Once upon a time there was a boy who liked drawing, but he was too poor to buy a brush. One night he said to himself,"If only I had a brush, I could draw pictures for the poor people in my village."

Suddenly an old man with a long white beard(胡須）appeared. He said, "Here is a brush for you. But you must only draw prictures for poor people with it."

Ma Liang began to draw a hen, and as he did so, it changed into a real hen. "Wow!"he said, "this brush must be magic!" Then he drew an axe（斧頭) for a poor woman and it changed into a real one.

Soon the king heard about Ma Liang's magic brush. He asked Ma Liang to draw him a tree with gold coins hanging on it, but Ma Liang refused. The king was so angry that he threw Ma Liang in prison（監(jiān)牢）."If I had a key, I could unlock the door,"Ma Liang said. So he drew a key and it changed into a real key. He opened the door quietly and escaped(逃跑). When the king got on his horse and chased him with his guards, Ma Liang drew a horse and it changed into a real horse. He rode the horse and ran away.

The old man woke up before sunrise, as he often did, to walk by the beach and greet the new day. As he moved through the early morning, he saw a young man , bending(彎腰) and reaching and throwing, in celebration of the perfect day soon to begin

As he came near, he realized that the young man was not dancing to the day, , but rather bending to check the debris (殘骸、殘余) left by the night's tide(潮水), stopping now and then to take starfish(海星) and then standing, to throw it back into the sea.

He asked the young man the purpose of the effort.“The tide has washed the starfish onto the beach and they cannot return to the sea by themselves ,” the young man repied.“when the sun rises, they will die, unless I throw them back into the sea.”
