Please read the story carefully,then translate the red sentences and tell me what are you thinking about when you read the whole story~Don't be shy,just make your imagination fly in your sky!
    About 1000 years ago, a sage was drawn to a construction site. He watched from the edge of a clearing in the forest as the workmen bent over their individual tasks.
    Finally,his curiosity drove him to one workman at the edge of the site,whom he asked"What are you doing, my good man?" The workman looked up briefly and went back to his work," I'm working", he said curtly.
    Not satisfied with the answer, the sage approached a second workman to ask him the same question. "You can see I'm breaking stones",he replied.
   The sage was always stern and he wasn't leaving without an answer, so he walked over to a third workman with the question." I'm building a temple", replied this workman smilingly.
   The incident opened the sage's eyes, because all three of them were breaking boulders into smaller stones, but in their minds they were not doing the same jobs.

    So we'd better have an actively mind, then have an actively life.
