A LESSON FROM A FROG TALE

A group of frogs were jumping through the woods when two of them fell into a deep hole. All of the other frogs  1  around the hole to see what could be done to help their   2  . When they saw how deep the hole was, the rest of the group   3  that it was hopeless and told the two frogs in the hole that they should prepare themselves for their fate（命运）, because they were as good as   4  .

Unwilling to accept this terrible fate, the two frogs began to jump with all of their   5  . Some of the frogs shouted into the hole that it was   6  , and that the two frogs wouldn’t be in that   7  if they has been more careful.

The other frogs continued  8  shouting that they two should save their   9 and give up, since they were already as good as dead. The two frogs  10  jumping as hard as they could, and after several hours of hopeless   11  they were quite tired.

Finally, one of the two frogs followed the calls of his fellows. Disheartened, he lay down at the   12  of the hole, and died as the others looked on in helpless sorrow. The other frog continued to jump with every bit of energy he had,  13  he was completely worn out.

His companions began a new shouting to him to accept his fate, stop the pain and   14  die. The frog jumped harder and harder and, wonder of wonders, finally jumped so   15  that he sprang from the hole.  16  , the other frogs celebrated his unbelievable freedom and then gathering around him asked, “Why did you continue jumping when we told you it was impossible?”  17  their lips, the astonished frog explained to them that he was deaf, and that when he saw their gestures and shouting, he thought they were   19  him on. What he had got as   19  inspired him to try harder and finally succeeded.

A student and his teacher were walking through the forest．The student was1  by the fact that his mind was in constant（不断的） unrest．

He asked his teacher 2 , “Why most people’s minds are restless , and only a few possess a 3  mind? What can one do to4   the mind?”

The teacher looked at the student, smiled and said, “I will tell you a story．An elephant was 5  and picking leaves from a tree．A small fly came, flying and buzzing near his 6  ．The elephant waved it away with his big ears, Then the fly came again, and the elephant 7  it away once more．

This was 8  several times．Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and 9 ？Why can’t you stay for a while in one place? ”

The fly answered, “I am10 to whatever I see, hear or smell．My five senses pull me constantly in all 11  and I cannot resist them．What is your 12 ? How can you stay so calm and still?”

The elephant stopped 13  and said, “My five senses do not rule my attention．Now that I am 14  immersed（沉浸） in eating ．In this way I can enjoy my 15  and chew it better．I rule and control my attention, and not the other way around．”

Upon 16  these words, the student’s eyes opened wide and a 17  smile appeared on his face．He looked at his teacher and said, “I understand! If my five senses are in control of my 18 , then my mind will be in constant unrest．If I 19  my five senses and attention, then my mind will become calm．”

“Yes, that’s right,” answered the teacher,” If the mind is 20  , it will go wherever the attention is．Control your attention, and you control your mind．”

    A certain student passed all his examinations．Then he went to college to continue his   1   ．There he put down his name for a course in geography．but after the first   2   ，he did not go to it any more．

    The geography lecturer   3   that this student was always   4   and thought that the student had changed to another course，so he was   5   when he saw the boy’s name on the   6   of students who want to take the geography   7   at the end of this year．

    When the student came into the room and sat down，the lecturer said to him，“I   16   that you came to my first lecture and you have been absent from all the others．But now I have examined your   17    very carefully and I have been able to find one small mistake in it．I am   18   to know your explanation for that．”

    “Oh，I am very   19   about that mistake。” answered the student．“After the examination，I realized what I ought to have   20   ．I would not have made that mistake if I had not been confused(搞乱) by your first lecture．”
