Unit 1 Slow and steady wins the race

Janet: Jiamin, are you OK?

Jiamin: I tried to carry all the books. I didn't want to go back to the classroom again.

Xiaoling: Why are you in such a hurry? You are like that silly hare.

Jiamin: Hare? What do you mean?

Xiaoling: You know … the old story about the tortoise and the hare.

Janet: Yes. One day a tortoise and a hare had a race. The hare was sure he would win so he took a rest. He was too proud and careless. The slow but careful tortoise won the race.

Jiamin: Ahh. I understand now. If I want to do something well, I should be careful and patient.

Janet: That's right. Remember, Slow and steaty wins the race.
