As is vividly depicted in the first cartoon, the tender flower blossoms inside the greenhouse in spite of the gusty wind, driving rain and terrifying lightning. Unfortunately, as soon as it is exposed to the thunderstorm, it soon fades and withers, with its delicate petals washed away. The fact that flowers growing in the greenhouse cannot withstand the test of the storm indicates that too much comfort spoils the child. As the only child excessively cared by the parents, young people are often associated with the flowers. The greenhouse epitomizes parents' doting care which shelter the children from the thunderstorm, in other words, the competitive world. The greenhouse flower is too weak to survive in the wild, where weeds always flourish. In the same way, once young people met with some setbacks, they will feel frustrated and thus lose heart inevitably, which may well lead to tragedy of some kind. Only when a person experiences all sorts of trials and sufferings can he or she survive the blows of storms or misfortunes, and eventually establish himself firmly in the society. As the old saying goes, "Adversity leads to prosperity." Let's get out of the "greenhouse" to see the fascinating world, to mix up with people and get prepared for the fierce competition ahead.
如第一幅圖所示,盡管狂風(fēng)大作、暴雨傾盆、雷電交加,溫室中嬌弱的花朵仍然在綻放。不幸的是,當(dāng)暴雨在雷雨之下后,它迅速凋零,花瓣散落一地。 溫室里的花朵經(jīng)不起風(fēng)雨這一事實(shí)說明過于舒適的環(huán)境會(huì)寵壞孩子。由于父母過度關(guān)懷獨(dú)生子女,人們經(jīng)常把年輕人和花朵聯(lián)系起來。溫室是保護(hù)孩子免收誒與侵害的父母溺愛的縮影。雷雨換句話說就是充滿競爭的世界。溫室里的花朵太柔弱,無法在雜草叢生的野外生存下去。同樣,一旦年輕人面臨挫折,他們將感到沮喪,并不可避免的失去信心,這將導(dǎo)致某種悲劇。 只有當(dāng)一個(gè)人經(jīng)歷了各種磨練和痛苦,才能經(jīng)受風(fēng)雨或不幸的打擊,并最終在社會(huì)上文件立足。如諺語所說:“逆境迎向昌盛。”讓我們走出溫室去經(jīng)歷迷人的世界,與人們?nèi)谇⑾嗵?,并為未來的激烈競爭做好?zhǔn)備。
