Colorful creations of different shapes and sizes filled the 36 like beautiful birds flying and dancing. As the strong winds blew strongly against the kites, a 37 kept them in control. 38 blowing away with the wind, they arose against it to 39 great heights. They shook and 40 , but the restraining (约束) string kept them in tow (受支配), facing and against the wind. As the kites 42 and trembled against the string, they seemed to say, “Let me go! Let me go! I want to be 43 ! ” They flew beautifully 44 as they fought the control of the string. 45 , one of the kites succeeded in 46 loose. “Free at last,” it seemed to say. “Free to fly with the wind.” Yet freedom from 47 simply put it at the 48 of an unsympathetic wind. It fluttered ungracefully to the ground and 49 in a disordered mass of weeds and the string was against a dead bush. “Free at last” — free to lie 50 in the dirt, to be blown helplessly along the ground, and to settle lifeless against the first obstacle. Only then did the kite realize that the restraining string actually helped it to fly against the wind. How much like kites we sometimes are. Life gives us both trouble and rules to 51 , from which we can grow and gain 52 . Some of us hate the rules 53 much that we never arise to reach the heights we might have obtained. Some of us even break the rules and 54 rise high enough to get off the ground. Let us each rise to the great heights, recognizing that some of the restraints that we may be 55 at are actually the steady force that helps us grow and achieve. 36.
