Long ago there lived a kind old man. One day while walking through the woods, the old man found a butterfly's cocoon(茧). He took home. A few days later, a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly several hours as it struggled(挣扎) to force its body through that little hole.
Then the nice man decided (help) the butterfly, so he cut the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then came out (easy). But it had a fat body and small, shriveled(皱缩的) wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body would grow small in time. However, neither happened. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life (lie) with a fat body and shriveled wings. It was never able to fly.
What the man did not understand was that the struggle was a must for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening. That's the (nature) way of forcing fluid(营养液) from the body of the butterfly into its wings.
In this way, it would be ready for flight when it achieved its freedom from the cocoon. Sometimes struggles are exactly we need in our life. If we (allow) to go through our life without any (difficult), it will weaken us. We won't be strong as what we could have been. And we can never fly.
Greetings from Madrid! |
I can't believe I'm finally here! The trip from Hong Kong {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (be) long and tiring, but I made it. My hotel is nice and I am staying in a guesthouse in the central area of Madrid. I got a cheap and simple room, much {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (small) than my own room back home. It only has a small bed and shower, {#blank#}3{#/blank#} it is quite comfortable to stay in. The weather here is wonderful. It's warm and sunny, {#blank#}4{#/blank#} clear blue skies every day. It's great for sightseeing, because there are a lot of things to see and do. I've found a friendly guide here and yesterday I {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (show) around the city. Tomorrow he will take {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (I) to Andalusia to visit the city of Granada. I can't wait {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (see) the Alhambra Palace and other places of interest. Also, I {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (real) want to try the food there-especially gazpacho, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} kind of cold soup which I hear is special, very different from anything else in Spain. Love, |
