I recently started a new job in a small office. There four of us1 a water filter pitcher(净水壶). One of my workmates complained to me that the water tasted "2 "It went on for a few days, and she was surprised why I could drink the water without any3 In fact, I didn't find anything wrong with the water. It tasted just fine to me.
Finally, she found the cause of the problem. The "dirty smell" was actually from her4 . She simply forgot to clean it, and after a while it started5 the water inside. She cleaned her cup carefully, and then drank the water with great satisfaction.
Looking at this, I can't help6 the world we live in. Most of the time we quickly blame(责怪)other people, other things, anything else but we will never think about7 We can hear words like "You're lazy", "You're careless" or "You're the problem" everywhere. The world isn't8 , but I think we should take a step back sometimes and ask ourselves some9 . Can I be better? Am I really nice? Can I help others with kindness?
I want to tell you this: please clean your cup.10 you do so, the water will taste much better, and maybe the surroundings will be much better, too.
