A group of boys stand around a tree. "What a tall tree!" they say to each other, "It would be
1 to climb to the top!"
The group of boys then decide(决定) to play a game to see
2 will climb to the top first. Their
3 are sitting not far away, looking happily at their children as they play. They are also
4 what will happen.
One of the
5 is an 8-year-old boy named David. He is the shortest child in the group.
6 thinks he will win(赢).
Then the game starts. All of the boys try their best to climb as
7 as they can. All the other boys climb faster than David in the beginning.
8 David is the first to reach top of the tree in the end.
David's mother is proud. She asks him, "David,
9 do you get to top of the tree so quickly?"
"It is easy," David says, "The other children keep looking
10 as they climb. When they know how high they are, they are
11 that they will fall down. But I look only up. When I see how close I am, I don't
12. I keep climbing
13 I reach the top."

15 become true.
