From the Other Side

    Lara and Tara are twins．（1） 　　but they are very different in

everything else．For example，hot food is Lara's favorite，and Tara has a sweet choice．

    However，this isn't the problem with the twin girls．They always argued that the opposite one was wrong． （2） 　　，while Tara insisted that mornings were fresh and it was difficult to stay up till midnight．

   （3） 　　．To put an end to their fights，their parents decided to create a small drama．They wanted the girls to understand that they were both correct from their own point of view．Their parents covered the girls'eyes with black ribbons，and brought them to the dining room．（4） 　　Lara was asked to stand on one side of the board and Tara on the other．They couldn't see the other side of it．When the ribbons were taken away，they were surprised to see a huge board between them．

    Now，their father asked Lara，"What's the color of the board？"She replied，"It's black!"（5） 　　．She replied，"It's white!"The two girls began to argue again．While Lara was confident it was black，Tara was sure it was white．Then，they were asked to exchange（交换）their places．They couldn't believe their eyes．Tara，who insisted it was a white board，saw a black one．Similarly，Lara，who argued the board was black，was shocked to see a white one．They understood that each of them was right in her own view．Most of us are like Lara and Tara．We are right most times，but insist that others are wrong!
