Ex: I have 2 TextFrames:

Contents of TextFame 1  =" Any Text ...."

I want create a TextFame 2  and Content of TextFrame 2 will display the same Contents of TextFame 1  .

If TextFrame 1 edit content, TextFrame 2 will auto change.

How can create a reference Textframe?

Use the content tools to take the content from the first frame and drop it as linked content to the other frame. Editing must be done in the first frame. 

Or export as InCopy story and place it in the other frame. For editing you must check out one instance later, edit it , save and check in. Update at the end all links in the link panel as you would do with any image.
