A wise man used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach every morning.
One day, when he was walking along the shore(海岸), he saw a young man moving like a
dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.
As he got closer, he saw that the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.
He called out, “Good morning! What are you doing?” The young man stopped, looked up and replied, “Throwing starfish in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing starfish in the ocean?”
“The sun is up and the tide(潮汐)is going out. And if I don’t throw them in, they’ll die.”
“But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!”
The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked another starfish, and threw it into the sea, and said, “It made a difference for that one.”
There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all been gifted(赋予)
with the ability to make a difference.
We must each find our starfish. And if we throw starfish wisely and well, the world will be better.
1.What was the wise man used to doing every morning?
A.Taking a walk on the shore.
B.Watching the young man dance.
C.Meeting up with the young man.
D.Helping the young man pick up starfish.
2.Why did the young man throw the starfish into the ocean?
A.To have fun.
B.To study starfish.
C.To feed some fish.
D.To save starfish.
3.What can we learn from the story?
A.Each of us should learn to protect starfish.
