閱讀理解

When I was seven years old， my family made me an ant farm. First， we put clean sand in a thin glass box. Then we waited for the ants to arrive.

After the ants were in the glass farm， they started to make tunnels （隧道）. I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to do. Each had its own job.

On the fifth day a tragedy happened. I put my face so close to the glass farm that I knocked it over.

All the tunnels fell down. Although the ants remained alive after their earthquake， one by one they began to die. I was scared as I watched them give up building their tunnels to carry the bodies to a corner of the farm.

My mother said that the ants were dying of sadness. They simply could not stand that their tunnels were gone.

Although much time has passed， I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the natural world， but it taught me much more.

Over the years， I came to realize the importance of teamwork. Working together， the ants were able to make an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that they should be admired for their hard word.

But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently： adversity （苦難） is a natural part of life， and must be accepted. Unlike the ants， we cannot give up when we are sad. We have to realize that if a tunnel is gone， we must build another.

Giving up， I say， is not a good choice.
