Challenge to think

Hello my dear classmates.

This time I want to challenge you to think on a question related with our life and the way how we sometimes make decisions. I tried to write something like a fable with a lesson. I hope you will like it. Enjoy reading.

Think before taking advice from a stranger


Once upon a time in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, there was live a rich family. They lived in a beautiful and luxurious building.




They had a daughter, Candy and a son, Mauri. The children had a black cat foe a pet. They loved their cat. Candy and Mauri played all day with the cat.
Their parents were very popular PR agents. Mr. and Mrs. Pick always had success with their clients. Unfortunately, their last projects were unsuccessful. They were unhappy.


One day their special customers told Mr. and Mrs. Pick that the black cat at their home brought bad luck. The PR agents decided to throw him out and they did it. The children were very sad and cried a lot but they could not do anything.
One week later, the town had art invasion of mousses. The apartment’s owners have taken a decision to rid the luxury building of mice. Under the guidance of them, the exterminators fumigated the whole building. Everybody was blissful, because they already had safety measures and they were not scared of mousses.

Mr. and Mrs. Pick were very tired. They went to bed early. The same night five mice went into their apartment. Three of them were in the kitchen the other two went to Mr. and Mrs. Pick‘s bedroom. They climbed to on the curtains. The window was close to Mr. Pick’s bedside. While he was sleeping, they jumped onto his face. He woke up very stressful. He felt something was scratching his face. Mr. Pick jumped out of the bed quickly and started to shouted. He saw mousses in the room. He went out in the corridor and saw more of them. He held his head and only yelled. His wife called the door attendant. He came and put the mousses in a mousetrap. The doorman helped them.


Mr. and Mrs. Pick regretted that they threw out the black cat. If the cat was there, he would help them and they never would have a problem with mousses. Then they returned the cat to their children.

The moral of this story is never believe in people who don’t know them well. When they give you advice, think about it before taking action. Think very hard if this tip is good for you. If this family didn’t throw the cat, they would not have had mousses in their apartment. If Mr. and Mrs. Pick thought about it, they would have seen that the cat didn’t disturb them and he was not the reason for their failure.

    I like your article and how you write the story ,it is very interesting.

    yes, noways many people give advice, but what kind of people they are? some of them are care about you and others don't. In addition, some people do not think as you think,so they always advised you in the wrong way to make you feel bad. thus, I think it is important that anyone should be aware of his or her decision when people advice him- her.In addition, anyone must think a lot before take any decision such as in his career,or business, or education, or travel because any unsuccessful decision will influence his life badly. Finally, anyone will have an experience in the life, so he will learned about it.

    In short, Your article is really important for everybody to read it.
