A man was really worried about his son who was sixteen years old but had no courage at all. So the father decided to invite a famous boxer (拳击手) to train his child.

An old man said to the boy's father “You should leave your son alone here. I'll make him into a real man within three months. However you can't come to see him during this period. ”

Three months later the boy’s father returned. The old man showed him a boxing match between the child and an experienced boxer.Each time the boxer hit the boy he fell down but at once the boy stood up;and each time a punch (拳打) knocked him down again then the boy stood up again. Several times later the old man asked “What do you think of your child?”

“What a shame!”the boy's father said. “I have never thought he would be so easily knocked down. He needn’t stay here any longer. ”

“I'm sorry that's all you see. Don’t you see that each time he falls down he stands up again instead of crying? That's the kind of courage you wanted him to have. ”
