篇一:
A boy found an eagle's egg and he put it in the nest of a prairie chicken. The eagle hatched and thought he was a chicken. He grew up doing what prairie chicken do-scratching at the dirt for food and flying short distances with a noisy fluttering of wings. It was a dreary life. Gradually the eagle grew older and bitter. One day he and his prairie chicken friend saw a beautiful bird soaring on the currents of air, high above the mountains. "Oh, I wish I could fly like that!" said the eagle. The chicken replied, "Don't give it another thought. That's the mighty eagle, the king of all birds-you could never be like him!" And the eagle didn't give it another thought. He went on cackling and complaining about life. He died thinking he was a prairie chicken. My friends, you too were born an eagle. The Creator intended you to be an eagle, so don’t listen to the prairie chickens!

.The old man and the starfish (老人与海星) There was a young man walking down a deserted beach just before dawn. In the distance he saw a frail old man. As he approached the old man, he saw him picking up stranded starfish and throwing them back into the sea. The young man gazed in wonder as the old man again and again threw the small starfish from the sand to the water. He asked, "Old man, why do you spend so much energy doing what seems to be a waste of time?" The old man explained that the stranded starfish would die if left in the morning sun. " But there must be thousands of beached and millions of starfish!" exclaimed the young man. "How can you make any difference?" The old man looked down at the small starfish in his hand and as he threw it into the safety of the sea, he said, "I made a difference to this one."
有一个男人沿着茺凉的海滩欣赏日落时,望见远远的海岸边有一个老人。 当那男人靠近时,他才知道那老人是把海水冲刷上岸的海星,一次一个的逐 一丢回水中。 那男人感到十分疑惑,于是走到那个老人身边问他:「你好!请问你在做什 么呢?」那老人回答:「我把这些海星丢回海里。你看,现在已经退潮了。如 果我不把它们丢回海里,它们就会缺氧而死在这里。」 那男人当然能了解这种情形,但是他仍旧感到疑问:「但是海滩上有成千上 万的海星,而你不可能把它们全丢回海里啊!它们有如天上繁星,更何况在这 么长的海岸线,这样的情形很多,你这样做并不能改变什么的。」 那老人,仍是弯下腰再度拾起另一只海星。当他把海星丢进海中的时候,说: 「这只海星的命运改变了」。 有时候我们会觉得一己之力实在太小了,在整个大环境里或许是没有改变,但 或许这个小改变却改变了小环境的整个生命。
