每日晨读丨The bathing boy

One day, Tom is bathing in a river. He doesn’t swim well and will be drown. He calls out loud for help.有一天，汤姆在河里洗澡。他不太会游泳，眼看就要被淹死，他大声呼喊救命。

A man is just passing by. He doesn’t help the boy, but stands by and says to him. “How imprudent you are! It is dangerous to bath in the river.” 有个人正好从旁边经过，他没有帮助小男孩，却是站在旁边对小孩子说道：“你怎么这么草率!在河里洗澡很危险。”

“Oh, yes sir,” cries the boy, “ Please help me out and scold me afterward.”““哦，先生，”小男孩喊叫：“请你还是先把我救起来后再责备我吧。

Counsel without help is useless.只有忠告而不给予帮助是无济于事的。
