It is common to hear people saying:“This kid was born to do this. ”Are people indeed born with talents? Can
anyone be taught how to gain certain skills?
On the one hand, it is thought that each one of us has a specific(特殊的) talent that we were born with. There
are children who are very g ____51____ at music or sports even from their young age when they were not taught
the skill at all. Moreover, there are many children who have managed to develop their skills on their own w
____52____ any help from experts(专家). This is actually what impresses people and make them b ____53____
that there are people who have born with specific talents. However, that does not mean that experts and teachers are
not important. They help d ____54____ these talents in children and help them improve their skills.
On the other hand, some others argue that everyone can become a good musician or athlete if they are taught
by good teachers. What is needed is to be r ____55____ keen on learning and willing to try hard to achieve your
goals. We’ve seen examples like this: A child didn’t seem to be able to be a musician, but after a lot of p
____56____ and lessons, he finally succeeded. Everyone can be what they want to be t ____57____ the right and
professional training.
All in all, there are talented children, but without proper training, no one can improve their skills to achieve
excellence.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答问题)
Once upon a time, there were four seeds who were good friends. The wind took them into the air and they
finally landed on an open space in a jungle. There they remained hidden in the ground, hoping they would be able
to grow up and become beautiful trees.
But when the first seed began germinating (发芽), they realized that it wouldn’t be such an easy task. In that
area, there lived a group of monkeys, and the smallest ones would amuse themselves by throwing bananas at any
plant that was starting to grow.
They threw so many bananas at the first seed that it was almost split (分裂) in two. And when it told the other
seeds what had happened, they all agreed it would be better to wait for that group of monkeys to move on before
they tried to grow.
Then, the first seed thought she should at least attempt (尝试) it. And when she tried, she was pelted with

bananas, and was left folded over. The other seeds told her to stop trying, but that little seed was so determined to
become a tree that she tried again and again.
So, for days, weeks and months, the little plant was attacked by the monkeys, and she was always doubled
over (在腰部弯曲).
And then, one day, she didn’t double over. She was hit by one banana after another, but none of them
managed to make her bend. She had taken so many blows, and been doubled over so many times, that she was full
of hard knots and scars. They helped her grow stronger, and finally, it could withdraw (承受) the impact of a
banana. And the brave seed was already so well developed that the little monkeys couldn’t uproot her from the
ground, either. So there she stayed, growing, growing and growing.
Thanks to the strength of her trunk, she could continue to overcome all difficulties, until she became the most
majestic tree in the jungle. Meanwhile, her friends remained hidden in the ground. They were still hoping that
those horrible monkeys would one day lose interest in throwing bananas at them. They never realized that those
animals were strengthening them by throwing bananas at them. This would prepare the seeds for all the problems
they would meet in their lives.
