Robert was a boy of eight years old. One day, when he was doing cleaning at home, he thought he should move the box out of the house. The box was very heavy. And it was much bigger than he. He tried, but he could not move it. After resting for a short time, the boy started once more, but failed again. He couldn’t even move it a bit. He felt very tired and hopeless.

Just then, his father came home from work and saw his son work hard. He didn’t help Robert. But he asked. “Dear son, have you done your best? And are you doing everything you can?”

“▲”the boy cried.

“ No, you’re not.” his father said quietly. “You did not ask me to help you. Asking for help is not bad. Sometimes, even the strongest of us needs help. It is important to know when to ask for help and understand why you need it. Never be afraid to ask others for help when you’re in trouble.”

Robert nodded(点头)with a big smile.
