Gretchen，a poorly dressed little girl，did not fight or struggle(斗争)with the other children，but stood quietly in the distance(远处). When the badly behaved children had left.Gretchen took the smallest loaf，which was all that was left in the basket.She kissed the bakers hand and went home. The next day the children were as badly behaved as before.Gretchen got a loaf almost half the size of the one she got the first day.When she came home，her mother cut the loaf open.Many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it. Her mother was very worried and said，“Take the money back to the baker at once.The silver must have fallen into the dough ((揉好的)生面团)by accident.Be quick，Gretchen！” When the little girl gave the rich man her mothers message，he said，“It was no mistake，I had the silver pieces put into the smallest loaf to reward(奖赏)you.Always be as content(满足)，peaceable，and thankful as you now are.Go home now，and tell your mother that the money is yours to keep.” 1．Who gave the loafs to the poor children？(no more than 3 words) ___ __ 2．Why did the children fight over the bread？(no more than 6 words) ___ __ 3．What did Gretchen do while the others fought over the bread？(no more than 6 words) ___ __ __ 4．What did the girl do after she take the smallest loaf？(no more than 5 words) ___
