Wang Ming：Hi, Anna. In my Chinese class today, we read a famous story called Yu Gong Moves a Mountain. Anna：Oh, how does the story begin? Wang Ming：Well, once upon a time, there was a very old man. There were two mountains near his house. They were so high and big that it took a long time to walk to the other side. Anna：So what happened next? Wang Ming：Well, the old man told his family that they should all help him to move the mountains. Anna：Mm, but an old?man?probably couldn’t even move a small tree. Wang Ming：Yes, that’s what his wife said, too. Anna：And where would they put all the earth and?stone?from the mountains? Wang Ming：Yu Gong said they could?put?it into the sea because it’s big enough to?hold?everything. So they all started digging the next day. Wang Ming：Let me tell you the rest of the story about Yu Gong.Yu Gon and?his?family began to move some of the earth and?stone to the sea. One day, a?man?saw?Yu Gong and his children when they were working on moving the mountains. He told Yu Gong that he could never do it because he was old and weak. As soon as the man finished talking, Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died. His family would live and grow, but the mountains could not get bigger. So Yu Gong and his family kept on digging day after day and year after year. Finally, a?god?was so moved by Yu Gong that he sent two gods to take the mountains away. This story reminds us that you can never know what’s possible unless you try to make it happen. 王明：让我告诉你关于愚公的剩余的故事。愚公和他的家人开始把一些土和石头移到海里去。一天，一个人看见了愚公和他的孩子们在忙着移山。他告诉愚公他绝不可能做到，因为他年老体弱。这个人一说完，愚公就说他死后他的家人将继续移山。他的家人将会继续生存并且繁衍壮大，但是山不可能变得更大。因此愚公和他的家人日复一日，年复一年地坚持挖山。最后，天帝被愚公感动了，于是派了两个神仙移走了大山。这个故事提醒我们，你永远不知道什么是可能的，除非你努力让它发生。 instead是副词，常置于句子末尾。 4.As soon as the man finished speaking,Yu Gong said that….
