Deep in the mountains, near a village, lived an old man who could carve (雕刻) the most _ elephants out of stones. People from all over the world came to that village to buy the old mans elephants. Museums put his works on _ for everyone to see. One winter a young sculptor came to see the old man. “Please,” he said, “Could you show me how to carve elephants?” “My boy,” said the old man, “I cant show you how to carve elephants. I can only show you how to carve stones.” For many _, he worked hard. Finally, one evening, as bright autumn leaves danced in the wind, the old man said, “Youve _ well, my boy. You can cut and carve and polish (抛光) as well as I do. There is no more for me to teach you.” “ _ there is more for me to learn,” said the young man, who still could not carve elephants. “Let me _ you for one more season.” The young man looked and looked, but all he saw were blocks of stones. “Where are the elephants?” he asked. “Cant you see them?” asked the old man. “They are in the stones. You see, I do not carve elephants. I only carve stones.” “What do you mean?” asked the young man. “I mean that I _ the elephants in the stone. When I can see them well, I carve _ the stone to set the elephants free. Then everyone can see them. Cant you see anything in those three blocks of stones?” The young man looked and looked again. “No,” he said at last, “I see _ in those three. But I see something in that large one you set by the door.” “Are you sure?” asked the old man, _ his head sadly, “There is no elephant in that block of stone.” The young man _ , “I do not see an elephant,” he said. “In that block of stone I see a tiger.” And picking up his _ , the young sculptor went to work to set the tiger free. 1.
