Country Garden and Me
On the way from Panyu City to Shunde City and approaching the conjunction point of both cities, a big advertisement board of the infamous Country Garden will catch your eyes. And on the board, a lovely girl gently holds a little white pigeon.
She looks at everybody with a sweet smile. Who is this girl? Let me tell you later. Country Garden is located at the Beijao town, Shunde City of Guangdong Province. Ten years ago when my Dad and Mom took me as a baby to Guangzhou, it was a wasteland here. But what does this piece of wasteland look like nowadays? Country Garden has been developed and enlarged rapidly on the ground of this land, and a great number of high-quality houses and apartments have been built up within the garden. Over the past decade, other nine country gardens with various unique designs have been erasing around the great city of Guangzhou. The construction and management of several gardens have engaged the devoted contributions from my Dad and Mom.
Country Garden has grown up together with me, and I am one of the witnesses of its growth and development.
儿子,你怎么这么高了,马上就要超过我了!父亲看着正坐在沙发上吃着零食的儿子,骄傲地说道。那当然了,我长得可快了,哪天,我就要超过家门口的小树。不信,我们就在门前的树上钉个钉子,明年再看看长高了多少。儿子不以然的说。
说干就干,父亲手里握了一把坚硬的小锤子,嘴里叼着一个闪着光芒、尖利的钉子,飞快的向树下走去,让儿子笔直地站在树下。儿子挺胸,抬头,一个立正,表情像一只小雄鸡一样神气十足,还高傲的把头轻轻仰了起来。此时正是金秋,树上的叶子缓缓飘下,落在地上,铺成一层厚厚的金地毯,一阵微风吹乱了儿子的'短发,更加显得不可一世。父亲用一种欣慰而略带狡黠的目光盯着儿子,脸上有一种窃喜的神情。他先用锤子抵在儿子的头上,并与树干相垂直,然后蹲下身子,轻轻把嘴里的钉子取出,如抽烟一般用两根手指夹住按在树干上,最后便用锤子小心翼翼地把钉子钉一半在树干里面,儿子则在一边仔细地看父亲干活。
冬天来了,冬雪覆盖了大地,万物披上了银色的时装,漫长的严冬即将来临了,父亲和儿子一起穿着厚厚实实的衣服,欢快地跑出了家,在这儿蓬松的雪地上奔跑,有时堆雪人,有时打雪仗,玩得不亦乐乎。不知不觉中,春天也如约而至,这个世界流光溢彩,氤氤氲氲。花儿竞相开放,鸟儿在枝头高声歌唱,小河解冻了,万物复苏了,连在冬日里黯然无光的小树也重新焕发出光彩,展现出了新的活力,一切都是那么的美好!
父亲与儿子一起站在树下,欣赏着抽出纸条的小树。父亲突然发现去年钉上去的铁钉,上面已锈迹斑斑。父亲让儿子站在上面去比一比,儿子便得意洋洋地站了上去。本以为早就超过了树上钉子的高度,可谁知,比原来矮了整整一大截,儿子得意的神情瞬间凝固了,努力踮起了脚尖,但还是不能够碰到钉子,便奇怪地问正在一旁哈哈大笑的爸爸:为什么我越长越矮了呢?父亲则笑眯眯地回答道:并不是你变矮了,而是小树长高了,要用发展的眼光看问题,而不能用固定思维看待问题。儿子听了,似懂非懂的点了点头,和爸爸一起回家了。
这句话,给了儿子许多帮助,使他深深地记在了脑海中。
一位父亲有几个孩子,这些孩子时常发生口角。他丝毫没有办法来劝阻他们,只好让他们看看不合群所带来害处的例子。为了达到这个目的,有一天他叫他们替他拿一捆细柴来。当他们把柴带来时,他便先后地将那捆柴放在每一个孩子的手中,吩咐他们弄断这捆柴。他们一个个尽力去试,总是不能成功。
然后他解开那捆柴,一根根地放在他们手里,如此一来,他们便毫不费力地折断了。于是他就告诉他们说:「孩子们!如果你们大家团结一致,互相帮助,你们就像这捆柴一样,不能被你们的敌人折断;但如果你们自行,你们就将和这些散柴一般,不堪一折了。」
