impatient. He was always in a hurry. He rushed through breakfast. He rushed through lunch. He
rushed through his work. He wanted to be first in every thing. He didnt worry about being careful in
his work. He just wanted to finish it quickly.
One day, Liu was in the village. Some farmers were talking about their rice.
My rice is doing very well, said one farmer. It is almost three inches high.
My rice is already three inches high, said another farmer.
Liu hurried home. He measured his rice. The plants were strong and healthy. But they were
only two inches high. Liu decided to hurry his plants along. He
pulled each plant up from the ground until it was over three inches high. Now my rice is higher
than anyones. he thought. Tomorrow it will be even higher”
