One summer afternoon, when I was about eight years old, I was looking at a beautiful rainbow (彩虹). Somebody said, “If you go to the 16 of the rainbow, you would find a lot of gold there under the ground.” So I 17 from the house, and set off toward the woods.
I was so 18 that I knew just where that rainbow ended. I remembered how 19 I was in my thoughts and what fine presents I promised to give all my friends. So thinking, almost before I knew it, I had 20 the thick forest, and the end of the rainbow was not there!But I saw it shining down among the trees a little farther off. So I moved on and on, through the bushes and across rapid streams(溪流). The woods grew 21 and darker, and the ground became wetter and wetter. Suddenly I met in my way a 22 porcupine(豪猪), who made himself still larger when he saw me. I was very afraid of it and I ran from it as fast as my 23 feet would carry me. In my 24 I forgot to keep my eyes on the rainbow. And at last, I 25 and looked for it. It was nowhere in sight!I cried into tears, for I had lost all my 26 .
But I soon found that my 27 had just begun: I was lost!I could not tell which was east or west. Crying and calling, though I knew that no one could 28 me. All at once I heard someone calling out my name, so I 29 up. It was my eldest brother. He gave me a hug and kissed away all my tears, and then he 30 me what the rainbow really is, “It is only painted air, and does not rest on the earth.”
