21、A boatman made his living by sending passengers from one side of the riverbank (河岸)to the other. One day, while he was resting, a businessman came and asked impolitely, “Take me to the other side of the river.”

22、In ancient China, a woman told the best stories. She married an emperor (皇帝). Sadly, one day, this woman became ill and died. Everyone thought the emperor would soon find another favourite among his wives, but the emperor was very sad. He spent more and more time in his garden, and less and less time caring for the needs of his people. Everyone in the kingdom was worried.
One day, a priest (牧师) passed when some children were playing with their dolls. The dolls made dancing shadows on the wall. This gave the priest an idea. He knew the stories the emperor’s wife used to tell. What if he could bring those stories to life?
The priest made a puppet (木偶) out of bits of clay (黏土). He painted the puppet to look somewhat like the emperor’s wife. When the puppet was finished, the priest silently walked into the emperor’s garden, carrying his puppet, a candle and a curtain. He placed the curtain near the emperor’s chair. He placed his candle, his puppet and himself behind the curtain. He waited for the emperor to appear.
The emperor did not even notice the curtain at first. The dancing shadow drew his eyes. As the priest moved the puppet behind the curtain, he told wonderful stories as the emperor’s wife. It seemed as if his wife had been spending time with him. The emperor was no longer sad. At the end of each busy day, the emperor went into his garden to visit his shadow wife and hear her stories once again. That is how shadow puppets first began.

24、 Have you ever intended to be fully absorbed in your work but found yourself distracted (走神) by e-mail, the Internet and other things throughout the day? According to the survey made by a famous university in the USA, most people have the experience.
“People often l【1】their concentration when they are bored, of course, but also when they are engaged in challenging tasks,” says Peter Bregman, the head of the survey. “They sometimes have a feeling to e【2】 from what’s difficult or boring, so they jump out,” he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain’s emotional center. Any strong emotion-quarrels with colleagues, problems at home -can i【3】our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.
Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the f【4】, “Stop and listen to some soft music for a few minutes. Find a good friend or a teacher and say out your matter on your mind. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly hold it and breathe out very slowly. This can blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus.”
Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors. “Setting the phone a【5】to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness,” Mr. Bregman says. “You have to inform yourself that you’ve lost focus in order to do something about it.” Starting the day with a to-do list is also important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if it’s overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a s【6】of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. “Choosing three or four things as your priority (优先) for the day a【7】your brain to settle down and focus,” he says.
