一篇有哲理的英语小故事！适合高一学生。

Nowadays, more and more young people are becoming too proud and over-confident. They think they can do everything. So they simply ignore their old parents, and believe that their parents’ experienced thoughts are out of date. Actually I used to be one of them, but after hearing a story told by my father, I changed my mind completely. Now I would like to share it with all of you. Once, there’s a young man who look down on the old. He always thought that the old were just nuisances in your busy life, a useless life that was going to wither. He also did this to his father. One day, the father and the son happened to meet each other in the grove. The son suggested that they should take a walk together.As they walked, a beautiful garden came into their sight. The son pointed to one of the prettiest flower and said, ‘we young people are like this fragrant flower, so healthy, so vigorous, and full of spirit. What about you oldsters? Just like the falling leaves from a dying tree.’ Hearing this, the father smiled butsaid nothing. They continued the walking in silence.when they passed a grocery, the father stopped and went in, he bought a walnut and show it to his son, slow and gracious, he said, ‘we old are like this walnut. We’ve experienced many hard events in life.So we built up such a firm shell, and at the same time we also built up a pure inner world. Every fruit is so full-grown.’ ‘but every fruit wasborn by flower.’ Refuted the son. ‘yes, but not every flower can bear fruit….’ From the on, I always keep this story in my mind. It has taught me a lot. We should try to be a flower that can bear fruit.we alsohave to know that our parents aren’t nuisances, useless lives or falling leaves but are experienced walnuts, masterpiece of nature. They are the ones we should appreciate forever.
