Jimmy spent most of his time in the bedroom when he was in university. With his aunt’s help, the young man found a job in a park after his graduation. There’re all kinds of flowers in the gardens and he has to look after them. He thinks it’s easy and often stays in bed.
One morning the head of the park found some of the flowers were dead. He called Jimmy there and asked him the reason. The young man studied for a long time but couldn’t answer. Just at that moment an old gardener passed by and the head asked him for help. The old man studied it for a while and said,” A mole(鼹鼠)is eating their roots(根).”
“I don’t think it has something to do with the dead flowers,” said the young man, “People appreciate(欣赏)not the roots, but the flowers!”

Young Jimmy, aged seven, spent all his free time with a pencil, drawing the world as he saw it.
When his mother took him to a park, he did not want to play with the other children. All he wanted to do was drawing. His father was quite worried.
“I don' t want Jimmy to spend his whole life drawing, ” he said .
“Why not?” his mother argued (争论) . “Some people do. Think about all the famous artists (画家) . Rembrandt, Gaugin, Van Gogh. Their main (主要的) interest in life was their art.”
“Huh!”Jimmy's father said. “They had talent (天才). Jimmy just draws. ”
“He's young yet,” his mother argued. “He'll get better. Anyway (不管怎样) , I think he' s already showing a lot of ability (能力).”
“If he's so good, ”his father said, “maybe we' d better find him a teacher. Then he'll learn how to draw.”
A week later, Jimmy had his first lesson with his art teacher.
“Now Jimmy, ” the art teacher said, “I want you to draw a picture of someone important to you. ”
Jimmy began to draw very carefully, making sure every line was exactly (恰好) where he wanted it.
“What are you drawing a picture of?”the art teacher asked.
“God, ” Jimmy said.

“They will when I've finished, ” Jimmy answered.
