A man recognized as a genius in business circles was invited as an honor guest to a TV interview.
Everybody was eager to hear a success story from him. He , 1 , only said with a slight smile: "Wouldn't
it be better for me to ask you for 2 (advise) on a certain problem?
Here is the problem he raised:
"People all rushed to the place 3 a gold mine had recently been discovered but they were blocked
by a river 4 (flow) across the only way to it. What would you do if you 5 (be ) among them?"
"Make a roundabout (绕行的) way," someone suggested.
"Swim across," said another.
The genius smiled 6 a word. Then he gave his view: "Why not do 7 else instead of rushing to the
mine? How about buying a boat to do some ferrying (摆渡)?"
The audience was shocked. He explained calmly: "The man could make 8 great amount of money from
the passengers. They were willing to pay for the ferry 9 there was gold on the other bank."
Do what others have not thought to do or something never attempted before - that is the key 10
