2b
1. A man saw Yu Gong and his (children / family) when they were working on moving the mountains.
2. He told Yu Gong he could never do it because he was old and (poor / weak).
3. As soon as the man finished (talking / speaking), Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died.
4. Finally, a god was so moved by Yu Gong that he sent (two / three) gods to take the mountains away.
5. This story reminds us that you can never (know / see) what’s possible unless you try to make it happen.
Let me tell you the rest of the story about Yu Gong. Yu Gong and his family began to move some of the earth and stone to the sea. One day, a man saw Yu Gong and his children when they were working on moving the mountains. He told Yu Gong that he could never do it because he was old and weak. As soon as the man finished talking, Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died. His family would live and grow, but the mountains could not get bigger. So Yu Gong and his family kept on digging day after day and year after year. Finally, a god was so moved by Yu Gong that he sent two gods to take the mountains away. This story reminds us that you can never know what’s possible unless you try to make it happen.
