The ant looked up and saw the young girlsitting in front of a huge pile of seeds. "Why are you sad?" asked the ant. "I'm the prisoner of a giant."the girl told the ant. "He won't let me go until I've made three separateheaps of grain, barley(大麦)and rye(黑麦)out of this huge pile of seeds in which they are allmixed together."

"Don't cry," the ant said,"my friends and I will help you." Soon thousands of ants were at work,separating the three kinds of seeds.
