size persimmon you received a few days ago.” replied the secretary. “Oh, yes.
