Once upon a time, there were two men. One was hard-working and had a lot of  36  and perseverance (毅力), while the other was  37_ and never did any work.

Both men agree to do it, and the competition started.

The hard-working man had been   45_ for 6 hours already, and he was surprised that he still had not   46__  daylight. Thinking it would be just around the corner, he  47_ on running until he finally came back to where he started, 24 hours  48 _. Upon arriving, he saw the lazy man seated there, smiling and waiting for him, holding the  49  he earned.

The hard-working man was   50  how this lazy man could earn it—he hadn't done anything at all! Then the lazy man said," You are  51  a persevering and patient man, but you were running towards the  52  , running after the sun that kept moving away from your_ 53__ whereas I just waited for the sun to come to me. You were lucky. If I had decided to  54  you and not to tell you, you would be continuing this pursuit (追赶_{高@考☆资&源*网}) till your death."
