There was once a king who offered a prize to the artist who would paint the best picture of peace，Many artists   ．The king looked at all the pictures．But there were only two he really liked，and he had to choose    them．

There was a calm lake in one picture．The lake was a perfect mirror and peaceful towering(高  大的)mountains were all around it．Overhead was a blue   with light white clouds All who  saw this picture thought that it was a perfect picture of peace．

The other picture had mountains，too．But they were bare(光秃秃的)and had rough rocks．

Above was a(n)    sky，from Which rain     and in which lightning flashed．Down the side of the mountain a waterfall fell quickly．This did not look peaceful     ．

But when the king looked      ，he saw behind the waterfall a tiny bush    in a crack  (裂缝)in the rock．In the bush a mother bird had built her nest．There，in the middle of the rush of

angry water，sat the mother bird on her nest—in perfect peace．

Which picture do you think won the prize? The king chose the second picture．Do you know   ?

‘‘Because，’’explained the king，‘‘peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise，trouble，or hard work，Peace    to be in the middle of all those things and still be calm in your heart．That is the real meaning of peace．”
