The Bachelor's Lesson A keen young bachelor had finished his studies at the university. He had completed his studies in the minimum time and was about to start looking for a job. As soon as he had received his diploma, he thought that he was the smartest person in town. "I excel at everything I study," he said, bragging about his knowledge. "I've mastered psychology. I even understand the great theoretical teachings of science, such as relativity." There is nothing that I don't know. Whether it's the movements of celestial objects, like planets and stars, or how to use the power of radioactive substances. I know everything!" But actually, there was something the bachelor did not know. Although his analytic abilities were great, he failed to notice he was missing something very important in his life. One day while walking through town, the bachelor witnessed a collision between two cars. Both drivers appeared to be injured, but the scholar only stood and watched. He thought to himself. "Those idiots should have been more alert. They really must not be very competent!" He never thought the drivers needed help. "Please help me," said the female driver in a weak voice. "Help me, too," said the male driver. "I'm hurt and can't move." Suddenly, the bachelor realized he was the only person in the area near the accident. He quit thinking and ran to help the drivers using his medical knowledge. He carefully helped them out of their vehicles and then called an ambulance. The drivers were saved, and furthermore the bachelor felt the best he had in his entire life. Studying sociology and geology didn't give him this wonderful feeling. It was the act of helping others, not his cognitive skills, that gave him this great feeling. He had learned an important lesson. He learned that intellect isn't everything, being helpful is just as important. "Having only a brain is not enough," he thought. "An integral part of being alive is also having a heart!"

一个精明的年轻单身汉完成了他的大学学业。 他在最短的时间内完成了学业，即将开始找工作。 他一拿到毕业证书，就认为自己是镇上最聪明的人。 “我学什么都很优秀，”他自夸自己的学识。 “我精通心理学。 我甚至理解科学的伟大理论，比如相对论。” 没有我不知道的事。 无论是行星和恒星等天体的运动，还是如何利用放射性物质的能量。 我什么都知道！”但实际上，有一件事单身汉并不知道。 虽然他的分析能力很强，但他没有注意到他错过了生命中非常重要的东西。 一天，单身汉在城里散步时，目睹了两辆车相撞。 两个司机似乎都受了伤，但学者只是站在那里看着。 他心想。“那些白痴应该更警惕才对。 他们一定不是很能干！”他从不认为司机们需要帮助。 “请帮帮我，”女司机用微弱的声音说。 “也帮帮我吧，”男司机说。 “我受伤了，动不了。” 突然，单身汉意识到他是事故附近唯一的人。 他停止了思考，跑去用他的医学知识帮助司机。 他小心翼翼地把他们从车里扶了出来，然后叫了救护车。 司机们得救了，而且单身汉觉得这是他一生中最好的时光。 学习社会学和地质学并没有给他这种美妙的感觉。 这是帮助他人的行为，而不是他的认知能力，给了他这种伟大的感觉。 他学到了重要的一课。 他懂得了智力不是一切，乐于助人同样重要。 “只有脑子是不够的，”他想。 “活着不可或缺的一部分就是拥有一颗心！”
