In a village near a desert lived a young and successful businessman named James. He often felt {#blank#}1{#/blank#} because of the endless challenges he faced.

One day, a wise old man came to the village with 100 camels(骆驼). James went to see him and said,"I always have business worries, family troubles and health problems. Please tell me how to make them {#blank#}2{#/blank#}."

The old man smiled and said,"I' ll give you an {#blank#}3{#/blank#} tomorrow morning. But first, can you do a small thing for me?" James agreed. The old man asked him to take care of the 100 camels for the night, making sure that they all {#blank#}4{#/blank#} and rested before he could go to sleep.

The next morning, the old man asked James how his night went. James said sadly,"I didn't sleep at all. No matter how {#blank#}5{#/blank#} I tried, I couldn't get all the camels to sit together. Even if I managed to get some camels to sit on one side, a few others would stand on the other side."" That's true. Some camels sat down on their own, {#blank#}6{#/blank#} others required some effort, and yet many camels did not sit even after quite a lot of effort," the old man said.

James nodded.

The old man continued," Your problems are just {#blank#}7{#/blank#} the camels. There are always some problems that cannot get solved even if you' ve tried your best. Leave such problems to time until one day they themselves come to an end."

James felt a sense of understanding. It completely changed the way he saw life's challenges.

① Arat Montoya, 36, lives in West Linn, a city in the US. He is from a family of bakers. But he doesn't like making bread. When his father asked him to follow the family tradition, Montoya said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I love dogs. " he said. 

②Montoya spent a few years working at a dog club. After the club closed, Montoya started to offer(提 供) a doggie day care service(服务). He has a" Doggie School Bus" and he works as the driver. The bus runs five days a week and the service is $30 per(每一) dog each day. 

③Montoya's service is pretty nice. Every morning at about 7 a. m. , he drives the school bus to the owners'(主人) houses to pick up the dogs and takes them to" school"—a farm. The dogs are full of excitement because" go to school" means they can play all day. They can run around and play with each other at" school". When" school" finishes, Montoya takes the dogs back home. He also sends some videos and pictures to show the dogs'" school" life to the dogs' owners. 

④ It shows that the doggie day care service is a great business(生意) idea. Montoya loves taking care of those dogs. And the dogs love going to" school". The most important is that the dogs' owners speak highly of Montoya and his business. All of them are happy about this doggie day care service. 

⑤Now, more than 300 owners ask Montoya to take care of their dogs. "I'm the happiest man in the world, " Montoya said. " Doing what I like truly makes me happy. "

 Two men were sitting together in a plane. They were on a long journey. One of the men was a businessman. The other was a farmer. They sat without talking for a while, and then the farmer said, "Let's do something to pass the time."

"What do you want to do?" the businessman asked.

"We can ask each other riddles(谜语)," the farmer said.

"OK. Let's make rules first," the businessman said. "If you don't know the answer to a riddle, you pay me $ 100. And if I don't know the answer, I' ll pay you$100."

"That's not fair(公平). You are a businessman with much knowledge. You know more things than I do. I am just a farmer," the farmer said.

"That's true," the businessman said. "What do you want us to do?"

"If you don't know the answer to a riddle, you pay me $ 100. And if I don't know the answer, I' ll pay you $50," the farmer said. The businessman thought about this, and then he said, "OK. That's fair. Who will go first?"

"I will," the farmer said. "Here is my riddle. What has three legs when it walks, but only two legs when it flies?"

 The businessman thought for a long time and said, "Mm, that's a good one. I'm afraid I don't know the answer." He gave the farmer $ 100, and then he said, "Tell me the answer."

"I don't know," the farmer said. Then he gave the businessman $50.
