选项
答案 The saying that "The chain tends to break at its most vulnerable link and water flows out of the bucket at its shortest board" vividly and impressively indicates the philosophy that overall quality is determined by weaknesses rather than strengths. This philosophy should always be borne in mind by government officials in a country where there is a sharp gap between the rich and the poor, for the latter, like the shortest board of a bucket, determines the overall level of a country’s development. If poor people’s living standard remains low, they are likely to become the vulnerable link of a chain, posing potential threat to social stability. In view of the gap between the rich and the poor that may act as one of the shortest boards delaying China’s development and social stability, I hope that the government would find inspiration from the above-mentioned philosophy and attach more importance to the poor, so as to better promote social progress and build a more harmonious society.
