A father and his son went to a kite-flying festival．The son was full of joy when he saw the sky filled with colorful kites．He wanted to fly a kite，too．（1）所以父亲为他买了一个风筝。
   The son started to fly the kite．Soon，his kite was high up in the sky．After a while，he said，"Father，（2）it seems that the string（线） is stopping the kite from flying higher．If we cut it，the kite will be free and fly even higher．Can we cut it？" The father cut the string．The kite started to go higher．（3）这使小男孩很开心。
   But then，slowly，the kite started to come down．And finally it fell to the ground．The son was surprised to see this．He asked his father，"I thought that after cutting the string，the kite would fly higher．Why did it fall down？"
   The father explained，"The string was not stopping the kite from going higher，but was helping it stay in the sky．（4）You helped the kite go up in the right direction by using the string．But when you cut the string，it could no longer support the kite．"
   Sometimes，we may feel like there are certain things that are holding us back（阻碍） and stopping us from growing．（5）But in fact，these might be the things that support us most．
