55、s words left the blind men in shock because they had no idea what an elephant was.And then they decided,“Even though we will not be able to see it,we can feel it.Lets go.”So,they all went to where the elephant was.They were as excited as the other villagers.Each of them touched it and expressed thei
56、r views:“Hey,the elephant is a pillar(柱子),”said the first man,touching its leg.“Oh,no!It is like a rope,”said the second man,who was touching the tail.“Oh,no!It is like the branch(树枝) of a tree,”said the third man,touching the ivory(象牙) of the elephant.“It is like a big hand fan,”said the fourth man
57、,who was touching its ear.“It is like a huge wall,”said the fifth man,touching the side of the elephant.“It is like a pipe,”said the sixth man,touching the nose of the elephant.They began to argue about what the elephant was like,and each of them thought that he was right.They had been fellow suffer

61、ou dont agree with someone,there may be some truth to what they say.Sometimes we can see that truth and sometimes we cant because they have different opinions.Instead of quarrelling like the blind men,we should realise that they have their own experiences.If we can accept this,we are less likely to argue with others.
