Long time ago,there was a poor family in a small village. The family had a son called Jackson. He was a kind boy. He always saved his pocket money to help pay for (支付)his sister’s school fees.
One day，they had no food to eat. Jackson’s mother asked him to go fishing. So he went to the nearby river. He waited for a long time and caught a cod(鳕鱼)at last. The cod said to him， “If you don’t eat me，I will give you a pair of magic scissors(g一把魔术剪刀). And you can use the scissors to cut anything you want.” Jackson believed it and got the scissors.
When he got home，he told his parents and his sister about the magic scissors. They cut some food，and the delicious food was on the table. Then they cut a new house，and they had a new house. They were very happy，and didn’t worry about the food any more.
