Not a gold mine

Dreams of finding lost treasure almost came true recently. A new machine called 「The revealer」 has been invented and it has been used to detected gold which has been buried in the ground. The new machine was used in a cave near the seashore where –it is said—pirates used to hid gold. The pirates often bury gold in the cave

and then fail to collect it. Armed with the new machine, a search party went

into the cave hoping to find buried treasure. The leader of the party was

examining the soil near the entrance to the cave when the machine showed that

there was gold under the ground. Very excited, the party dug a hole two feet

deep. They finally found a small gold coin which was almost worthless. The party

then searched the whole cave thoroughly but did not find anything except an

empty tin trunk. In spite of this, many people are still confident that 「The revealer」

may reveal something of value fairly soon.

What did the team find?

New words: pirates 海盜 soil 泥土 tin錫制的 trunk 行李箱

ps:yesterday, i fogret recite and write, i will continue it this saturday as a supplement.
