Once there was a man travelling in a faraway village. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He【1】 that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope (绳索) tied to their front leg. No chains (锁链), no cages (笼子). It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some【2】 , they did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away. “Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they 【3】 , they still believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.”

How could it be? These animals could at any time break free from their ropes. But because they always stuck right where they were, they 【4】 they couldn’t.

21、Soon after the start of the Tokyo Paralympics（东京残奥会）, 48-year-old Egyptian table tennis player Ibrahim Hamato received Worldwide（全世界的）attention. He used his feet to serve（发球）and his mouth to hold the bat, which touched lots of people.

In 1973, Hamato was born in a small village in Egypt. At the age of 10, he lost both his arms in a train accident. For Hamato, the most difficult time was the first year after the accident. Later, he slowly accepted the fact and began to try to heal（治愈）himself with exercise.

At that time, only table tennis and football were available（可获得的）in the village. He first tried football. But it was hard for him to keep balance（平衡）without arms. Until he saw someone playing table tennis, he decided to give it a try.

For people without arms, it is not an easy thing to take care of themselves in daily life, let alone（更别说）play table tennis with their mouth. But Hamato did it. After years of practicing, he has taken part in many important matches. In 2013, Hamato won a prize in the African Disabled Championships. At the 2014 World Table Tennis Championships, Hamato took part in the match as a guest. In 2016, he took part in the Paralympic Games for the first time, at the age of 42.

Hamato not only sticks to（坚持）playing table tennis but also tries to help more people like him. After the Rio Paralympics ended, he began teaching two armless boys like him to play table tennis in Egypt. He wanted to use his experience to help them move toward a brighter life.

22、More people are buying tickets over the phone or the Internet for travel and other things. Not only are people doing their shopping electronically, but also many businessmen are giving “electronic tickets” or “e-tickets” to the buyers.

The most common use of electronic tickets today is for air travel. Airlines have surely removed paper tickets by asking more money for them than for electronic tickets. Although some companies offer the choice to buy tickets online, these tickets aren’t electronic. Because anyone can use them to hold the ticket for travel or entrance.

People usually buy electronic tickets online, over the phone or from travel businessmen. A system online or over the phone will tell you that the ticket is electronic. It will ask you to offer some personal information. You’ll receive a confirmation（确认）number showing your buying. You should keep this number.

The system will also tell what you must show at the time of travel or the event. Photo identification（身份证）, such as ID card, confirmation numbers and credit cards（信用卡）will be necessary. Make sure that you have the right ID. On the day of the travel or the visit, you will use it often.
