Once upon a time a washer man(洗衣工) had two donkeys(毛驴). Let’s say Donkey-A and Donkey-B.
Donkey –A felt it was very 36 and could do better than the other. It always tried to 37 more load(担子) and walk fast in front of the washer man.
Innocent(无辜的) Donkey-B was 38, so it would walk normally, regardless of(不管/不顾) the washer man’s preference. 39 a period of time, the washer man started urging Donkey-B to be like Donkey-A.
Donkey-B, unable to walk fast, got continuous 40 from the washer man. It cried and said personally to Donkey-A, “Dear friend, only we two are here, why do we have to 41 with each other? We can carry 42 load at normal speed.
That made Donkey-A more energetic(精力充沛的)and it told the washer man that it could carry more load and 43 faster. The washer man started 44 Donkey-B to make it run faster. During the following days, Donkey-A carried more load and started running even faster.
But it was hard for Donkey-B to 45 that way. The washer man was disappointed, 46 he punished Donkey-B terribly, and finally it fell down 47.
Then the load of Donkey-B was also being 48 by Donkey-A, and still it had to run fast. Finally due to great tiredness it got tired and started feeling the 49.
But the washer man 50 more from Donkey-A. It tried its best, but couldn’t 51 his owner’s expectations. The washer man got angry with Donkey-A and started 52 it to take more load. But it couldn’t come to the owner’s 53. Finally the day came when due to disappointment the washer man killed Donkey-A and began 54 some other donkeys.
Think all colleagues(同事)are just the same and that everyone is 55. Don’t feel happy when your colleague is under pressure.

Once upon a time a king, in the company of his ministers, went to the imperial garden for a walk. When he was walking around a pond, a strange idea 26 upon him and he asked, “How many buckets(桶) of water are there in the pond?” The ministers looked at each other,  27 to give an answer.

Rather 28 , the king ordered, “You have three days’ grace. Any one who offers an answer will be handsomely awarded. Those who fail will be 29 .”

The time limit was due in the twinkling(闪烁)of an eye, yet the ministers were still at their wit’s end. At this time a child appeared who declared that he knew the answer. The king told his 30 ministers to go with the child for the measurement. To their 31 , the child refused the suggestion with a smile, “It is very easy. No 32 to go to the pond.” This made the king laugh 33 ,  “Alright, let us know what it is.” The child winked (眨眼) and said, “That 34 on the size of the bucket. If it is as big as the pond, there is one bucket of water; if it is half as big, two buckets; if one third as big, three buckets; if...” “Stop! That’s it. You’ve got the 35 .” The king was satisfied and the child was duly rewarded.

Why did the ministers feel it so different to settle the problem? Because they fell in a pitfall (陷阱), following a wrong way of thinking. People’s thinking often goes a habitual way — the beaten track of straightforwardness. 36  is a static (静态的) way presupposing every object definite and certain, i.e. the size of the pond and the bucket should be clearly 37 . If one of them is unknown, it will be difficult to do the measurement, let alone 38 . Why not change your mode of thought — from static to dynamic(动态的), from concrete to 39  ? If you adopt an indirect way and try to find out the proportional relation between the pond and the bucket, you’ll get an answer — flexible yet 40 to solve the problem.

Sometimes to get out of the difficulty one must change one’s way of thinking, or simply change one’s approach towards a problem.

1. A. fixed           B. focused           C. came            D. looked

2.A. struggling       B. thinking           C. falling          D. failing

3.A. disappointed     B. excited            C. pleased         D. contented

4.A. killed          B. punished           C. blamed         D. scolded

Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.

One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.

As he got closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.

As he got closer he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing?”

The young man paused, looked up and replied, “Throwing starfish in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?” “The sun is up and the tide is going out, and if I don’t throw them in they’ll die.”

“But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!”

The young man listened politely, then he bent down, picked another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said, “It made a difference for that one.”

There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can know that gift, we will gain through the strength of our visions the power to shape the future.
