It was a normal Monday morning at an assembly(集会).The headmaster was
the students on important things in life and about
ourselves to what is important to us.This is
the story went: An old man lived in a certain part of London.He would wake up every morning and go to the
and would get the train right to Central London,and then sit at the street corner and beg.
He did this every single
for almost 20 years.His house was dirty and a stench(恶臭) came out of the house and it smelled horribly.The neighbors could not stand the
any-more,so they asked the police officers to clear the place.The officers
the door and cleaned the house.There were small bags of
all over the house that he had collected over the years.The police
the money,and soon realized that the old man was a(n)
.They waited outside,expecting to share the good news with him.
When he arrived home that evening,he was
by one of the officers who told him that
there was no need for him to beg any more
he was a rich man now. He said
,went into his house and locked the door.The next morning he woke up
,went to the subway, got into the train,and sat at the street comer and
to beg.
, this old man had no great plans,dreams or anything
for his life.We learn nothing from this story
staying focused on the things we enjoy doing,commitment. We should remain
to our course. Just keep it in mind that commitment
