the strong winds blew against the kites a string kept them in control Instead of blowing away with the wind they rose against it to achieve great heights They shook and pulled but the restraining 控制的 string and the cumbersome 笨重的 tail kept them in control facing upward and against the wind As the kites struggled against the string they seemed to say Let me go Let me go I want to be free They rose beautifully even when they fought the restriction of the string Finally one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose 松散的 Free at last it seemed to say Free to fly with the wind Yet freedom 自由 simply
