Once there was a time when many people went hungry.A rich baker（面包店老板） said to twenty of the poorest children in the town，"In this basket there is a loaf of bread for each of you.Take it，and come back to me every day at this hour till God sends us better times."
    The hungry children gathered about the basket，and quarreled（爭(zhēng)吵） for the bread，because each wished to have the largest loaf.At last，they went away without even thanking the good gentleman.
    But Gretchen，a poorly-dressed little girl，did not quarrel with the rest，but remained standing modestly in the distance.When the ill-behaved girls had left，she took the smallest loaf，which alone was left in the basket，kissed the gentleman's hand，and went home.
    The next day the children were as ill-behaved as before，and poor，shy Gretchen received a loaf only half the size of the one she got the first day.When she came home，and her mother cut the loaf open，many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it.
    Her mother was very worried，and said，"Take the money back to the good gentleman at once，for it must have got into the dough（生面團(tuán)） by accident.Be quick，Gretchen!be quick!"
    But when the little girl gave the rich man her mother's message，he said，"No，no，my child，it was no mistake.I had the silver pieces put into the smallest loaf to reward you.Always be as contented（滿足的），peaceable，and thankful as you now are.Go home now，and tell your mother that the money is your own."
