1.
William
Henry
Harrison,
the
ninth
President
of
the
United
States, was born in a
small town. As a boy, he was quiet and shy.
In fact, he was so quiet that everyone
thought he was stupid.
Because
of
that,
the
people
of
the
town
liked
to
play
jokes
on
him.
“Here,
William,” one of them would say. “Here is a
nickel(
五美分硬币
),
and
here
is
a
dime
（十美分硬币）
.
Which
one
do
you want?”
He
always chose the nickel, and then they all laughed
at
him.
Finally, his
mother took him
aside and said to him,
“I
know that you are a smart boy, but
sometimes you let people think
you are
not
so smart.
Why
do you
always choose
the
nickels instead
of the dime?
Don't you know that a dime is worth
much more than
a nickel?”
“Certainly, I know it,”
William answered
slowly.
“But
if
I
choose
the
dime,
they
won't
play
the
trick
on
me any more. Then I won’t get any more
nickels.”
