三、阅读理解
A father and his son went to a kite festival. The son was full of joy when he saw so many colourful kites. He wanted to fly one, too. The father then bought a kite for him.
The son started to fly the kite. Soon, his kite was high up in the sky. After a while, he said, “Father, it seems that the string (线) is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, the kite will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?” The father then cut the string. The kite started to go higher. This made the little boy happy.
But, slowly, the kite started to come down. Finally it fell to the ground. The son asked, “I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?”
