Once a king got two nice falcons(獵鷹) from his son. He had never seen such beautiful falcons

before. He loved them so much and he ordered the best falconer to train them to fly.

After several months, the king came to see how the training was going on. He found that one

falcon had already been able to fly high in the sky, while the other one was staying on the branch(樹枝) of a tree quietly without moving.

The king called all his falconers together and ordered them to try every way they could to make it fly. But none of them succeeded. One day, while the king was taking a walk in the forest,

an idea came to his mind. He decided to find someone who knew the natural environment well to

solve the problem. Then he sent for a farmer who lived in the forest into his palace to train it at once.

The next morning, the king saw the other falcon flying above in the sky freely. "It is unbelievable!" shouted the king. "How could you make it happen?"

The farmer replied, “It's very easy. I just cut off the branch where the falcon rested.”

It is always the same to humans. We all have "two flying wings in our hearts as well, but we often seem not to notice them and stay where we feel safe and comfortable. We won't realize we can fly so high and freely until the "branch" we are resting on breaks.

1.Where did the king get the falcons?

2.Why did the king ask the farmer to train the falcon?

3.What did the farmer do to make the falcon fly?

4.What do you think of the farmer?

5.To reach high, can we stay where we feel safe and comfortable?

In the 1950s, a female swimming athlete set a goal for herself. She decided to swim across the English Channel before she retired. If she could make it, she would be the first person in the world who did it.

On that day, she jumped into the sea without any hesitation and swam towards the opposite bank.

In the journey, she faced heavy fog, heavy rain and heavy waves. Though she was very tired, she carried on swimming.

But in the end, she gave up. And what she didn't know at the moment she gave up was that the opposite bank was only I mile away.

Later people asked her about the reason. And she said:"The reason why I gave up is that I could not see the destination which I was so close to."

Too many success stories have been lecturing us about courage and persistence(堅(jiān)持). But they never told us where to find courage and persistence.

You can have courage only when you know where your goal is. You can manage to persist only when you know where your goal is, and prepare yourself well mentally(心理上).

Courage and persistence never fall from the sky. They come from weighing between input and output.

A life without goals is like a ship without a compass. It goes nowhere. There is no courage or persistence in a life without goals.

A. being retired

4.Why did the athlete give up? Because ________.
