　　A young man in Japan wanted to be a great artist．He thought that he must study with the best teacher who lived many miles away．After traveling for several days, he arrived at the school and then visited the teacher．“What do you wish to learn from me? ” the teacher asked．

　　“I want you to teach me your art and help me become one of the best artists in the country, ” the young man replied．“How long must I study? ”

　　“Ten years at least．” The teacher answered．

　　The guy thought, “Ten years is a lot of time．I don't have that much time．”

　　So he asked the teacher, “What if I study twice as hard as everyone else does? How long would it take then? ”

　　“Then it would take twenty years, ” replied the teacher．

　　The guy thought, “That's even longer! I don't want to spend twenty years learning something．Certainly if I try really hard I could learn it much quicker．”

　　So the student asked again, “What if I practice day and night with all my effort? How long would it take? ”

　　“Thirty years, ” the teacher answered．The young student wondered why the teacher kept telling him that it would take longer．

　　He asked the teacher, “Why is it that each time I said I would work harder, you told me that it would take longer? ”

　　“The answer is simple．With one eye looking at your destination(目的地), there is only one eye left with which to find the way, ” the teacher said．

　　Any endeavor(尝试)takes effort, but it also takes patience．If we have one without the other, we get off balance(平衡)．With only effort, we try and try but get frustrated(失落的)when we do not see results as fast as we would like, or we get tired very quickly．With only patience and no effort, we never really put our full attention to a task．This is as true with school work．

(1)

    Several years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America.
One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third
owned many buildings in the center of New York.
    The reporter was talking to them about being important.
    "How do we know if someone is really important?" the reporter asked the banker.
    The banker thought for a few moments and then said, "I think anybody who is invited to the White
House to meet the President of the United States is really important."
    The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. "Do you agree with that?" she
asked.
    The man shook his head, "No, I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You'd
only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president
of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it."
    The reporter turned to the third man. "Do you think so?"
    "No, I don't," he said. "I don't think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President
important."
    "Then what would make the visitor important?" the reporter and the other two men asked.
    "Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the
President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, 'It's for you.' "
