One day, the man saw a cocoon. He saw the cocoon with a tiny opening. 2.這只蝴蝶正嘗試著破繭而出。 He decided to watch how the butterfly would come out of the cocoon. Unluckily, even after several hours, it couldn't come out. It seemed that the butterfly tried its best and could not have any more tries. The man decided to help the butterfly. 3. He got a pair of scissors and broke the cocoon. The butterfly came out without any difficulty!

People were reluctant to work along the Atlantic, it had frequent storms. These storms were cruel, violent and destroyed every building and crop field they touched.

After months of advertising and request refusals, a man came to the farmer for the job. “Do you have any skills or experience to work on a farm like this?” the farmer asked him.

“Well, I may not have enough experience, but I can sleep when the wind blows,” replied the man.

Although the farmer wasn’t sure if the man was the right person for the job, the farmer was too desperate to have someone to help him on the field that he hired him anyway. The man worked well around the farm. The farmer was pretty satisfied with the man.

Then one stormy night, the strong wind blew hard and woke the farmer. The farmer immediately got off his bed and headed towards the quarter where his helper was sleeping.

“Wake up!” the farmer shouted, throwing the soundly asleep man off the bed, “A storm is coming. Tie things down before they get blown away.”

The man sat up and said, “No, sir. I told you I can sleep when the wind blows.”

The farmer turned red with fury after listening to this. He controlled all his will to fire the man because at the moment it was more important to secure his fields and barn than to argue with his helper. The farmer ran out to tie the things up and was surprised by what he saw.

All of the chickens were in the cages, the cows were in the barn, the doors were closed, and the shutters were firmly secured. Everything was tied down so that nothing could be blown away.

The farmer smiled. Now, he understood what the man meant by when he said he could sleep when the wind blew. He went off to bed and slept soundly through the storm.
