Ⅳ.Read and choose the best answer.阅读并选择最佳答案。
Once upon a time,some blind men wanted to know what an elephant
looked like. They couldn't see and could only touch it with their hands.
One man felt the leg and said,"An elephant is like a strong pillar(柱子)."
Another touched the tail and disagreed,"No,it's like a thin rope. " A third
man felt the body and said,"You're wrong;it's like a big wall. " The fourth touched the ear and
said with a smile,"It's clearly like a big fan. " The last man touched the tusk(象牙) and shouted
loudly,"None of you are right;it's like a sharp radish(小萝卜)."
They all argued because each thought they knew the truth. At that time,a man who could
see told them,"Stop arguing. Each of you only touched a part of the elephant,so you think the
elephant looks like different things. In fact,it's a very,very big animal with legs,a tail,a body,
ears,and tusks. Only by putting all these parts together is it the real elephant. " The story teaches us
not to judge something by only one part and to listen to others to understand the whole picture.
