I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, “Son, remember: Be slow and steady, and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must wish that already,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare didn’t happen to fall asleep, the tortoise would never win the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never win the race. That’s for sure.”
I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.

     "Be proud of what you do," my father always told me, "whether you are a boss or a cleaner." 1 当我15岁时, I got a summer job in a hospital. I was told that my duties would include sweeping floors, washing dishes and
cleaning toilets. I smiled and remembered dad's words."
     Even though my job was the lowest, 2 It made me feel excited. I regarded it as a challenge 3 因为它是
我的第一份工作.
I learned to be on time and tried to do everything well. In return, I was treated with respect
by doctors, nurses, and patients. Each morning I imagined that the dirty dishes would make patients more sick
if I were not there to wash them clean. After breakfast was done, I started sweeping the floors of all patients'
rooms and cleaning toilets. Though I was tired, I wanted my job to be done well. People would say, 4 "That
young man can always do everything well."

      Working in the hospital taught me that being proud of one's job is very important. I have swept the floors,
and I have been a manager."Be proud of what you do." 5 my father's words have deeply influenced me all my
life
. And I'm sure dad must be proud of me.
