明朝时分有位叫朱由校的皇帝，传闻他心灵手巧，长于制造木器。不过也正因为他忙于玩乐，疏于朝政，把大明朝搞的摇摇欲坠。对待前史咱们要脚结壮地，不过对待雅思口语考官，咱们就怎么便利怎么来吧。故事可以根据该王朝该皇帝，不过中心的进程和结局，咱们就会说啥就说啥。所以以下作业，可以有许多改编之处，请前史专家们勿喷。

I’d like to share a story about a Chinese emperor. My history teacher told me this story.

It happened in Ming Dynasty. The emperor at that time was really into carpentry and handicrafts. And he was pretty good at making those artworks. The sculptures he made were delicate. Some of them are about beauties, and others about natural landscape. He even held exhibitions in his palace and let those officials comment on his work. Obviously, no one dared to say anything bad about it, all he heard was compliments, so he was really confident in himself. And one day, he even held a nationwide competition about carpentry. The winner would get a lifetime supply of money and a high position in the government.

People found this whole thing ridiculous, especially when the country was constantly at war and there were natural disasters like flood or earthquake all year round. How could this emperor have so much spare time to hold such an inappropriate competition? He was supposed to devote all of his time and energy to defending his country and rescuing people who are in danger.

So finally, people couldn’t stand it anymore, and a revolt broke out, a year later, the emperor got overthrown.

假定标题不是让咱们说具体的故事，而是说前史时期，咱们可以把最初结束变一下：

I’d like to talk about Ming Dynasty. This period of time is really popular in our history books, ‘cause lots of fun stuff happened at that time. To me, the most hilarious, but also the saddest part of this Dynasty was its emperor, who’s the most ridiculous and irresponsible emperor I’ve ever known.

He basically spent all his waking hours in his own ‘studio’, making his works of art. He never cared about his people. So Ming Dynasty didn’t last for long.

What happened in that dynasty has become a lesson for national leaders in modern society.
