9.One day,an old man was walking past a small pool which was just outside the village.There he found a young boy standing in the pool up to his knees.He was bent over,disturbing(搅动)the water with his hands.Then now and again he would put his face in the water and bring it out again.He then moved to another part of the pool and began the same action.
The old man called out to the boy in surprise,"What are you doing?"
"I am looking for myself,"said the boy."My mother told me that if I looked in the pool,I would be able to see my reflection(倒影)."
"Ha ha!"laughed the old man."Come here,"he said to the boy.He sat down by the pool and told the boy to sit down next to him."Sit with me for a little while,"he continued."Keep still.You need patience.Just watch."
The silt(泥沙)that had been disturbed by the boy began to once more settle on the bottom of the pool.Finally,the surface of the pool became still and calm,mirror-like.
"Now look,"said the old man.
The boy looked,and for the very first time in his life,he saw his own face.
"Boy,remember this valuable lesson,"said the old man,"When you are fighting with life's troubles and have forgotten who you are,remember to stop for a while.Then the surface(表面)of the pool of life will become still and you will see your reflection in it."
