It was a Sunday morning, and my father saw that I was idle, so he took out a piece of paper and asked me which of the two small circles he drew was bigger.

I took the paper and saw two pictures drawn on it: the first picture is a slightly larger circle with a small circle; The second picture is a big circle plus a small circle.

I took a casual look and said without thinking, "The first big picture, of course!" " I think, I can't see such a simple picture? But dad listened, but he was noncommittal, just smiled mysteriously.

"It's the first big picture!" I insist on my opinion.

"Look again!" Dad's tone is calm, but firm.

I can't help but "plop" in my heart: "Is there anything wrong?" I have always been so confident that I can't help looking at the picture several times. I always feel that it is still the small circle in the first picture.

I was about to speak, but I found my father staring at the picture, and the Gherardini expression made me a little embarrassed.

"Really wrong? ..... "I hesitated, the in the mind is like fifteen buckets to draw water-so anxious.

At this moment, I thought: There must be an unexpected mystery in my dad's simple question, otherwise, how could he turn around me-draw a big circle of different sizes on two small circles, and his expression is so mysterious? Oh, great! Isn't it clear to measure it with a ruler?

So, I took a ruler and measured it carefully, and found that the radii of the two small circles trapped inside were exactly the same! That is to say, the small circle in the two big circles is exactly the same size!

I was shocked! I think I am a picky person, even such a simple picture is wrong! My face suddenly burned and I never dared to look at my father again.

At this time, my father said to me earnestly, "Chu Yuan, you have to understand that you will have an illusion when you look at pictures, and the same is true when you look at people. The key depends on what object you take as a reference or what range you compare. " For example, if you are the first in your class in every exam, you think you are excellent and great. But what if you compare yourself with the students in the whole grade, or even with the students in the same grade in the county? Maybe you're not that outstanding. It should be noted that' there are days behind the scenes, and there are people outside'! "

It suddenly dawned on me that my father raised this question to let me learn to look at myself correctly, not to make myself a frog in the well. Dad, I want to tell you that my son understands what you said and his son will certainly remember what you said!
