【推荐1】On Saturday morning Tom looked at the fence with a bucket of white paint and a brush. He painted one little piece and sat down. He thought of the free boys and the fun he planned. He felt even worse. Suddenly he had an idea. He took his brush and started painting carefully.

Soon Ben Rogers appeared, eating an apple. Tom took no notice of him and kept painting. He stopped and looked at his work like an artist. “Hello, Tom. I’m going swimming. Don’t you wish you could? But of course, you have to work.”

Tom looked at Ben, then said, “What do you call work?” “Isn’t this work?”

Tom kept painting, and answered, “Well, maybe it is, and maybe it isn’t. All I know is, I like it.”

“Do you really like it?”

“Why not? Does a boy get a chance to paint a fence every day?”

Tom moved his brush carefully backwards and forwards and stepped back to look. Ben watched every move, getting more interested and said, “Hey, Tom, let me paint a little.”

“No, I don’t think so, Ben. Aunt Polly wants this fence painted carefully because it’s on the street. It’s difficult to do it right.”

“Come on, let me try.”

“I’d like to, Ben. But Aunt Polly won’t even let Sid do it.” “I’ll be careful. I’ll give you my apple.”

Tom gave Ben his brush with reluctance in his face, but with happiness in his heart. While Ben worked and sweated in the sun, Tom sat in the shade eating the apple and thinking how to catch more boys. Boys came to make fun, but stayed to paint. By the time Ben was tired, Tom had exchanged the next go with Billy Fisher for a good kite; and then Johnny Miller, and so on. By the time he had no more paint, he had lots of toys and treasures, and the fence had three coats of paint. He had learnt that to make someone want something, you only have to make it difficult to get.

【推荐2】One morning, a teacher was giving a lesson in a middle school. All of the students stared at him in surprise because the teacher had a rope in his hand.

At the beginning of the class, the teacher didn’t say anything. Instead, he started tying knots (打结) in the rope. Then he asked, “I have tied three knots in this rope. Is it the same rope I had before?”

One of the students replied, “It’s not easy to answer. The rope seems to have four from the outside. It has three knots which were not there before. But from the inside, it is still the changed same rope as it was before.”

“Yes, you are right!” the teacher said. “Now, I will untie (解开) these knots.” Then he began to pull both ends of the rope away from each other.

Seeing that, the student said, “You are not untying them. You are making them tighter (更紧的).” So the teacher stopped and asked, “How can I do to untie these knots?”

Some students replied, “You have to look at them closely and then you will know how they are tied. Then you can try to untie them.”

The teacher said, “That’s what I want to hear. In our lives, many people want to deal with problems, but they don’t even know the reasons that cause the problems. Just like the saying goes, everything must be carefully examined before we act. We need to first know the cause of a problem, and only then can we solve it as soon as possible.”
