He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains(锁链)，no cages. It was clear that the elephants could，at any
2、time，break away from their ropes but for some reason，they did not.He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didnt 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，its enough to hold
3、 them. As they grow up，they still believe they can not break away. They believe the rope can hold them，so they never try to break free.”How could it be?

7、The Elephant Rope.(2)How quickly can you count from one to ten? Do you use ten different words to do it? Can you do it in English，or do you have to use your first language? Do you count on your fingers? Many people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world. But scientists have disc
8、overed that it is not true.People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers. In the United States，people begin counting with their first finger，which they extend or stick out. They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb(拇指)to count to five. The
9、n they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten. In China，people count by using different finger positions. In this way，a Chinese person can easily count to ten on only one hand.Besides ways of finger counting，scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to
10、 numbers. Some languages have only a few words for numbers，and others have no words for numbers. A group of scientists studied aboriginal(土著的)people in Australia. These people dont have hand movements to stand for numbers. They dont even have words for numbers. However，they are still able to underst
11、and different ideas about numbers.In a similar study，researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology discovered that people of the Piraha tribe(部落)in northwestern Brazil dont have words for numbers such as “one” or “three”. They are not able to say “five trees” or “ten trees” but can say
12、“some trees”, “more trees” or “many trees”. Professor Edward Gibson said that most people believe that everyone knows how to count，“But here is a group that does not count. They could learn，but its not useful in their culture，so theyve never picked it up.”Although all humans are able to understand q
13、uantities(数量)，not all languages have numbers and not all people use counting. Number words in a certain language are a result of people needing numbers in their daily lives. Now we know that people have different ideas about numbers and math，too.1.The writer begins with the four questions in order t
