　　One day a man found a cocoon(繭)of a butterfly in the forest．He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly．Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly made its great effort to force its body through that little hole．Then it seemed to stop making any progress．It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no further．

　　So the man decided to help the butterfly．He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come our easily．But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon．
