   Long long ago, there was a farmer. He worked hard on his farm every day.

One day, he ____ an elf (精灵) sitting on a box when he worked. The farmer asked, “What’s ____ your box?” “A lot of money,” the elf answered. The farmer said, “It’s my money, ____ it is on my farm.”

The elf told the farmer, “I can give it to you, but you must ____ half of your harvest (收成) every year.” The farmer said, “OK. You can take the crops (庄稼) on the ground, and the crops ____ are mine (我的).”

A few days later, the farmer started to plant potatoes. Soon, the harvest time came. The elf came to ask for his crops. He only got the leaves (叶子) of the potatoes. And the farmer took his potatoes home ____.

The next year, the elf wanted ____ the crops under the ground. And the crops on the ground were for the farmer. This time, the farmer planted wheat (麦子). When the harvest time came, the farmer went to his farm and cut all the wheat. The elf came again and he didn’t find ____ under the ground. The elf was angry. He set fire (放火) to the farm. But the farmer ____ all his money and ran away.

What a ____ farmer!
