問題詳情：

Once upon a time, there lived a young father and his old neighbor. One day the young father paid a visit to his old neighbor. They were standing in the old man’s garden, and talking about children. The young man said, “How strict should parents be with their children？”

The old man pointed to a string（繩子）between a big strong tree and a thin young one. “Please untie（解開）that string,” he said. The young man untied it, and the young tree bent （彎）over to one side. “Now tie it again, please,” said the old man, “But first pull the string tight so that the young tree is straight again.”

The young man did so. Then the old man said, “There, it is the same with children. You must be strict with them, but sometimes you must untie the string to know how they are getting on.
