In this section, there was a truly severe catastrophe happened to Station C which was that there became less and less cheese and all of them disappeared in a sudden. Facing this unexpected situation, little mices and little people performed quite different.

The overconfidence stopped the two little people from keeping alert and lead to the situation that all of them were at a nonplus. This happened just because the difference between their daily lives.

Admittedly, those things above happen over and over again in our daily life. Overconfidence may show us a false impression that we are good enough and we will not be worried about the future anymore so that we may be at a nonplus when we face a change that we are not expecting. I will use one of my own experience to illustrate my perspective. I had a lot of friends when I was in the junior high school which meant that I can spend all of my time with my friends without feeling lonely. Actually, l was so confident that I will never be worried about making friends or spending time with myself. However, things changed quickly in a unexpected way which truly bother me for a long time that there were totally different students in my senior high school class and I was not well-prepared for this situation. Shy as I was, I was not dare to talk to those new classmates so that l can only do everything on my own while I admiringly saw that some other students quickly play well with others. It took a long time for me to change and adapt to the new environment.
Changes can always make a person be at a loss except the well-prepared one, and as essential the confidence is, we should never let it grow without limit, or it will push us into a unexpected situation.
