The doctors in his country could not cure (治愈) him. He was so angry with them that he cut off their heads. One day, two famous doctors from another country came to see him. The king said to them, “If you can cure me and make me happy, I’ll give you a lot of gold.” The first doctor examined(检查) the king. He found nothing wrong with him. “Oh, king, you are very well,” said the doctor. “You only think you are ill and that makes you unhappy. ” The king was very angry when he heard this. He told his soldiers to cut off the doctor’s head. The second doctor knew he had to be careful. “Oh, king, you’ll be all right if you find a happy man and wear his shoes,” he said. The king was satisfied with(对…感到满意) his words and said that the doctor was clever(聪明的). Then he gave the doctor a bag of gold. The king asked hundreds of people if they were always happy.
