There are fourblindmen in the same village. Every day, they sit together and talk about interesting things. One day they sit under a big tree and talk about the elephant. All of them don't know what an elephant is like. They want to know about it very much. At this time, a man comes with an elephant. The four blind men want to touch(触摸)it. The man lets them do so. They are very happy.
The first man says, "The elephant is like a wall."
The second man says, "The elephant is like a trunk(树干)."
The third man says, "The elephant is like a rope."
The fourth man says, "The elephant is like a fan (扇子)."
Each of them touches a different part of the elephant. So they have different ideas about it.
