    please read the story carefully,then translate the red sentences and tell me what are you thinking about when you read the whole story~Don't be shy,just make your imagination fly in your sky!
  
    In distant places, there was a village. This was a place rich in potatoes. In every harvest season, a lot of potatoes were piled up like mountains. Each household, men and women had been busy sorting potatoes, day and night. In accordance with the provisions of the acquisition, potatoes must be divided into large, medium and small-three levels.
    However, a bachelor in this village always wandered around without doing anything after he received the potatoes. Until the people went to the town to send potatoes, they were shocked to find that the bachelor had divided the potatoes already. It was strange that he went to the town from the potholed country road, never from the royal road.
    Originally, this single man looked lazy. In fact, he was very smart. He went from the potholed country road just to divide the potatoes. After being on a bumpy road, the small potatoes had fallen down, and big potatoes had been on the screen.
   Rough roads and difficult living conditions often can give a strong man full meaning to his own existence.


To strive, to seek, to find and not to yield.       ——Alfred Tennyson
