有一块石头在深山里寂寞地躺了很久，它有一个梦想:有一天能够像鸟儿一样飞上天空。当它把自己的理想告诉同伴时，立刻招来同伴们的嘲笑:“瞧瞧，什么叫心比天高，这就是啊!”“真是异想天开!”
这块石头不去理会同伴们的闲言碎语，依旧怀抱理想等待时机。
有一天，一个叫庄子的人路过这里，它知道这个人有非凡的智慧，就把自己的理想对庄子讲了，庄子说:“我可以帮你实现理想，但你必须先长成一座大山，这可是要吃不少苦的。”石头说:“我不怕吃苦。”于是石头拼命地吸取天地之灵气、自然之精华，承接雨露之惠泽，拼命生长，不知经过了多少年，受了多少风雨的洗礼，它终于长成了一座大山。
于是，庄子招来大鹏以翼击山，天空乌云密布，雷电大作，一时间地动山摇，一声惊天动地的巨响之后，山炸开了，无数石头飞向天空，在飞的一刹那，石头开心地笑了，它终于到飞翔的快乐。但是，不一会儿它就从空中摔下来，仍变成当初的模样，仍落在原来的地方。
庄子问它：“你后悔吗?”“不，我一点儿也不后悔，我长成过一座山，而且我飞翔过!”石头说。

in my life i have met many people who are really worth recalling. but perhaps the most unforgettable person i ever know is my english teacher. what frequently brings back memories of my school teacher is his special qualities. first of all, he gave us the greatest gift a teacher can offer—an awakening of a passion for learning. he not only led us to an appreciation of the beauty and perfection of english language and literature, but also aroused our great interest in explorating something deeper in this field. second, i was attracted by his lively wit. i remember that we students always anticipated his class with great eagerness because his lecture were humorously delivered, never failing to provoke chuckles or loud laughs. although it is nearly two years since i attended his last class, he is the talk of our old classmates, and i know part of him has already stayed in my heart.

一天，有位从新疆来的珠宝商人到一户人家谈生意时，看见案头上压着一块半透明的石头，就想用一块小玉饰换过来，主人没同意。后来又去谈了几次，主人故意把售价提得很高，而且还有附加条件，因而没有成交。
这家的主人心里想：这块不怎么起眼的石头居然有人再三想收购，如果将它整修一新，岂不是会令人更喜爱?于是，就用砂纸把这块半透明的石头郑重其事地打磨了一番，还钻了孔，系上了红丝带，显得圆润高贵。可是过了一年多，这块已打磨光亮的玉石仍然没有人问津，主人百思不解。
后来，那位从新疆返回来的珠宝商又来到这户人家，看见这块打磨过的石头后非常惋惜地说：“这块石头其实是一块很稀罕的宝玉，原有十二个很小的孔，按十二时辰排列，每过一个时辰就会有一个孔变成红色，依次消失，周而复始。因此，这块玉石还是一种计算时间的天然仪器。可是，如今这玉石经打磨后，不仅份量减轻了，而且更重要的是能变色计时的小孔也被磨掉了，更使这块玉石的价值大打折扣。原来至少可卖万元以上，可现在就是一千元也没几个人想要了，因为这块玉石现在不仅太平常了，而且经打磨后容易风化变脆，若干年后会逐渐破碎。”说完，这位识货的新疆人转身便走了。
这个故事的教训是深刻的：一是要有识别能力和求教精神，自作聪明往往会弄巧成拙;二是要朴实自然和物尽其用，外表光亮不等于有实用价值。虽说“玉不磨不成器”，可有的玉一磨反而会变成废石。
