in `open': no implicit conversion of nil into String (TypeError) from ex30.rb:3:in `<main>'

This is my file which I saved as ex30.rb :

filename = ARGV.first

txt = open(filename)

puts "Here's your file #{filename}:"
print txt.read

print "Type the filename again: "
file_again = $stdin.gets.chomp

txt_again = open(file_again)

print txt_again.read

This is the error I got when I tried to run it in my Terminal :

CaiGengYangs-MacBook-Pro:GoatBoy CaiGengYang$ ruby ex30.rb
ex30.rb:3:in `open': no implicit conversion of nil into String (TypeError)
	from ex30.rb:3:in `<main>'

What's the error here ?
