5．Both Glad and Sad
A young man was traveling．It was getting late one day，and he was very thirsty．
（46）When he met an old man on the road，he asked him where he could get some water．The old man told him，"Walk along the road and you'll see a small river．（47） If you pick up some pebbles （鹅卵石）from the river bed，you will be both glad and sad"The young man thanked the old man and went on his way．When it got dark，he found the river and took a drink．He thought it silly to pick up pebbles，but he still picked some up．He then found a place to sleep．
The next morning，the young man found those pebbles became nice jewels （珠宝）．（48）Quickly he ran back to the river to get more，but there were only pebbles．
Looking at the beautiful jewels，he felt so sad because he didn't pick up more．At the same time，he was happy that he had at least picked some up．
46．当他在路上遇见一位老人时，他问老人哪里能找到水．．
47．如果你从河床里捡到一些鹅暖石，那么你会既高兴又悲伤/悲喜交加．．
48．为了得到更多的珠宝，他又快速跑回河边，但是那里只剩下鹅暖石．．
