What can one do to still the mind? ” The teacher looked at the disciple, smiled and told him a story:An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly(苍蝇) came, flying and buzzing(嗡嗡叫) near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again, and the elephant waved it away once more. This was repeated several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and noisy? Why cant you stay for a while in one place? ”The fly answered, “I am attracted to whatever I see, hear or smell. My five senses pull me constantly in all directions and I cannot resist（抵抗） themWhat is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still?”The elephant stopped eating and said, “My five senses do not rule my attention. Whatever I do, I get immersed in it. Now that I am eating, I am completely absorbed（全神贯注的） in eating. In this way I can enjoy my food and chew it better. I rule and control my attention, and not the other way around. ” Upon hearing these words, a smile appeared on the disciples face, “I understand!

If I am in charge of my five senses and attention, then my mind becomes calm. ” 【写作内容】 以约30个词概括短文的内容；然后以约120个词就“专注”这一主题发表你的看法，并包括以下要点：大象和苍蝇的故事给你的启示；讲述你（或你朋友）因为太多干扰而受到影响的经历；你认为怎样才能保持专注、专心。【写作要求】 在作文中可以使用自己亲身的经历或者虚构的故事，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子；作文中不得出现真实的姓名和学校名称。【评分标准】概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，篇章连贯。 Try this:1.
