LESSON 10 AT WORK 專心做事

1.A little play does not harm any one, but does much good.After play, we should be glad to work.

2.I knew a boy who liked a good game very much.He could run, swim, jump, and play ball; and was always merry when out of school.

3.But he knew that time is not all for play; that our minutes, hours, and days are very precious.

4.At the end of his play, he would go home.After he had washed his face and hands, and brushed his hair, he would help his mother, or read in his book, or write upon his slate.

5.He used to say, “One thing at a time.” When he had done with work, he would play; but he did not try to play and to work at the same time.

1.玩樂不會對任何人有壞處，反而會有很多好處。但結束之后，應當快樂地工作。

2.我認識一個非常喜歡玩樂的小男孩。他會跑步、游泳、跳高、打球。放學后總是特別高興。

3.但他知道，時間并不總是用來玩的。每分鐘，每小時，每天都十分珍貴。

4.每次玩完之后，他就回家。先洗臉、洗手、梳頭，然后幫媽媽干活。干完活后看書或在小黑板上寫字。

5.他經常說：“一次專心做一件事。”只有完成作業后，他才去玩。他從不邊學邊玩。
