    At the age of 16, Einstein was always busy playing with a group of mischievous (顽皮捣蛋的) kids. He failed his final exam.

One morning, when Einstein was about to go fishing with his friends, his father stopped him and said calmly, "Einstein, you enjoyed playing all day so that you failed your exam. I'm worried about your future."

"What are you worrying about? Jack and Robert also failed, but don't they still get to go fishing?"

"My boy, you can't think like that." his dad said. "There is a fable (寓言故事) that people tell in our hometown, Listen to it now."

"There were two cats playing on the roof (屋顶). One cat carelessly fell down the chimney (烟囱) while holding the other cat. When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, one of the cats had soot (烟灰) on his face, while the other cat's face was clean. Seeing the root – faced cat, the clean cat thought its face must be dirty, so it quickly ran to the riverside and washed its face. The soot- faced cat saw the clean-faced cat and thought its face was also clean, so it just walked on the street proudly as usual."

"Einstein, no one can be you 'mirror (镜子)'. You have to think for yourself. If you just follow others, you will never learn."

Hearing this, Einstein walked back to his room. He decided to study instead of caring about what his friends were doing. This allowed him to be successful.
