     阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150 词的英语短文。

                                        The elephant and the fly

     A disciple(信徒), who was disturbed by the fact that his mind was in constant unrest, asked his

teacher, "Why are most people’s minds restless? What can one do to still the mind?” The teacher

looked at the disciple, smiled and told him a story:

     An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly came,flying and buzzing

(嗡嗡叫) near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again, and

the elephant waved it away once more.

     This was repeated several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and

noisy? Why can’t you stay for a while in one place? ”

     The fly answered, “I am attracted to whatever I see, hear or smell. My five senses pull me constantly

in all directions and I cannot resist them.What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still?”

     The elephant stopped eating and said, “My five senses do not rule my attention. Whatever I do, I

get immersed in it. Now that I am eating, I am completely absorbed in eating. In this way I can enjoy

my food and chew it better. I rule and control my attention, and not the other way around.”  

     Upon hearing these words, a smile appeared on the disciple’s face, “I understand! If my five senses

are in control of my mind and attention, then my mind is in constant unrest. If I am in charge of my five

senses and attention, then my mind becomes calm.”
