When Hill was nine, his father married his stepmother. His father introduced Hill to his stepmother that he was the worst boy. To Hill's surprise, his stepmother looked at him carefully and told her husband, “You're wrong. He is not the worst boy, but the cleverest and creative boy. Only he doesn't find a place to show himself. ”His stepmother's words warmed his heart, his eyes full of tears. With this, he started building friendship with his stepmother. And this became the drive of his life, making him create 28 successful golden rules, which helped tens of thousands of ordinary people walk on the road to success. Before his stepmother came, no one praised him smart, and his father and neighbors considered him as a bad boy. However, his stepmother's words changed his life.

When Hill was 14 years old, his stepmother bought him a used typewriter and said to him, “I believe you will become a writer. ” Hill accepted his stepmother's gift and expectation, and started writing things to a local newspaper.

Once upon a time, a hippo(河馬) lived in a river next to a big tree.

One day, a bird came and nested(筑巢) in the tree. The songs of the bird filled the hippo with so much envy(羨慕) that he couldn't think of anything else. Every day he would think why he wasn't born to be a bird even though the bird told him many times he was so lucky to be so big and such a good swimmer.

Finally, the hippo made up his mind that he would come out of the river, climb the tree, and start singing. However, when he tried to climb the tree, it__was__very__clear__that__the__hippo__didn't__have__wings,__nor__claws__to__climb__with.

Realizing that he would never climb up the tree, he angrily hit the tree until it came crashing to the ground. Then he stepped onto the leaves of the fallen tree, and began singing.

Unfortunately, hippos can't sing, either. All that came from his mouth were terrible noises, and when the other animals heard this, they all came around to make fun of the hippo.

He was so ashamed by this. He also felt bad about having knocked the tree over. He used all his strength to raise the tree back up again, and look after it until it completely recovered(康復(fù))．

From this experience, the hippo knew it's wrong to do something against his nature.
