Handsome as handsome does.Both the children just care most of their appearance,instead of inner beauty,which is virtue.As for us undergraduates,we are the future of our country,we shoulder much burden,what important is to acquire knowledge as much as we can to shape ourselves into a full scholarship,man of noble character.Appearance may be important,but we are not addicted to it no matter how pretty we are or not.
Passage238 The two hundred and thirty passage told us a story about a wolf and a lion.A wolf was roaming by the mountainside at sundown,and he saw his shadow become greatly extended and magnified and thought that he was in such an immense size and extended nearly an acer in length that he should not be afraid of the lion.At this time,a lion fell upon him and killed him.The wolf exclaimed with a too late repentance,that the overestimation of himself was the cause of his destruction. We should live in the moment rather the virtual space.We need a clear head to recognize thinigs especially in the complicated world,at the same time,do not make day dream.What’s more,life is too short to waste,dreams are fulfilled only through action,not through endless planning to take action.
Passage258
The two hundred and fifty-eight passage told us a story aboat a jackdaw and a fox.A half-famished jackow seated himself on a fig-tree,which had produced some fruit out of season,and waited in the hope that the figs would ripen.A fox said to the jackdaw thathe was deceiving himself,he was indulging a hope strong enough to cheat himself,but which will never reward him with enjoyment. Do not wait for one thing not worth waiting for.Learning to give up sometimes can be better than holding fast to.
