Текст на аудирование

Fortune

         One day a man was walking along the street. He carried an old bag in his hands. He was wondering why people who had so much money were never satisfied but always wanted more. “As for me,” he said, “if I only had enough to eat, I should not ask for anything else.”

          Just at this moment Fortune came down the street. She heard the man and stopped.

          “Listen,” she said, “I want to help you. Hold your bag, and I shall put diamonds into it. But if a diamond falls down to the ground, it will become dust.” The man agreed. He quickly opened his bag and Fortune put there a lot of diamonds. The bag began to grow heavy. “Is that enough?” asked Fortune. “Not yet.” The man’s hands began to tremble.

          “You’re the richest man in the world now,” said the Fortune. “Just a few more, and a few more,” said the man. Another diamond was added and the bag slipped. All the diamonds fell down to the ground and became dust.

            Fortune disappeared leaving the man in the street.
