绕树三匝 何枝可依

“月明星稀，乌鹊南飞。绕树三匝，何枝可依？”这是曹孟德《短歌行》中的诗句。

"The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the black magpies fly south. Three turns around the tree, what branch can we depend on? " This is the verse in Cao mengde's short song line.

我们何不以此自问“何枝可依？”——问自己什么是适合自身的，找准自己的位置，找到自己的归附。

Why don't we ask ourselves "what can we depend on?" ——Ask yourself what is suitable for you, find your position, find your attachment.

老鹰凶猛、健壮，飞翔速度迅猛，从鹫峰顶上俯冲而下，捕获猎物，这是它生存的本领，是它依附的“枝头”。而乌鸦生来弱小，却一味模仿老鹰，自然事倍功半，最后落入牧羊人手中，也是可以料想的。诚然，它的精神是可嘉的，然而它却忘记了考虑自身的优点与弱点。

The eagle is fierce, strong and flying fast. It swoops down from the top of the Eagle Peak to catch prey. This is its ability to survive and its "branch". But the crow was born weak, but blindly imitated the eagle, naturally doing half the work, and finally fell into the hands of the shepherd, which is also predictable. True, its spirit is commendable, but it has forgotten to consider its own strengths and weaknesses.

物犹如此，人亦然。

Things are the same, so are people.

找准自己的位置，找到适合自己依附的“枝头”，生命才能达到极致。

Find your own position, find the "branch" suitable for your attachment, life can reach the acme.

一代先师孔子，初时以建立用“仁”治国的完美社会为志向，周游列国后没有成功，退而办学。他成了很好的老师，弟子遍及天下，也最终成为我国伟大的思想家、教育家。可见，找到自己的“枝头”，生命的价值才能实现。

Confucius, a forerunner of the generation, took the goal of building a perfect society of running a country with benevolence as its goal at the beginning. He did not succeed in traveling around the world and left school. He became a very good teacher, students all over the world, and eventually became a great thinker and educator in China. It can be seen that the value of life can only be realized if we find our own "branches".

一代喜剧大师卓别林，年少时因相貌不佳总被人取笑。后来，在他的喜剧生涯中，这恰恰成为一种优势。他演的无声喜剧电影，达到了“无声胜有声”的境界。我们不能不说，事业的成功，离不开他正确认知自我并发挥了自身优势。

Chaplin, a great comedian, was always teased when he was young because of his bad looks. Later, in his comedy career, it just became an advantage. His silent comedy films have reached the state of "silence is better than sound". We can't help but say that the success of his career depends on his correct understanding of himself and exerting his own advantages.

世界首富比尔?盖茨，本是美国某著名大学的一名学生，然而当他感到大学所教的并不适合自己时，便毅然离开学校，从事电脑研发、设计，终于积累了世界上无人能比的财富。

Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, was a student of a famous university in the United States. However, when he felt that what the university taught was not suitable for him, he resolutely left the university to engage in computer research and development, design, and finally accumulated unparalleled wealth in the world.

社会在发展，然而道理却没有变，找准自己的位置，找到适合自己的“枝头”，生命才能绽放光彩。

The society is developing, but the truth hasn't changed. Only by finding the right position and the right "branch" can life bloom.

乌鸦勇于拼搏、喜爱学习的精神，固然是值得肯定的，然而它不能认清自己，注定是要以失败告终的。“绕树三匝，何枝可依？”绕树三匝，并非枝枝可依。

The crow's courage to fight and love to learn is certainly positive, but it can't recognize itself and is doomed to end in failure. "Three turns around the tree, what branch can I depend on?" Three twists around a tree are not branches.

人不只需要勇于拼搏的精神，更应认清自己，只有二者俱备，才有可能走向成功。

People should not only have the courage to fight, but also recognize themselves. Only when they are both ready, can they succeed.

拥有自知与拼搏，光明就在你的眼前，在努力过后，你会发现——“绕树三匝，此枝可依！”

With self-knowledge and hard work, the light is in front of you. After hard work, you will find: "three turns around the tree, this branch can be relied on!"

Comment

作者引用曹孟德的诗句作为标题并贯串全文，贴切自然，古朴典雅，是构思上的一大亮点；阐发观点时，事理结合，旁征博引，孔子、卓别林、比尔?盖茨等实例涉及古今中外，具有很强的说服力。此外，语言表达简洁晓畅，富有张力，也是此文胜人一筹之处。

The author quotes Cao mengde's verse as the title and runs through the whole text, which is natural and simple and elegant. It is a bright spot in the design. When expounding the point of view, the combination of theory and reasoning, and extensive references, Confucius, Chaplin, Bill Gates and other examples involve ancient and modern China and foreign countries, which is very persuasive. In addition, the language expression is concise, clear and full of tension, which is also one of the advantages of Wensheng.
