Long long ago,people didn't wear shoes. There was a king who went to travel far into the countryside. He felt very u 1 and unhappy because there were many stones on the road and they made his feet h 2 a lot.
As soon as he returned to his palace,he a 3 an order that all the roads should be covered with cattle hide (用黃牛皮覆蓋) .He thought it was good not only for himself but also for the other people and hoped w 4 would no longer be a terrible thing. But there were not e 5 cattle hide. They couldn't do that. A servant in the palace said, "Why not take an easier w 6 ? You don't have to cover the roads with cattle hide. What you have to do is just to cover each of your f 7 with a piece of cattle hide."Surprised and pleased,the king changed his m 8 and asked people to do as the clever servant said.
It is said to be the origin (起源) of m 9 shoes. Though it sounds funny and strange,it makes us think. It is much e 10 to change oneself than to change the world. When you change your way of thinking,maybe you'll find it easier to solve a problem.
