Story Title: Lessons From the Butterfly vídeo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fc8rVDVWu_g Once upon a time, a man found a cocoon of a butterfly. (era uma vez / casulo) One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. (sentou / brigava / através) Until it suddenly stopped making any progress and looked like it was stuck.. . (até / parecia que /preso) So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and cut the remaining part of the cocoon. (pegou / tesoura / cortou / restante) The butterfly then emerged easily, although it had a swollen body and small wrinkled wings..(embora / inchado / enrrugada) The man continued to watch the butterfly, expecting that any minute the wings would enlarge and expand enough to support the body. (a qualquer momento / aumentar / suficiente / sustentar) But that didn’t happen. The butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around. It was never able to fly. (gastou / rastejando) Despite his kindness, the man did not understand one thing... (apesar de / bondade) To prepare itself for flying, once it was out of the cocoon. (vôo / uma vez que) Moral of the story: Our struggles in life develop our strengths. Without struggles, we never grow and never get stronger. (força / ficar mais forte)
