Once upon a time,there was a boy named Jack who lived on a farm with his mother. They were very poor and had little to eat. Finally Jack's mother had to send him to the market to sell the cow.This made Jack very sad.
On his way to the market, Jack met a strange old man who offered him a handful of magic
beans in exchange for the cow.Jack was sure the colourful beans would bring good luck,so he agreed. He was very excited as he hurried home.
When he got home, his mother was very angry.''Magic beans?''she cried.''you have been cheated,Jack! You gave him the cow for nothing!''
Then she threw te beans out of the window and sent Jack to bed without any supper.
When he awoke the next morning, Jack was amazed to find a huge beanstalk had grown from the spot where his mother had thrown the beans.He still believed the beans would bring them luck, so he began climbing the beanstalk up up up.
At the top of the beanstalk, Jack found himself in a strange land.He followed a path that led to a huge castle.Inside,there was a dining room that had large piles of gold coins.Then he saw a huge table with plates of delicious food. He was so hungry,he climbed up and began to eat.
Just when he heard a loud rumbling sound,he looked up and saw a giant who was snoring as he slept.
Jack was so scared that he jumped down from the table and ran for the door,he grabbed some gold coins and quickly climbed back down the beanstalk.
Jack's mother was pleased when she saw the gold coins.And so Jack climbed back up to the castle.
This time,Jack found the giant's goose that laid golden eggs.He grabbed the goose,but it let out a loud squawk. The giant heard the noise and began to chase Jack.
Jack scurried past the giant and scrambled down the beanstalk,then he shouted,''Mother, Quick! Bring the axe!''
He chopped down the beanstalk and the giant fell to his death.With the goose and the golden coins,Jack and his mother lived happily ever after.
