Question

【題目】 One day, when I was a boy, my classmates and I were going to pick berries. Before I was going out of the gate, my father called me back and said, “Harry, I want to tell you one thing. When you find a good bush (灌木), don’t leave it to try to find a better one. The other kids will run about, picking one or two berries here, and one or two there, and getting very few in the end. If you want to get more berries, stick to your bush!”

I went with my classmates and we had a good time. But it was just as my father had said. Once one of my classmates found a good bush, he called to the others, and they would leave their places and run off to see what he had found.

But I remembered my father’s words, and I stuck to my bush. When I had done with one I went to another. When night came, I had a large basketful of nice berries, more than all the others put together. Compared with my classmates, I felt more relaxed. I went home happily that night.

Now I have worked for 6 years, but I never forget the lesson my father taught me. I always stick to my bush. When I had a good place and was getting on well, I wouldn’t leave it and spend days or weeks trying to find a better place. When my friends said, “Come with us, and we will find you something better to do.” I shook my head, and stuck to my bush. Now I’m running a big company. I owe (歸功于) all I have to the lesson my father taught me when he said, “Stick to your bush.”
