A wise man was visiting a village with his students. He found a group of family members ________ in anger at each other. He turned to his students and asked: “Why do people shout in anger at each other?”
His students thought for a while, and one of them said: “Because when we lose our calm, we shout.”
“But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can just as well tell him ________ you have to say in a soft manner,” said the wise man.
Students gave some other answers but ________ were any good.
“When two people are angry at each other, their hearts become distanced（疏远的）,” the wise man ______, “ To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The _______ they are, the louder they will have to shout to hear each other and cover that great distance.”
The wise man then gave an _______: “What happens when two people fall in love? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly because their hearts are very _______. When they love each other even more, what happens? They don’t need to talk. They _______ look at each other and that’s all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.”
He looked at his students and said: “________ when you argue, do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance you from others. Or there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the _______ to return.”
