努力工作
休息一下

There’s a time for work and a time for play! Just because you don’t
think something is important right now, doesn’t mean you should
ignore it or put it off. It’s okay to have fun, but make sure your work
is done before! Always be prepared for what’s ahead!

有工作的时间，也有玩耍的时间！ 仅仅因为您认为现
在某件事不重要，并不意味着您应该忽略它或推迟它。

要开心
用你所拥有
的
It is foolish to be greedy. Everyone wants more! Of course we always
strive to be better and have bigger things. But it’s important to reflect

one day you might end up with nothing but regrets of things you
could have done.
贪婪是愚蠢的。 每个人都想要更多！ 当然，我们总是努力变

除了对你本可以做的事情感到后悔之外。

当有遗嘱时，
有一个办法。

Little by little does the trick. When at first you don’t succeed, try, try
again! Persistence is the key to solving any problem. If your first
solution doesn’t solve the problem, think of another solution. Keep
trying until you get the answer.
After all, it’s better than doing nothing at all!

一点一点就成功了。 当你一开始没有成功时，尝试，再尝试！

毕竟，这比什么都不做要好！ 25
 给猫敲响铃

A family of Mice has been living in fear because of a Cat. One day they come
together to discuss possible ideas to defeat the Cat. After much discussion,
one young Mouse gets up to suggest an idea. He suggests that they put a
bell around the Cat’s neck, so they can hear it when it approaches. All the
other Mice agree, apart from one wise, old Mouse. The old Mouse agrees with
the plan in theory, but asks, “Who will put the bell on the Cat?”

论打败猫的可能想法。 经过多次讨论后，一只年轻的老鼠站起来提

近时他们就能听到。 除了一只聪明的老老鼠外，所有其他老鼠都同
意。 老老鼠理论上同意这个计划，但问道：“谁来给猫戴铃铛呢？”

解决问题的计
划必须是明智
的
It is easy to propose impossible remedies. Having lots of ideas is
good for problem solving, but having ideas that work is even better. It
is never a good idea to boast about an idea, until you know it’s going
to work. Remember people want straight-forward solutions,
not more problems.
提出不可能的补救措施是很容易的。 拥有大量的想法对于解决
问题很有好处，但拥有行之有效的想法就更好了。 夸耀一个想
法从来都不是一个好主意，除非你知道它会起作用。 请记住，
人们想要直接的解决方案，而不是更多的问题。
27
 两只螃蟹

Two Crabs, a mother and a child are walking across the sand. The
mother Crab scolds her child for walking wrong and tells him to walk
more gracefully. The child Crab explains that he doesn’t know how to
and asks his mother to show him. The mother Crab is unable
to walk right herself.

带领举例
说明

Example is more powerful than precept. Nobody likes it when you ask
them to do something that you can’t even do yourself. Before making
unreasonable demands, it’s a good idea to be able to do that thing
first. Then you won’t feel stupid for making people do something
that’s impossible.

榜样比训诫更有力量。 当你要求他们做你自己都做不
到的事情时，没有人喜欢它。 在提出无理要求之前，
最好先能够做到那件事。 这样你就不会因为让人们做
一些不可能的事情而感到愚蠢。 29
