It is said that everyone has two boxes hung on our necks. The small box at the front is full of other people's mistakes, while the big one at the back is filled with our own shortcomings(缺点).Most of time, it's easy to find other people's mistakes. It's hard for us to see our mistakes behind us.
A boy called Tony, always looked at the front box to check what was in it. He saw other people's mistakes very quickly. When Ben was impatient with him, he said to Ben, "It's so easy for you to get angry. It is hard to be friends with you."
He told his mother that Michael was dishonest. "Michael takes my things without asking. And he forgets to return them. "Tony himself did not like sharing his things with anyone.
When John was too tired to go hiking with him, he said, "You are such an unfriendly person."
He thought Nick was too proud of his rich parents. But Tony was so proud of himself because he could not see any of his own mistakes!①He could not understand why he didn't get on well with others. Then his mother said to him, "If you change the boxes around, maybe you can find the answer." He did it as his mother said, and his face turned red.②他发现自己并不比其他同学更好.
