A complete collection of children's fairy tale scripts: The Wall Clock on the Tower

The tower built on the top of the mountain is full of scenery, attracting many birds to come and play, making a loud chirping sound; some birds simply build nests on the tower, and from time to time, feces fall down, making the tower guards People are so annoying.

In order to scare away the birds, the tower keepers installed a wall clock on the top of the tower.

It really works. The sudden sound of the bell made the birds panic and rush to escape. They didn't know what was going on, but the tower was peaceful for a while.

The wall clock became proud. It discovered that it was so majestic that it could make birds as fearful as tigers. As a result, it became even more energetic. No matter whether it was sunny or rainy day or night, and no matter whether there were birds coming or not, it always kept buzzing aimlessly and refused to stop for a moment.

But not long after, it was surprised to find that the birds flew back again. At first, three or five were hiding in the distance, curiously watching the ringing wall clock; later, they boldly came closer, Seeing that nothing happened, he got used to it, so more birds flew back to play on the top of the tower. Some even landed on the wall clock to rest, and even left their feces unscrupulously.

The wall clock was completely discouraged, and it asked the tower full of grievance: "I worked so hard to make the sound, but the birds took me less and less seriously, and dared to fly to my head to poop. Peeing, what do you mean by this?"

"Who can you blame? It was you who messed up the matter yourself," Tower replied: "You have to know that in everything you do, you must have With clear purpose and pertinence, you ring the bell when it should ring, and you ring when it shouldn’t. When the birds are used to it and regard it as an integral part of a harmonious environment, it rings like this without any incident. , the sound loses its warning effect. This is called going too far, do you understand?”

The wall clock finally understood that the alarm bell must be well-aimed when it rings continuously. From then on, it seized the opportunity and only sounded unexpectedly when the birds came to the tower. Sure enough, it had an immediate effect. Soon after, the tower keepers rarely saw the birds, and the tower became quiet again.
