THE GROUP OF FROGS ĐÀN ẾCH Story
THE GROUP OF FROGS
As a group of frogs was traveling through the woods, two of them fell intoa deep pit. The other frogs crowded around the pit and saw how deep it was. They told the two frogs that there was no hope left for them.
However, the two frogs decided to ignore what the others were saying. They proceeded to try and jump out of the pit. Despite their efforts, the group of frogs at the top of the pit were still saying that they should just give up. That they would never make it out.
Eventually, one of the frogs took heed to what the others were saying and he gave up, falling down to his death. The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Again, the crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just die.
He jumped even harder and finally made it out. When he got out, the other frogs said, “Did you not hear us?” The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He thought they were encouraging him the entire time.
ĐÀN ẾCH
Trong khi một đàn ếch đang đi ngang qua một cánh rừng thì có hai chú ếch bị rơi xuống một hố sâu. Khi vây quanh cái hố ấy và biết được nó sâu đến nhường nào, chúng đều nói với hai chú ếch rằng chúng không thể sống sót được nữa.
Tuy nhiên, hai chú ếch vẫn bỏ ngoài tai những lời nói ấy và nỗ lực nhảy ra khỏi cái hố đó.
Dù chúng nỗ lực đến đâu, đàn ếch trên miệng hố vẫn không ngừng khuyên chúng phải từ bỏ, rằng chúng không thể thoát ra được.
Cho đến khi, một chú ếch đã để tâm đến những lời nói trên miệng hố mà từ bỏ và mất mạng. Chú ếch còn lại vẫn nỗ lực hết mình để nhảy ra khỏi cái hố sâu đó dù những chú ếch còn lại luôn miệng hét vào nó để nó có thể từ bỏ và chịu đựng một cái chết nhẹ nhàng.
Chú ếch ấy thậm chỉ còn nỗ lực hơn và thành công thoát khỏi cửa tử. Khi thoát ra, những chú ếch khác hỏi: “Cậu không nghe thấy chúng tôi nói gì sao?”
Chú ếch ấy giải thích rằng nó bị điếc và luôn nghĩ rằng chúng đang cổ vũ mình trong suốt thời gian đó.

The next morning, Socrates asked the young man to walk with him towards the river. As they went in the river, the watergot up to their neck. But to the young man’s surprise Socrates ducked him into the water.
The young man struggled to get out of the water, but Socra tes was strong and kept him there until the boy started turning blue. Socrates pulled the man’s head out of the water. The young man gasped and took a deepbreath of air. Socrates asked, ‘What did you want the most when your head was in the water?” The young man replied, “Air.” Socra tes said, “That is the secret to success. When you want success as badly as you wanted the air while you were in the water, then you will get it. There is no other secret.”
BÍ QUYẾT THÀNH CÔNG
Một người đàn ông trẻ tuổi tìm đến một nhà thông thái tên Socrates để hỏi về bí quyết để trở nên thành công. Socrates kiễn nhẫn lắng nghe những câu hỏi của anh ta, sau đó ngài hẹn anh đến gần một bờ sông vào sáng mai để tìm kiếm câu trả lời. Sáng hôm sau, Socrates đưa người đàn ông trẻ về hướng dòng sông, nước sông ngập đến cổ của họ, và Socrates bất ngờ nhấn người anh ta xuống nước.
Người đàn ông trẻ tuổi cố vật lộn để thoát khỏi làn nước, nhưng Socrates lại cực kỳ khỏe nên ngài vẫn nhấn anh ta xuống nước đến khi anh trở nên tái đi. Socrates kéo đầu anh ra khỏi mặt nước, anh ta thở gấp và kéo một hơi dài để lấy không khí. Socra
tes hỏi: “Điều cậu mong muốn nhất là gì khi đầu mình bị nhấn trong nước?” Chàng thanh niên đáp: “Không khí”. Socrates trả lời: ‘Đó chính là bí quyết để thành công. Khi cậu thật sự khao khát sự thành công như cậu muốn có không khí khi bị nhấn chìm trong nước thì cậu sẽ đạt được điều đó. Thật sự không hề có bí quyết nào khác cả.”

THE COLDEST WINTER
It was one of the coldestwinters. Many animals were dying because of the cold. The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together to keep each other warm.

Wisely, they decided to go back to being together. They learned to live with the little wounds caused by the close relationship with their companions in order to receive the warmth of their togetherness. This way they were able to survive.
MÙA ĐÔNG LẠNH GIÁ
Câu chuyện xảy ra ngay thời điểm một trong những mùa đông lạnh lẽo nhất và nhiều sinh vật đã chết bởi cái lạnh. Nhận ra điều này, loài nhím quyết định tập hợp lại để giữ ấm cho nhau. Đây là một cách rất hay để có thể giữ ấm cho nhau trong một mùa đông giá buốt, tuy nhiên gai của chúng có thể làm tổn thương những đứng cạnh nhau.
Một lúc sau, chúng quyết định tách nhau ra, nhưng một vài trong số chúng bắt đầu chết đi vì cái lạnh. Chính vì vậy chúng đã đưa ra quyết định: hoặc chấp nhận sự tổn thương vì bị gai đâm hoặc chấp nhận cái chết. Và chúng đã quyết định tập hợp lại với nhau. Chúng đã học được cách chịu đựng những tổn thương nhỏ gây ra bởi những mối quan hệ thân thuộc để tận hưởng sự ấm áp của tình đoàn kết. Chúng đã có thể tồn tại bằng cách đó.

SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE
Did you know that an eagle can foresee when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?
Instead of hiding, the eagle will fly to some high point and wait for the winds to come.
When the storm hits, it sets its wings. The wind can pick it up and lift it above the storm. While the storm rages below, the eagle soars above it.
The eagle did not escape or hide from the storm instead it uses the storm to lift it higher.
When the storm of life or challengeshit us, we can rise above them and soar like the eagle which ride the winds of the storm. Don’t be afraid of the storms or the challenges in your life. Use it to lift you higher in your life.
BAY LƯỢN NHƯ CÁNH CHIM ĐẠI BÀNG
Bạn có biết rằng một con đại bàng có thể dự đoán trước rất lâu khi một trận bão ập đến?
Thay vì trốn tránh, đại bàng sẽ bay lên những vị trí cao hơn và đợi chờ những cơn gió đến.
Khi cơn bão ập đến, nó dang đôi cánh ra để những cơn gió có thể đến và nâng cánh đại bang lên cao trong cơn bão. Trong khi cơn bão nổi lên dữ dội thì đại bàng có thể bay lượn phía trên nó. Đại bang không hề trốn thoát hay trốn tránh khỏi cơn bão, thay vào đó, nó sử dụng cơn bão để nâng mình lên cao hơn.
Khi bão tố của cuộc đời hay những thách thức xảy đến, chúng ta có thể nâng chúng lên và bay cao như cánh chim đại bang trong cơn giông bão. Đừng sợ hãi cơn bão hay thách thức của cuộc sống. Hãy tận dụng nó để nâng cao cuộc sống của bản thân.

DO NOT GET TOO GREEDY
It was an incredibly hot day and a lion was feeling very hungry.
He crawled out of his den and searched here and there, but he could only find a small hare. He caught the hare, but with some hesitation as he knew the hare wouldn’t fill him up.
As the lion was about to kill the hare, he spotted a deer coming his way and thought, ‘Instead of eating this small hare, let me eat that big deer.’
So he let the hare go and went after the deer, but it vanished in the forest. The lion now had nothing to eat as the hare was also long gone.”
LÒNG THAM
Câu chuyện xảy ra vào một ngày nóng bức và một chú sư tử đang rất đói.
Nó trườn ra khỏi hang và tìm kiếm con mồi, nhưng nó chỉ có thể tìm được một con thỏ rừng bé nhỏ. Nó tóm lấy con thỏ nhưng vẫn lưỡng lự vì biết rằng con thỏ này không thể lấp đầy bao tử của mình được.
Khi nó định xử lý chú thỏ tội nghiệp, nó lại để mắt đến một con hươu đang đi đến và nghĩ: “Thay vì ăn con thỏ rừng này, ta sẽ xử lý con hươu to lớn kia.”
Vậy nên nó thả con thỏ đi và bắt đầu đuổi theo con hươu kia, thế nhưng nó lại biến mất hút trong cánh rừng. Giờ đây con sử tử đã không còn gì để ăn khi chú thỏ rừng kia đã chạy đi rất xa.

A LESSON IN GIVING SỰ HI SINH Story
A LESSON IN GIVING
Many years ago, when I worked as a transfusionvolunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little three year old girl who was suffering from a disease. The little girl needed blood from her five-year-old brother, who had
miraculouslysurvived the same disease. The boy had developed the antibodies needed to combat the illness and was the only hope for his sister
The doctor explained the situation to the little brother, and asked if the boy would be willing to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate only for a moment before he took a deep breath and said “ Yes, I will do it if it will save my sister.”
As the transfusion progressed, he lay in bed next to his sister and smiled, seeing the color returning to her cheeks. Then his face grew pale and his smile faded. He looked up at the nurse beside him and asked with a trembling voice, “When will I start to die?”
The young boy had misunderstood the doctor and thought he had to die to save his sick sister.
SỰ HI SINH
Nhiều năm trước đây, khi tôi còn là một tình nguyện viên truyền máu tại một bệnh viện, tôi biết được một bé gái ba tuổi đang phải chống chọi lại một căn bệnh. Cô bé ấy cần được tiếp máu từ cậu anh trai năm tuổi của mình, một người đã vượt qua căn bệnh tương tự một cách diệu kỳ. Cậu bé ấy đã hình thành kháng thể có thể chống chọi lại với căn bạo bệnh và cũng là niềm hy vọng cuối cùng của cô bé.
Bác sĩ đã giúp cậu bé hiểu được hiện trạng và hỏi rằng cậu bé có bằng lòng hiến máu cho em gái của mình hay không. Tôi chỉ thấy cậu bé lưỡng lự trong chốc lát trước khi hít một hơi sâu và quả quyết: “Vâng, cháu sẽ làm nếu điều đó cứu được em gái cháu.”
Sau khi hiến máu, cậu bé nằm ngay giường bên cạnh em gái mình và mỉm cười khi nhìn thấy nét hồng hào trở lại trên đôi má của cô bé. Sau đó gương mặt cậu trở nên xanh xao nụ cười nhạt dần. Cậu bé hỏi cô ý tá ngay bên cạnh với giọng run bật bên: “Khi nào con sẽ chết ạ?”
Cậu bé dường như đã hiểu lầm ý của bác sĩ và nghĩ rằng mình sẽ chết khi cứu sống cô em gái bệnh tật của mình.

TẬN DỤNG NHỮNG BẤT LỢI
Một ngày nọ, một người đàn ông dắt một con lừa đang trên đường đi đến đồi cỏ thì chú lừa bị trượt chân xuống một chiếc hố sâu. Người đàn ông sợ hãi và cố kéo chú lừa của mình lên trên mặt đất. Tuy nhiên, dù ông có nỗ lực đến đâu thì cũng không thể nào cứu được chú lừa của mình nhưng lại không nỡ để nó đói và chết trong những ngày tới được.
Chính vì vậy ông quyết định chôn sống nó và giúp nó được chết một cách nhẹ nhàng nhất. Ông quyết định đổ đất xuống lên con lừa dưới cái hố sâu đó. Khi ông đổ đất, con lừa dường như cảm nhận được sức nặng nên đã lắc mạnh phần đất cát đó và bước lên nó, và mỗi khi đất đá được đổ xuống nó lại lắc mạnh và bước lên. Đến cuối cùng, nó bước lên đến mặt đất và dễ dàng bước đi gặm cỏ trên đồi cỏ xanh mướt.
Chúng ta đừng nên chọn sống chung với những bất lợi. Chỉ cần tận dụng những bất lợi ấy và đứng lên nó cũng như tiếp tục sống bằng những bài học từ chúng. Bất kể những trải nghiệm thất bại nào cũng đều là những bài học hữu ích, chính vì vậy hãy suy nghĩ thật tích cực và bước tiếp đến mục tiêu của chính mình.

UNIT 10
A POUND OF BUTTER MỘT CÂN BƠ Story
A POUND OF BUTTER
There was a farmer who sold a pound of butter to a baker. One day the baker decided to weigh the butter to see if he was getting the right amount, which he wasn’t. Angry about this, he took the farmer to court.
The judge asked the farmer if he was using any measure to weight the butter. The farmer replied, “Honor, I am primitive. I don’t have a proper measure, but I do have a scale.” The judge asked, “Then how do you weigh the butter?” The farmer replied: “Your Honor, long before the baker started buying butter from me, I have been buying a pound loaf of bread from him. Every day when the baker brings the bread, I put it on the scale and give him the same weight in butter. If anyone is to be blamed, it is the baker.”
MỘT CÂN BƠ
Có một người nông dân bán cho một thợ làm bánh một cân bơ. Rồi đến một ngày, người thợ làm bánh quyết định thử cân lại bơ xem có đúng số lượng hay không, nhưng lại không đúng như vậy. Anh ta rất tức giận về điều này nên quyết định kiện người nông dân nọ.
Tại tòa, quan tòa hỏi người nông dân đã sử dụng cách gì để cân bơ. Anh ta đáp: “Thưa tòa, tôi là một người rất lạc hậu. Tôi không có một phương pháp chính xác, nhưng tôi có một công thức.” Quan tòa hỏi: “Vậy cậu đã cân bơ như thế nào?”
Người nông dân trả lời: “Thưa quý tòa, trước đây khi người thợ làm bánh chưa mua bơ của tôi, tôi đã từng mua một cân bánh mì từ ông ấy. Mỗi ngày khi ông ấy giao bánh mì đến, tôi đều cho vào cân và đưa cho ông ấy lượng bơ đúng bằng lượng bánh mì. Nếu có ai đó bị trách phạt trong trường hợp này, thì đó chính là người thợ làm bánh.”
