Once there was a man
travelling in a faraway village. As he was passing
the elephants, he
suddenly stopped.
He16
．
that these
huge elephants were being held by only a small
rope (
绳
索
) tied to
their front leg. No chains
(
锁链
), no cages
(
笼子
). It was clear that the
elephants
could, at any time, break
away from their ropes but for
some17
．
, they
did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and
asked why these animals just stood there and
didn’t try to get
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 18
．
, they still believe
they
cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold
them, so they never try to break free.”
How could it be? These animals could at
any time break free from their ropes. But because
they always stuck right where they
were, they 19
．
they couldn’t.
Just like the elephants, how many of us
go through life believing that we cannot do
something, just because we failed at it
once before?
Failing is part of
learning. We should 20
．
give up the struggle
(
挣扎
) in life.

Everyday cars kill or hurt many people

the trouble to

the green lights and simply cross
the roads against the light against the

。
Many
people think accidents often happen in busy roads
in large cities, but this is not
always
true.
44
,
Tokyo is one of the world’s largest cities and
probably one of the
busiest cities.
However, there are
45
accidents to pedestrians.
The reason is that the
police there are
very strict (
严格的
) and pedestrians are very careful.
Pedestrians never cross
against a red
light and they
46
follow the rules.
Do you
know alcohol (
酒精
) is
another main cause of traffic accidents? It delays
（
推迟、
延期）
people's response. Those who have
drunk alcohol are slow in making decisions. They
need a few more seconds to react (

). Alcohol
drinking is especially dangerous for motor
car drivers. It is not only drivers who
may have accidents after drinking, drunken
pedestrians
might put their lives in
danger as well

Andre McDonnell is an
ordinary American. But he spends all his spare
time handing out
free shoes to the
homeless. This 40-year-old man has given away over
5,000 pairs of shoes in
less than three
years.
Andre’s
i
47
．
is very simple: he collected new or
gently used sneakers (
篮球鞋
)
through
donations
(
捐赠
). And if they are d
48
．
, he will
clean them first by himself. Once they are
cleaned, Andre will hand out the shoes
to the homeless.
It all s
49
．
three years
ago, during a basketball game that Andre was
playing with his
friends. “I saw a
homeless gu
y with no shoes on, so I
left the ballgame. Then I took off my
shoes and gave them to him. And he took
them h 50
．
with a
smile on his face,” Andre said, “As
I
walked away, I felt the stone under my own feet.
Then I r 51
．
that
there was something more
that
I could do.”
He
then said, “I have always been the kind of person.
For example, if I see homeless
people
and they say they’re hungry, I won’t give them
money. I
52
．
, I will take them to a
restaurant and feed them,” he added,
“The best feeling I get is to s
ee
homeless people in the
shoes I gave
them. And it may just make their walking in life a
bit easier.”

Kyra Komac, 28 years old, now has 25
furniture stores all over the country. The new
store,
in London's Camden High Street,
takes her back to where it all started. She tells
us about how
the business began.
When I was little, my mother began
selling flowers in Camden Market. She couldn't
leave
me at home on my own, so I had to
go to the market with her.
To begin with, I didn't have to do
anything. I just sat there, and my mum told me
jokes and
stories so I didn't get
bored. When I got older, I gave my mum a hand and
I really enjoyed it.
Then, one year, my
grandma gave me a book for Christmas. It was all
about making
candles and I loved it. I
was 14, and I didn't have to go to the market any
more because mum
could leave me at home
on my own. I spent my free time making candles of
all shapes and sizes.
I made hundreds
of them.
One day, my mother was ill so
I had to go to the market on my own. I decided to
take some
candles with me and see if I
could sell them. They were sold out in twenty
minutes! The next
week, my mum gave me
some money to buy some wax
(
蜡
) to make more candles.
They sold
out really quickly, too.
At the age of
22
，
my uncle lent me some
money and I opened my first shop in Portobello
Road. Since then, I've never looked
back, even in difficulties. In the first store, we
only sold
candles, but now we sell
everything from designer furniture to paintings.
Oh, and candles, of
course. .
