試題詳情
A woodcutter started a new job at a timber（木材）company.The pay and work conditions were quite good.Since the company treated him well，the woodcutter was satisfied with his job and worked as hard as he could.
His boss gave him an axe and showed him where he was supposed to work.On his first day，the woodcutter cut down 18 trees."Congratulations，"his boss said，"Keep going!"
Encouraged by his boss' words，the woodcutter worked even harder the next day，but could only cut down 15 trees.The third day，he tried even harder，but only cut down 10 trees.Day after day，he was cutting down fewer and fewer trees.
"I must be losing my strength，"the woodcutter thought.He went to his boss and apologized，saying that he could not understand what was going on.
"When was the last time you sharpened your axe？"his boss asked.
"Sharpen？I have no time to sharpen my axe.I have been very busy trying to cut down trees."Our lives are like that.We sometimes get so busy that we don't take time to sharpen our"axe".
In today's world，it seems that everyone is busier than ever，but also less happy than ever.
Why is this？There's nothing wrong with activity and hard work.Probably it is because we have forgotten how to stay"sharp".We have forgotten to continuously improve our skills，so we lose our efficiency（效率）.Then we leave ourselves in a busy state and become stressed.We will feel less happy.So remember，always take the time to sharpen your"axe".

1．I got angry quite easily and was not good at communicating with others.Slowly，most of the people around me tried to keep away from me.
One day，as I was getting ready for school，my busy mother handed me a vest（背心）.When I saw it，I knew that was my father's—I was taller and stronger than my father.So as I put on the vest，I felt as if I wasn't able to breathe!The feeling of anger was rising in my heart.My mother said sorry with a smile，but I was so angry that I let out a shout.Soon，I pulled the vest off my chest（胸口）—so wildly that I made a hole in it.Then I put on my own vest and rushed out before she could stop me.
Later，my mother shared these with my father.Instead of saying he would scold（訓(xùn)斥） me，my father just asked my mother to mend（縫補(bǔ)） the vest.Then he wore it to work as usual.
When my mother told me about my father's action，I sat alone and thought a lot .Just imagining that he was wearing that broken vest in his office the whole day made me feel so terrible.But I had to say，my father did set a great example for me.That night I thought a lot.I promised myself that I would never let anger control my mind any longer.
Of course，there are times when I get angry.However，whenever that happens，I will try to remember my father's vest.
