    Peter didn't like to use his head. He never put his heart into his studies when he was at school. So he fell behind his classmates and couldn't pass the exams and he hardly finished middle school. Later on he found work in a factory. At first he worked in an office, but he was unable to do his job. He was sent to a workshop. He had to do some unskilled work there. He was always tired when he got home and went to bed as soon as he had supper.

　　Once the young man asked a barber(理发师) to cut his long hair off. He found the work was clean and light. He decided to be a barber too and he left the factory. He took the barber as his teacher. Three months passed, but he learned nothing and the barber lost his patience(耐心) and told him to go home. The young man stayed at home and had nothing to do. His father helped him to open a barber's shop in their small town, but nobody wouldn't had their hair cut in his shop. His father wanted others to believe Peter and asked his son to cut his hair off. The young was so afraid that he cut his father's ear off. The old man began to call out,“Ear! My ear!”“Peter picked the ear up and said,”“Stop shouting, daddy! Your ear is here.”
