Once upon a time there was an old man  1 had three sons.  2 them together, he said, “Sons, my end is near,  3 my oldest son I give half my camels, to my second one - third, and to my youngest one - ninth .”  4 he died .

Now,  5 man had seventeen camels, and the three brothers were puzzled to know how to share them as their father  6 . They thought a long time about the  7 , and it seemed that they must  8 kill some of the camels and cut them into pieces, or  9 their father. At last they went to their father's old friend and asked his  10 . As soon as he heard  11 story he said, “I  12 you. I honored (尊敬) your father, I am old . I have only one camel , but take it——it is yours . ”

Gratefully  13 sons took the old man' s camel,  14 that it was now easy to divide the camels  15 their father had wished. The oldest took  16 —— that was nine camels; the second took one-third , which was  17 ; and the youngest took  18 , which was two .

Only when  19 had received his share of camels did they discover that  20 a camel to share . So , out of gratitude (感激) to their father's friend , they returned the camel.
