读后感：

“我要给你一个教训，连你爸爸的话都靠不住，别人说的话更不必说了。”

故事里头，年轻的爸爸就说了这么一句话。他的这句话解开了我先前的不解与疑惑 --- 为什么他骗儿子说他会在儿子跳下来之前，抱住他？这不禁让我想起刚上中一时，教我英语的老师，Ms Karen Kirk，所跟我们1/2班上的一“课”。

游戏是这样玩的：

YOU HAVE ONLY 2 MINUTES TO COMPLETE THIS

1. Read through all the parts of this exercise before you do anything.
2. Once you start, you will not have much time ? remember this.
3. Write the date in the top left hand corner in the space provided below.
4. Underneath the date, but in the center of the space, write your name in capital letters.
5. On the left side of the paper multiply 25 by 12. Write the answer as “25×12= ”
6. With a ruler, draw a line diagonal from the top left hand of the box, to the bottom right.
7. Stand up and sit down three times.
8. Draw a face in the middle of the page (under your name) Make the mouth look unhappy.
9. Below this write the word FOOL in capital letters.
10. Shout “finished!”
11. Now that you have finished reading all the instructions, ignore instructions 5 ? 10 inclusive. Just do 1, 2, 3, 4, sit with your arms folded for the rest of the time and watch your classmates make fool out of themselves!?

If you ignored instruction 1 and started following the other instructions, I hope you feel foolish and not repeat this mistake of not reading instructions carefully ever again.

Ms Kirk 跟故事里的爸爸可真是用心良苦。


一个为了要让我们学习“Read and Follow Instructions”的重要性，而把同学们耍得好惨；另一个则是希望儿子能学会怎么在既险恶又狡诈的社会应变，生存，而不惜让年幼的儿子摔得一屁股灰，吃了不少苦呢！

现在想想，故事里的爸爸若没教会儿子怎么去信任，怎么去辨认是非，那儿子很有可能会在将来的日子里倍受欺骗，而总是在吃亏。但,我觉得偶尔吃点亏倒也是另一种与众不同的享受吧.

故事里的爸爸告诉了我，“防人之心不可无”，却不能老是处处堤防人。我的爸爸却常教我把“快乐当护身符”。就算真的被骗，上当，吃亏，都应该以笑容对待。人要活得乐观才是。
