Jenny used to get angry when meeting problems.

One day, her father took her to the ________. Then he poured water into two pots and put them on the fire. When the water ________, he put a potato in a pot and tea leaves in the other.

“Why are you doing this?” Jenny asked.

“Just be ________ and wait for fifteen minutes.”

When time was up, Jenny’s father took the potato out and poured the tea into a cup. He asked Jenny, “Have you learned anything from them?”

“No.”

Her father said, “The potato was hard before; now the water has turned it soft. ________, the tea leaves changed the water and created something new.”

Jenny then knew what her father ________. Both objects were boiled, but they reacted differently, just as people could deal with the same situation with different attitudes (态度). Then Jenny decided to change her attitude towards problems.
