As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains(锁链), no cages. It was easy for the elephants, at any time, to get away from the rope. But for some reason, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt (尝试) to get away. "Well," the trainer said, “when they are very young and we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they get used to believing they cannot get away from it. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”
The man was amazed. These animals could break free at any time. However, because they believed they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us spend our life with a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed in it once before?
Failure is part of learning, and we should never give up.

It was sunny yesterday. My classmates and I went to the hills behind our school to play. When we got there, we found a spaceship. There were two little aliens standing next to it. The two aliens were very short, and they had no hair on their heads, but they had two long ears. They were shocked at seeing us. They were also in fear. I smiled at them, and made the body language of hugging. After that, they laughed. Looking at us for awhile, they got on their spaceship and left.
