自己的看法
网友传了一个笑话给我：联合国出了一道题目，请全世界的小朋友作答：“对于其他国家粮食短缺的问题，请你谈谈自己的看法。”结果，没有任何一个国家的小朋友会回答这个问题。
因为，非洲小朋友看完题目后不知道什么叫做“粮食”;欧洲小朋友看完题目后不知道什么叫做“短缺”；拉丁小朋友看完题目后不知道什么叫做“请”；美国小朋友看完题目后不知道什么叫做“其他国家”；亚洲小朋友看完题目后不知道什么叫做“自己的看法”。
我看了之后，苦笑了良久。我觉得创造这个笑话的认证真有深度，这确实是一针见血的讽刺：我们确实从小都不知道什么叫做“自己的看法”，多数人总要挣扎很久，糊涂很久，才发现，啊！原来我活的人生“好像不是”我要的人生。
One's point of view
One of my net-friends sent me a joke.The UN had one question for the children from all over the world to answer: Please express your point of view on the grain shortage of other countries.The result is that none of them could reach the answer.
The reason is that ,children from Africa didn't know what was ’grain‘;those from Europe had no idea about ’shortage‘;those from Latin America got puzzled with ’please‘；those from America knew nothing about’ other countries‘；the problem with Asians was their 'your own point of view'.
I smiled bitterly after reading the joke. All the thought in my brain was that the man who creates it was really penetrating.It was a piece of sarcasm really hit the nail on the head. It was definitely true that we had no perspective about 'one's own point of view'at the beginning of childhood .Most of us didn't figure out , it was not the way of life we desired ,until we went through accountless times of struggles and frustration .
