Who's good at what

One day, the monkey and the giraffe for "who's skill is big" argued.

The monkey said, "We monkeys are smart and flexible, each is an excellent gymnast, others praise who is smart, are said to be 'smart as waiting'."

Giraffe said, "We giraffe is the highest animal on land, standing high to see far, detecting the situation in the distance, searching for lost small animals, detecting the weather are our work."

The monkey said, "What's the use of being tall? I can climb to the top of a big tree, much taller than you."

The giraffe said, "You can climb higher than the tree is high, not you. I have a long neck and long legs, and I can easily walk to the other side of the river, without a boat or a bridge."

Monkeys are not convinced, said: "Our monkey family but out of a Qi Tian Da Sheng!"

The giraffe also said proudly, "So what? Our ancestor, the giraffe family, is known as the 'Rui Beast' Qilin!"

They argued more and more fiercely, and neither of them was convinced.

The elephant happened to pass by and heard the quarrel, understood the story, and volunteered to be the judge.

The monkey and giraffe saw someone willing to come forward, thinking that anyway, there is no result from the quarrel, it is better to give others to determine, so that the other side will certainly have to be convinced. So the two asked in unison, "Elephant, tell me, who is the best between us?"

The elephant laughed loudly and said, "If I say that one of you is superior, then the other one will never admit defeat, and then we will have to continue to argue. So I have decided to have a competition to see who is better."

So what should we compare? The monkey proposed to climb the tree faster than who, the giraffe proposed to see farther than who, before they quarrel again, the elephant quickly stopped them to continue to fight, said: "You see the fruit tree over there?"

Monkey and giraffe look in the direction of the elephant, only to see a fruit tree full of large and red fruit, can be tempting, if you pick up a fruit so bite down, to ensure that sweet and delicious, eat a want two, but the fruit tree grows on the other side of the river, want to pick fruit does not seem to be easy.

The elephant explained, "The competition is very simple, who can be the first to pick the fruit, who has the ability!"

When the race began, the monkey and giraffe ran in the direction of the fruit tree and soon arrived at the river. The monkey was in trouble, because the river was very deep and fast, he could not swim across, and if he had to find a bridge, he would have to take a long way around.

Giraffe mocked: "Monkey you are not very powerful, why so shallow can not cross the river?"

With that, the giraffe walked into the river, the river only over his calves, for him to cross the river is as simple as stepping over a puddle. Watching the giraffe soon reached the other side, the monkey was anxious to scratch his ears.

But when the giraffe came to the fruit tree only to find that it is not so easy to win the race, because the fruit tree grows very high, even if the giraffe has a long neck and long legs, but also can not reach even the shortest of the fruit.

At this time the elephant came over, see the monkeys have not crossed the river, as well as the giraffe under the fruit tree, said with a smile: "You two quarrel for half a day, the result of who is not good skills well. Now I still have some things to do, and when I'm done I'll come back to pick the fruit, so that I am the person with the greatest skill!"

When the elephant left, the monkeys and giraffes feel that the elephant is too despised, can not let him pick the fruit to go! So, the giraffe returned to the monkey side, let the monkey ride on their own body, and after crossing the river, then let the monkey climb the tree to pick the fruit. The two of them were eating delicious fruit under the tree while thinking about the outcome of the competition.

The monkey said, "If you hadn't been able to cross the river, Giraffe, we wouldn't have been able to pick the fruit, so it's you who's good at it."

Giraffe said, "Even if we cross the river, we still have to rely on Monkey's ability to climb the tree in order to pick the fruit, so it's still your ability."

Just now, the two people also fought red, but at this time, but mutual humility up, two people can not help but laugh, in the laughter they understand, who have their own strengths and weaknesses, but only to help each other to play the strengths to make up for the weaknesses, in order to solve more difficult problems. So they decided not to fight over whose skills were greater, they had to pick the biggest and reddest fruit and give it to the elephant, who had taught the two to appreciate each other's strengths.
