    As my friend was passing some elephants，he suddenly stopped．He was confused by the fact that these huge animals were being held by nothing but a small rope．The rope was tied to their front legs． It was       that the elephants could break away from the ropes at any time．But for some         ，they did not．
    My friend saw a trainer nearby and asked why these elephants just stood there and didn't        to get away．
    “Well，” he said，“when they are very           and much smaller，we use the same size rope to tie them．At that age，it's enough to hold them．As they grow up，they are used to         that they cannot break away．They believe the rope can       hold them，so they never try to break free．”
    My friend was amazed．These animals could at any time break free，      because they believed they couldn't，they were stuck right where they were．
    Like the elephants，how many of us go       life hanging onto a belief that we cannot do something，simply because we      at it once before? How many of us are being held back by old，outdated        that no longer serve us?

    Andy was born in China 17 years ago. In 2007, she went to the USA with her family. As a high school student, she has found many differences between Chinese and Americans:
    About money
    Americans like to spend more than they have, so many of them are always in debt(欠债). But Chinese usually spend less than they have, so many of them always have money left in the bank.
    The American kids themselves make their own money. Most Chinese kids always ask their parents for money.
    About education
    Many American students have less homework to do while many Chinese students have much.Many American girls take part in sports, dancing and singing groups while many Chinese girls take part in study groups.
