Scene 1 The Honest Woodcutter (One day, H and G were chopping（砍） firewood （柴火）together in the mountain.) H(诚实的木匠): See all this hard work we’ve been doing. It’s really difficult for us to make a living. G(贪婪的木匠): Yes, I don’t know how many days we have to keep doing the same thing. Chop, chop, and chop.

H: Oh, thank you so much. Today is really my lucky day. I promise I’ll work even harder. I won’t let you down. God: That’s good, young man. Good luck!
