　　Long, long ago, a donkey （驴） fell in a dry well. The animal cried for hours as the farmer tried to think out what to do. Finally, the farmer thought the animal was too old and the well needed to be covered up anyway, so he decided not to try to save the donkey.

　　The farmer invited his neighbors to 1 him. They began to shovel （铲） dirt into the well. The donkey cried harder. Then a few shovelfuls later, he quieted down. The farmer looked 2 the well, and was surprised by what he saw.

　　While every shovelful of dirt hit his 3 , the donkey would shake（抖）it off and take a step up on the new layer （层）of dirt. 4 the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, the donkey would shake it off and take another step up.

　　Soon the donkey stepped up out of the well and ran away, to the 5 of all the neighbors.

　　The 6 we get from this story is that if life shovels some dirt on us, we must get out of the well and not let it cover us. We must learn to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our 7 is a stepping-sone（石头）. We can get out of the deepest well by never 8 !
