Look at the picture, what do you see? 1. , some people say it’s an old man, while others say it’s a young woman and an old 2. . It is a problem with many answers. Why?
When you look at a problem from different views, you get different answers. Just turn it in your mind 3. bit, and you may see it in a completely new way.
Some people only form an idea in their mind “A problem has only one answer, and all the 4. are wrong. ” Some even laugh at the different answers others come up with. Well, they’re wrong! If people only believed in one answer, we might still think the world is square(方形的)!
What’s one plus one? That’s easy, two! Right? Well, that’s one right answer, but not the only answer. You might think of 11, or some 5. characters like “二” or “十”! What’s a mom plus a dad? You might think of two people, or a man and a woman, or a whole family! So, even the 6. questions can have many answers.
Of course, some problems do only have one answer. If each of the questions in a math test had 7. than one answer, it would be quite a problem for teachers 8. .
Look at things in different ways, face your life with a 9. mind, and you’ll see a completely different world.
After reading my article, if I ask you again: “What do you see in this picture?”, will you still give the same answer now? I’m sure this picture will be 10. to you.
