题文

As I was passing the elephants, I was confused to see these huge animals were held by nothing but a small rope. The rope was tied to their front legs. No chains, no cages. It was        that the elephants could easily break away from the ropes at any time. But the fact was opposite.
I saw a        nearby and asked why these elephants just stood there and made no attempt (尝试) to       . “Well,” he said, “when they were very young and much smaller, we used the same        rope to tie them. At that age, it was enough to hold them. As they       , they are used to believing that they cannot break away. They believe the rope can        hold them, so they never try to break free.”
To my       , these animals could break free from their ropes at any time, but they       . Because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us go        life believing that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before? How many of us have        trying something new because of a limited belief (认知)? Worse, how many of us are being held back by someone else’s limited beliefs?

试题分析:当我正走过大象的时候,我被这些除了一条小绳索没被任何东西所控制的巨大动物所困惑了,这条绳索系在他们的前腿上,没有链子,没有笼子,大象们在任何时候都很容易从绳索中逃脱,但是事实相反他们并没有逃脱。最后我们有多少人一生去相信我们不能做的事情,我们又有多少人由于一限制性的认知避开尝试一些新的东西。
