阅读《低头与昂首》一文,回答后面的问题
                                                                                                    低头与昂首
        ①富兰克林被称为美国之父。在谈起成功之道时,他说这一切源于一次拜访。在他年轻的时候,一位老前辈请他到一座低矮的小茅屋中见面。富兰克林来了,他挺起胸膛,大步流星,一进门,“砰”的一声,额头重重地撞在门框上,顿时肿了起来,疼得他哭笑不得。老前辈看到他这副样子,笑了笑说:“很疼吧!可这是你今天最大的收获。一个人要想洞察世事,练达人情,就必须时刻记住低头。”
        ②富兰克林把这次拜访当成一次悟道,他牢牢记住了老前辈的教导,把谦虚列为他一生的生活准则。
        ③要取得成功,首先就要学会低头。这恰如演奏一支高昂的曲子,起首往往是低调的。低头,既是正确认识自己,也是对他人的一种尊重。什么时候都高昂着头,实际上是抬高自己,看低别人。你瞧不起别人,人家干嘛要瞧得起你呢?因此,你再优秀,再有名,也没有人愿意与你合作。
        ④当然,低头并不意味着把自己不当人。低头不应该是流水,越流越低。一支曲子,越唱越低,就会唱不下去。有人把低头理解为唯唯诺诺、忍让一切,理解为逆来顺受、低声下气,这是不正确的。有这样一个故事:有个公司招聘员工,门外排着长长的队伍,应聘者一个接一个进去接受考试。每进去一个,主考官不由分说,凌空劈来一记耳光。主考官问:“这是什么滋味?”捂着脸出来的人都落选了,他们是低头的人。后来有个年轻人进去,主考官同样劈来一记耳光,说:“这是什么滋味?”年轻人定了定神,以同样的速度,同样的力量,给主考官同样一记耳光,说:“就是这个滋味。”出人意料的是,这个年轻人被录用了。
        ⑤富兰克林以低头抵达成功,年轻人却以昂首被录用,这是不是矛盾的呢?
        ⑥不,其实为人处世真正的法则是把自己摆在一个恰当的位置上:在摆放自己处的位置时,我们应该是富兰克林;而在摆放我们自己心的位置时,我们必须是那个年轻人。也就是说,我们应该低头处世,昂首做人。
