标题: 大全-A-20 (沒人問過)

20. A young man eager to become a master swordsman journeyed to the home of the greatest teacher of swordsmanship in the kingdom. He asked the teacher, “How quickly can you teach me to be a master swordsman?” The old teacher replied, “It will take ten years.” Unsatisfied, the young man asked, “What if I am willing to work night and day, every day of the year?” the teacher replied, “In that case, it will take twenty years.”

The teacher’s main point is that an important quality of a master swordsman is

(A) humility

(B) willingness to work hard

(D) patience（D）

(E) determination

弱弱地問, 不懂為何是D?

honestly, I would have picked D too.

Patience is what the young man lacks.

i still didn't get the idea of the question,

the young man replied:

"What if I am willing to work night and day, every day of the year?”

does the stentance sounds "lack patience"?

doesn't it mean that he needs to be more patient?
