Question

Dwight Morrow was a famous banker and diplomat(外交官) of America in the 20th century.

Once, Morrow travelled in Rugby, England. During this period, he left the station nearby. While walking on and on, he got lost. So he asked a local boy of the way. The boy told him, “Turn right from here until a grocery store, and then turn left from there. Go straight on and you will find a place with a four-street intersection(十字路口)...” With that, the boy thought for a while and went on saying, “When you get there, you are not far from the station. Then you’d better ask someone else. But even if I tell you now, you may not remember.”

According to the boy’s guide, Morrow got to the four-street intersection pretty soon, and then asked a passerby there and quickly turned back to the station in no time.

This was a minor matter, but it had great influence on Morrow. Morrow realized that each person’s ability is limited and many problems can not be worked out in one day.
