In the small town of Riverbend, the children loved playing a game called Tower (塔) Builders. The goal was simple: stack (叠) wooden blocks as high as possible without letting the tower fall. Every year, the town held a 36 to see which team could build the tallest, strongest tower.
This year, four 37 —Jake, Emma, Leo and Sofia—decided to enter. They were excited but soon realized they had different ideas.
“We should build 38 to make it tall,” Jake said.
“No, we need a strong base (根基) first,” Emma 39.
Leo and Sofia also had their own ideas, and soon, they were arguing rather than building. As a result, their first tower was shaky and fell 40 it got very high. They tried many times, but it didn't work.
Feeling 41, they sat down. “It's too difficult,” Sofia complained.
Just then, Mr. Howard, an old carpenter (木匠), 42. He smiled and said, “A strong tower, like a strong team, needs balance. Everyone has different strengths. Use them 43.”
The friends looked at each other and realized their mistake. They had been working separately rather than as a 44.
This time, they had a discussion and made a plan. Emma was patient and 45 built a strong base. Then, Jake, who was fast, stacked blocks quickly on the base. Leo, with a careful hand, placed the most challenging pieces. And Sofia, who had the best eye, 46 for weak parts. The building work went on smoothly.
Slowly, their tower grew 47 and stronger than before. Other teams watched in amazement. When time was up, their tower was the tallest in the competition!
The judge announced, “The 48 are Jake, Emma, Leo, and Sofia!”
With excitement, the friends 49 and hugged each other. From the competition they learned 50 they could achieve more—by working together and using each other's strengths.
