One day, a small business owner decided to ______ because he'd had enough of the endless work, enough of the lack of payback, enough of the uncomfortable loneliness.
He went into the forest to have one last talk to the wise man he met before. "Wise man," he said. "Can you give me one good reason why I shouldn't give up?"
The answer surprised him. "Look ______ you," the wise man said. "Do you see the fern(蕨類植物) and the bamboo?"
"Yes," the man said.
"When I planted the fern and the bamboo, I took very good care of them. So both of them got enough food and water. They enjoyed ______ in spring and were protected from the storms in autumn. The fern quickly grew from the earth. Its large long leaves soon ______ the forest floor. Yet nothing came from the bamboo seed (種子). ______ I did not give up on the bamboo. In the second year, the fern grew even better than before but nothing came from the bamboo seed. In year three there was still nothing from the bamboo seed. But I would not give up. In year four, again, there was nothing from the bamboo seed. Still I would not give up and I waited. "
"Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout(芽) came out from the earth. Compared to the fern, it was ______ . But day by day the sprout grew bigger. Within six months, the sprout had reached a height of 100 feet. It had spent the five years growing roots(根). Those roots made it strong and gave it what it needed to stay alive."
"Do you know, young man, that all this time you have been struggling, you have been growing? Grow the roots that you need to produce your ______ ."
"Don't compare yourself to others. The bamboo has a different purpose from the fern, but they both make the forest beautiful. Your time will come. You will rise high."
The small business owner thought this was good advice. He left the forest to practise what the wise man had told him.
When it seems like nothing is happening in your life, even with all the work that you're doing, remember that you're probably growing roots, not fruit. Being hard-working and ______ , one day not long from now, you will have a great harvest.

When I began to move to Auckland to study the law, my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India, where we lived. She worried about the shortage of jobs and the cultural differences that I would face.
I came to New Zealand in July 2013. I found the people were very nice and supportive. Soon after I arrived, I realized the importance of getting a part time job to make a living.
Deciding to do this on my own, I spent a whole day going from door to door for a job. However, I received a little or no reply. This became my daily activity after college for a few weeks.
One afternoon, I walked into a building to ask if there were any job chances. The people there were very surprised, and advised me not to continue my job search in that way. As I was about to leave, a secretary in the building came up to me and encouraged me to stay confident. He then offered to take me to the Royal Oak area to search for a job.
Along the way, I realized I had run out of copies of my resume (簡歷). The man stopped at his friend’s office to make me 15 extra copies. He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking. I handed out my resume and went home. The following day, I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job.
It seemed that the world always gives back to you when you need it. And this time, it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing (祝福).
1. The writer moved to Auckland to ______.
A. avoid the job shortage

2.After staying in New Zealand for a short time, the writer realized ______.
A. he needed to find a job to make a living
B. people there were not very friendly

3.What is the story mainly about?
A. How a secretary offered the writer a job.
B. How a secretary turned out to be a real hero.
C. How a stranger helped the writer to get a job.
