A group of boys were in front of a rock-climbing cliff. "Why not1the cliff?" they said to each other, "Let's play a game. It will be2to climb up to the top!"
Their mothers wanted to know who could climb to the top first, so they were sitting not far away, looking at their children.
Then3game started. All the boys tried their best to climb up. In a short time, some children were ahead of others because they never stopped. One of the them is an4boy called David. In the end, he was the first boy to reach the top of the cliff.
5surprising it was! Nobody thought David could6the game, because he was the shortest child in the group. When his mother saw this, she7so proud. She asked him, "David, how did you reach the top of the cliff so quickly?"
"It was easy," David said. "8children kept looking down when they climbed. When they knew they were high up on the cliff, they were afraid of falling down.9I only looked up. When I saw l was close to the top, I encouraged10to go higher and higher until 1 reached it."
In our life, if we just keep going without looking back, we can achieve our goals more easily.
