Dont you think theres something to learn from the tortoise?”Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when Im entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”I was shocked, “But the tortoise didnt wish that the hare would fall asleep!”“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”“He didnt have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (坚忍不拔), by pushing on steadily.”Sonny thought a while. “Thats a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadnt happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but hed never have won the race. Thats for sure.”I gave up. Todays children are not like what we used to be. Theyre just hopeless.45.
