Jim is a young farmer. He was once put into prison( 监狱). One day, he got a letter from his mother. “ I’m so worried about our farm,”she wrote.”it’s time to plant potatoes. I can’t dig (挖 ) all the fields(田地 ) by myself.” Jim read the letter and became sad. “ What can I do?” he thought. Then he had a good idea. He wrote to his mother,” don’t dig the fields. There is much money in the earth. Don’t plant potatoes until I come home.” Some days later, Jim got another letter from his mother. It said, “ Two days ago, about ten men came to our farm and dug all the fields. I can’t understand it. It seemed that they were looking for something. What should I do?” Jim smiled when he read his mother’s letter. He wrote a letter to his mother at once. It was very short. Guess what it would say. 小题1:Jim’s mother was much worried about___________.
