One day a father and a son went to a kite festival. The son became very happy seeing the1filled with colorful kites. He asked his father to get him a kite and string(线)so that he could2one.
Soon the son's kite reached high. After a while, he said, "It seems that the string is3the kite from flying higher. If we4it, it will be free and go even higher. Can we break it?" Father agreed. The kite started to go a little higher. That made the son very happy.
But then the kite started to come down5. The son was6. He thought the kite without its string could fly higher, but instead it fell down. He asked his father what's the7.
Father replied, "In our life, we often think some things are with us and that they stop us from going higher.8, the string didn't stop the kite from going higher, but it helped it stay high when the wind slowed down. When we9the string, it fell down without the support. The string is just like our10, which we live on."
The son knew what the father meant and he also knew what he should do.
