“Did you know,young man,that all this time you have been struggling,you have been growing?Grow the roots that you need to produce your fruit.”

　　“Don’t compare yourself to others.All things have different purposes,and different journeys.The bamboo has a different purpose from the fern.Yet they both make the forest beautiful.Your time will come.You will rise high.”

　　The small business owner left the forest.And never went back.

　　If nothing seems like it is happening in your life,despite all the work you’re putting in,remember that you’re probably growing roots not fruit.Stick with it.One day not far from now,there’ll be a great harvest.

　　11.The underlined phrase “throwing in the towel” in Paragraph 1 probably means 　. 

　　A.crying outB.showing off

　　C.giving up D.running away
