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!
Two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an agrument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.
The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, he wrote some words in the sand:" Today my best friend slapped me in the face." They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him. After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote some words on a stone:" Today my best friend saved my life."
The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him ," After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now you write on a stone. Why?" The other friend replied," When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your successes.

在旅途中,他们有异议,一个朋友刮了另一个一巴。
我伤你的时候,你把它写在沙子上,为什么现在你却把它写在石头上呢

We should learn how to conduct ourselves.
I like the last sentence,"A true friend is one who overlooks your failures and tolerates your successes."作者: yy2235 时间: 2010-12-26 20:40
