What do rulers and balances tell us?

The ruler and the scale tell us: to be a human being, we must act upright and sit upright. Don't engage in crooked ways. Live with integrity. That means having good moral character. Treat comrades and anyone in a bowl of water, without any bias or bias. This is the most basic principle of being a human being. The ruler and the balance meet together in the laboratory instrument cabinet.

The ruler is simple, refreshing, and looks down upon the scale that always puts a burden on its shoulders. The ruler said: "Although you and I are both responsible for measuring, I dare to measure others because of my integrity. Why should you?"

The scale said confidently: "Because I am fair. You Do you know what’s on the epaulette of the judge’s uniform? Tell you, it’s me. I am a model of impartiality and selflessness!”

Then the ruler and the scale showed off their respective strengths.

The ruler says: "The lengths I measure are always the same."

The balance says: "The weights I weigh are the same."

The ruler said: "The whole length is more than the shortness, I can tell it at a glance."

The scale said: "The balance is missing, I can see it with just a passing glance."

… …

After hearing their quarrel, the cabinet spoke: "Please pause for a moment. You only talk about your strengths, don't you think about your shortcomings?"

< p>The ruler proudly said: "I have no shortcomings!"

The scale proudly said: "I have no shortcomings either!"

The cabinet said: "My eyes are always staring at my own People with advantages cannot see their own shortcomings. Then let me, a bystander, tell you about your shortcomings!"

Zhizhi and Scale said, "I am all ears!"

The cabinet said: "Please forgive me for being blunt. A ruler always likes to use his own standards to measure others; a scale will tend to favor the one who gives more."
