Do you remember the story about Tian Ji's Horse Racing？Tian Ji was a general（将军） in the State of Qi，and his friend Sun Bin was 1 . At that time，horse racing was one of the most popular2 for the rich. And Tian Ji often had horse races with others. However，he was very unlucky and 3 won the races. 

One day，Tian Ji lost the race again. He went home feeling 4 . When Sun Bin saw this，he said，"Take me with you next time. I can5 you to win. "A few days later，Sun Bin went to the horse race with Tian Ji. He6 learned how the races worked. Sun Bin said to Tian Ji，"You will be the winner7 you win two of the three races，so I will make a plan to help you. I can8 the winning prize belongs（属于） to us this time. "

For the first race，he decided to use the worst horse against their best. Of course，Tian Ji didn't win. For the9 race，Sun Bin told Tian Ji to send out the best horse against their medium—speed horse. And sure enough，Tian Ji won. For the third race，Tian Ji used his medium— speed horse against their10 . Once again，he won. At last，thanks to Sun Bin's strategic （策略性的） planning，Tian Ji had two wins and succeeded in the race.
