【导语】别人的文字和经验都只是一个开始, 重要的是, 你把你以为好的知识真正运用到你自己的生命中去。(犹太哲学家马丁·布伯)Crab, owl and bat
　　The crab walked sidewise. The owl slept in the day and worked in the night. The bat hung by the feet. They all thought they had bad habits. So they went to a cram school in order to develop good habits. Several years later, the three graduated and each of them got a doctor’s degree. However, they did not get rid of their bad habits. Today they still do the same as before. 【词海拾贝】
