   Some people always look at the negative side. Who is a pessimist 1?


  There was a hunter who bought a bird dog, the only one of its kind in the world that could walk on water.
  He couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw this miracle 2. At the same time, he was very pleased that he could show off his new acquisition 3 to his friends.
  He invited a friend to go duck hunting. After sometime, they shot a few ducks and the man ordered his dog to run and fetch the birds. All day long, the dog ran on water and kept fetching the birds. The owner was expecting a comment or a compliment 4 about this amazing dog, but never got one. As they were returning home, he asked his friend if he had noticed anything unusual about his dog. The friend replied: ”Yes, in fact, I did notice something unusual. Your dog can’t swim.”
  有些人总是从悲观的角度看问题。然后谁才是悲观者呢?
  有个猎人买了一条世界上唯一能够在水上猎鸟的狗。
  当他看到这奇迹时,他简直无法相信自己的眼睛。同时,他也非常高兴自己可以向朋友们炫耀这一新的收获。
  于是他邀请了一个朋友去打野鸭。不一会儿,他们射中了一些野鸭,猎人命令他的狗把野鸭叼回来。一整天,那条狗都不停地在水上奔走,追捕着野鸭。主人一直期待着能够听到朋友对这条让人吃惊的狗作出一些赞美,但他始终没听到一句。他们回家时,猎人问他的朋友,是否注意到他的狗有一些不寻找的地方。他的朋友回答道:“事实上,我的确注意到了一些不正常的地方:你的狗不会游泳。”
