Write ten suitable titles for the following tale and a statement to explain what each title means. Developing a focus on different aspects of the tale (i.e. the wizard, the king, and the lock) is crucial to this exercise.
The Royal Wizard
There once lived a king who depended greatly on his wise man. But, through one circumstance and another, he grew to doubt the powers and perceptions of his chosen advisor. So, to test him, he had him tossed into a rather comfortable dungeon with a huge door secured by a combination lock. The king promised that if the wise man could free himself, he would be restored to his former exalted post.
The wise man examined the combination lock and calculated that there were 288,000 possible combinations. He further calculated that, at the rate of trying one combination per minute, working an eight-hour day, he would be free in 600 days at the latest.
He made an elaborate chart to keep track of the combinations he tried, hung up his calendar, and buckled down to business as 599 days passed. Before noon of the last day, he twirled half of his quota of combinations and then had a light lunch.
After lunch, he took down his calendar and returned to his job whistling happily. At 4:59 p.m., he had only one more combination to go, so he placed the rolled-up calendar under his arm and smiling confidently, twisted the final combination into place.
Nothing happened! His mouth hung open in shock. He beat on the lock, but it stood firm. In frustration, he threw himself against the heavy door. Slowly, it swung open. It was then that he found that when he had first been imprisoned, the king had ordered that the cell bolt not be thrown.

Answer 2

Here the titles are not given. You can DO it.

This tale tells us that sometimes we run into some difficulties and we tried so hard to solve this problem but still failed. It's not because we are not industrious, but our method is not on the right track. Maybe if we brainstorm for a while, we can find another smarter resolution is around the corner.
