The sons tried to 41 him to tell them in what part of the orchard the 42 was hidden, but he would tell them nothing more.
After the farmer was 43 , the sons went to work to find the pot of gold; since they did not 44 where the hiding-place was, they agreed to begin in a line, at one 45 of the orchard, and to dig until one of them should find the money.
They 46 until they had turned up the 47 from one end of the orchard to the other, 48 the tree-roots and between them. 49 no pot of gold was to be found. It seemed as if someone must have stolen it, or as if the farmer had been wandering in his wits. The three sons were bitterly 50 to have all their work for nothing.
The next olive 51 , the olive trees in the orchard bore(结果实)more fruit than they had 52 given; when it was 53 , it gave the sons a whole pot of gold.
And when they saw how much money had 54 the orchard, they suddenly understood what the wise father had 55 when he said, “There is gold hidden in the orchard. Dig for it, if you wish it.”

IS THERE LIFE ON EARTH?
There was great excitement on the planet of Venus(金星) this week. For the first time Venusian scientists managed to land a satellite on the planet Earth, and it has been sending back signals as well as photographs ever since.?
The satellite was directed into an area known as Manhattan (named after the great Venusian astronomer Prof. Manhattan, who first discovered it with his telescope 20 000 light years ago).Because of excellent weather conditions and extremely strong signals, Venusian scientists were able to get valuable information as to feasibility(可行性) of a manned flying saucer(飞碟) landing on Earth.A press conference was held at the Venus Institute of Technology.?
“We have come to the conclusion,based on last week's satellite landing,” Pro. Zog said,“that there is no life on the Earth.”?
“How do you know this?” the science reporter of the Venus Evening Star asked. ?
“For one thing, Earth's surface in the area of Manhattan is composed of solid concrete(混凝土)and nothing can grow there. For another, the atmosphere is filled with carbon monoxide(一氧化碳) and other deadly gases and nobody could possibly breathe this air and survive.”?
“What does this mean as far as our flying saucer program is concerned?”?
“We shall have to take our own oxygen with us, which means a much heavier flying saucer than we originally planned. ”
“Are there any other hazards that you discovered in your studies?”?
“Take a look at this photo. You see this dark cloud floating over the surface of Earth? We call this the Consolidated Edison Belt. We don't know what it is made of, but it could give us a lot of trouble and we shall have to make further tests before we send a Venus Being there.”?
“If what you say is true, won't this set back the flying saucer program several years?”?
“Yes, but we shall proceed as soon as the Grubstart gives us the added funds.”?
“Prof. Zog, why are we spending billions and billions of zilches to land a flying saucer on Earth when there is no life there?”?
“Because if we Venusians can learn to breathe in an Earth atmosphere, then we can live anywhere.”
During the week of great excitement the Venusian scientists succeeded in getting important information on whether they can_______.
A. land a satellite with Venus astronauts on Earth
B. make a first?rate flying saucer?
C. get a Earth Being to Venus
D. direct a flying saucer into Manhattan?
According to Prof.Zog,the Venusians will have to take their own oxygen with them when they carry out their flying saucer program because_______.?
A. they need it on their way to the planet of Earth?
B. the Earth's atmosphere is filled with deadly gases?
C. oxygen is far from enough in the area of Manhattan where the saucer is to land?
D. there is no air on the planet of Earth?
The “dark black cloud” on the photograph refers to_______.?
A. the polluted air floating over the surface of Earth?
B. the mass of tiny drops of water floating above Earth?
C. the things that are unknown to everybody?
D. the dark clouds gathering before a storm breaks?
The author wishes to call our attention to the fact_______.?
A. that modern man has polluted his environment to such an extent that he might destroy himself if he went on like this?
B. that there is no point in spending billions and billions of zilches to land a flying saucer on Earth?
C. that pollution has become so serious a problem on Earth that even Venusians find life there unbearable?
D. that it is difficult, if not altogether impossible, to land a manned flying saucer on Earth
