23、   Almost every Chinese person can recite(背诵) the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work ”. But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.

A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.

24、As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, he was surprised to see that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. It was clear that the elephants could easily break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t run away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

The man was surprised. These animals could at any time break free from their ropes but because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck(困在) right where they were.

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

In December 1903, New York Times questioned the intelligence of the Wright brothers efforts to invent a machine that would fly. But one week later, at Kitty Hawk, the Wright Brothers took their famous flight.

Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

【1】Why do the elephants never try to break away from the ropes?

A. Because they are too young to do it.   B. Because the rope is very strong.
