文彦博与朋友踢球时，球被踢进了树洞里。
孩子们尝试取球，可是树洞太深，摸不到底。
文彦博想出办法后，叫朋友们提来几桶水。
……
Wen Yanbo lived in ancient China. One day, he was playing a ball with his friends on the grass near a big tree. Suddenly, the ball was kicked into the hole of the tree. The children tried to get the ball by hand. But the hole was so deep that they couldn’t touch the bottom of it. Wen Yanbo thought for a while and said, “I have an idea. Let’s have a try.” He asked his friends to carry some buckets of water and fill the tree hole with the water. When some water ran over, the ball floated. They got the ball finally. How clever Wen Yanbo was!
