Looking for gold

Two brothers sold all they had and went to California to look for gold. They discovered a vein (矿脉) of gold, and bought the land. Then they began the business of getting the gold out of the land. Everything went well at first, but later a strange thing happened. The vein of gold was gone! The brothers felt disappointed, but they kept on digging for a few months. Unfortunately, they got nothing, so they decided to give up. They sold the land for a few hundred dollars, and took the train back home.

Two years later the person who bought the land sent an engineer to check up on the vein of gold. The engineer told him to go on digging three feet deeper. Then they found gold.

If the brothers have more persistence (坚持), they will have a lot of gold now.

True (T) or False (F).

1. The two brothers kept on digging for a few months and got a lot of gold on the vein.
