尧禅让帝位
子曰：“巍巍乎，舜禹之有天下也，而不与焉！”
安居乐业：“安定的生活，愉快的工作。”
流离失所：“到处流浪，没有安身的地方。”
饥寒：“饥饿和寒冷。”
交迫：alternating with pressure and hardship
困苦：“艰难痛苦。”
不堪：“承受不了。”
踊跃：“跳跃，proactive”
This story was about 尧 needing to select someone to rule after him. All of a sudden, a flood came through a very populated river area and he needed someone to stop it. His advisors recommended 鲧, but he failed. He became very old and needed someone to replace him. One of his advisors said his son, but he said his son was too mean and would not make a good emperor. So his advisors recommended 舜，a person who was very kind and smart. 尧put a bunch of tests in front of him, like going into the forest and then coming out in a hurricane, and other things. He succeeded in all of them. 尧 approved of him. He made a good emperor in the end.
