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 hides(牛皮). He thought it was good not only for himself,but also for other people,and hoped walking would no 1 4      be a terrible thing. But there were not e 5      cattle hides. 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 hides. 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 i 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 easier to change oneself than to change the whole w 10      .  When you change your way of thinking,maybe you’ll find it easier to solve a problem.
