                                                If You Make a Mistake, Don"t Worry!
      Yeah, you"ll want to forget about them, but mistakes can be useful. Making a mistake doesn"t mean it"s the end of the world. In real life you have to grow and mature, and with that comes some growing pains.
      You know you should have studied hard but you went out with some friends instead. You know you
should have put the money into the bank for a rainy day instead of spending it on all kinds of things you
didn"t need.
      It"s the growing pains called mistakes that most people make when they are growing up. Face them.
You are going to make them. Learn from them. All of the people you wish to copy, such as all the experts
in your business field, have made mistakes. They"ll continue to make mistakes for all their successes.
      One of the major differences between people like them and the vast majority(大多数)of others is that
they don"t let their mistakes stop them. Instead, they use their mistakes as learning tools.
      At the very least, when you make a mistake, you"ll know what not to do. And you can help others by warning them of the mistakes you"ve made. Don"t let mistakes stop you from doing anything. Learn from
them, don"t hide in a closet. Facing up to your mistakes now and later will mature.
       What mistakes are you making right now? Take a look at anything you might be doing wrong. Take a step back and evaluate your situation, then fix whatever needs to be corrected. Then move forward.
       Always remember your mistakes to remind yourself of what not to do for the future.1. Why does the writer say mistakes can be useful? A. Because you can get some growing pains.            
B. Because experts also make mistakes.
C. Because you can mature by facing and learning from mistakes. 
D. Because next time you know that money shouldn"t be wasted.2. Which statement is true according to the writer?  A. Before you make any mistake, you had better lock the closet in your room.
B. Keep your mistakes in mind in order not to make the same mistakes again in the future. 
C. Don"t go out with some of your friends any more.      
D. Forget your mistakes and move forward.3. When we make any mistake next time, we should do the followings except _       __.   A. Think about the reason why we make the mistake.     
B. Try to correct the mistake. 
C. Tell others not to make the same mistake as you do.    
D. Be careful not to do anything.4. From the text, we can infer that __     ___.A. facing mistakes, some people lose heart      
B. mistakes can be of no use   
C. mistakes can be called growing pains      
D. Put away money when it is rainy

举一反三
完形填空。     Being content with yourself and optimistic about your future is not difficult. Whatever is in the
past is   1  .Learn from it and move on. When you are   2   enough to do this, you will see that
moving ahead is the best definition of living   3  .
     What can you do now? Sure it is   4   for me to tell you to forget the past, 5  it is a whole
   6   to actually do it. Life is a complex set of events, much of which 7 is real, but a large amount
is just your   8  of what really happened.
     Let me   9  with an example. I know not everyone is a football fan, but I am   10 most have
watched at least 11 of a game on TV. Most games and almost all the important games are 12 over
and over on the TV screen right after the game happened.
     When you watched a game, you were 13 of the outcome, saying the player 14 the ball. Then while
watching the instant replay, you realized you were 15 wrong. The player dropped the pass. What you
were certain of never happened.
     In order to 16 on your future, you should try to minimize the effects of your past. Try to find out
how much of the past that you are certain are just 17 . For example, as a teenager, you tried to build
a piece of furniture in your father"s workshop. The piece of furniture looked 18 when you finished, but
it fell apart before you could 19 it to your father. The reality was that the wood you used was faulty. It
was not your building ability. So don"t think yourself to be a 20 carpenter (木匠) and avoid building
anything. Forget the past and move on.

     Do you know what Fear and Faith have in common? Fear believes in a negative future. Faith
believes in a positive future. Both believe in something that has not yet happened. So I ask you,
if neither the positive
nor negative future has happened yet then why not choose to believe in the positive future?
     I believe during these challenging times we have a choice between two roads: the positive road
and the negative road. And our bus can"t be on two roads at the same time. So we have to make a
choice and this choice determines our belief about the future and the attitude and actions we bring to
the present.
     I"m not saying we shouldn"t have any fear. There are times when fear is a gift. A healthy dose(剂量)
of fear causes us to examine our situation and plan for the future. It moves us to smell the cheese and
expect change. When used wisely it allows us to manage risk and make better decisions. Some fear is
good.
      However, what I have observed lately is a supersized, huge dose of fear that is spreading the hearts
and minds of far too many people. This oversized fear is causing leaders and their organizations to either
act unreasonably or to not act at all. They are either hurrying in a million different directions because
of fear.
 In both cases, fear is leading them to take the negative road to failure.
     The answer is the positive road paved (铺满) with faith and a belief that your best days are not
behind you but ahead of you. With this belief you make the right choices and actions today that will
create your positive future tomorrow. You stay calm, focused and committed to your purpose. You
look for ways to save money and cut costs without making unreasonable fear-based decisions that
sacrifice your future success. You identify opportunities in the midst of the challenges and you focus
on solutions instead of problems.
    Your faith and belief in a positive future leads to powerful actions today. The future has not happened
yet and you have a say in what it looks like by the way you think and act. Fear or Faith. The choice is
yours.


1. According to the passage, we can know that ________.
A. Fear and Faith have nothing in common
B. both Fear and Faith trust something in the future
C. neither negative nor positive future will happen
D. people usually choose to believe in the positive future
2. What does the writer mean by saying "our bus can"t be on two roads"?
A. We usually choose the negative road
B. We should choose the positive road
C. We must choose either a positive or negative road
D. Our belief about the future depends on our choice
3. Which of the following about "Fear" is true?
A. We should have fear because it is a gift.
B. Reasonable fear helps to plan for future.
C. Fear can bring cheese and risk to people.
D. Leaders usually have oversized fear.
4. If we have faith in future, we will ________.
A. have the best days ahead of us
B. be committed to saving money
C. stay away from any challenges
D. take powerful actions today
5. What does the writer intend to tell us in the passage?
A. Fear is closely related to faith.
B. Life is full of fear and faith.
C. We should have faith in a positive future.
D. Wrong decisions sacrifice our future success.

     It is well known that the Japanese people"s love of fish is almost as strong as a bee"s interest in
honey. As fish populations were decreasing, fishing companies were forced to fish further and further
away from the shore. Then they had a big challenge - how to keep the fish fresh for longer. So they
decided to keep the fish stored in freezers on the boats. But the public did not like frozen fish. So again
the fishing companies had a new bigger challenge. What they decided to do was to have fish tanks on
their boats. After catching fishes, they would put them in the tanks and keep them living there until they
got back to shore. But in this protected environment, lacking predators (掠食者), the fish stopped moving around. The Japanese public felt these dull fish did not taste fresh, which had an unpleasant effect upon
sales. Once again the fishing companies had an even bigger challenge …
    Stop for a minute! Before we go any further, I would like to ask "What are your challenges? How do
you handle an unexpected challenge? " May I think it this way that you should try to attack your
challenges? Conquer them with a Swiss Army knife. Take the most proper and simple tool that you
can adopt to deal with your situation.
    Now back to our story. How did the Japanese finally figure out the fresh fish problem? Sharks! You
might think the same. Sharks were caught and put into the tanks with other fishes. Don"t sharks eat fish?
Well, they do eat a few fish, but they did also keep more fish active and alert (警觉的). The fish stay
fresh because they are challenged.
   Now, try to keep yourself fresh by finding your own shark to offer yourself a challenge in your own
business and career.
1.The main reason for the fishing company to fish in the far sea is that _______.
A.the fish resource near the shore was decreasing
B.the fishes farther away from the sea tasted fresher
C.people would prefer eating fresh fishes to less fresh ones
D.it was getting harder and harder to keep fishes fresh
2.Which was the best way for the fishing company to keep fishes fresh?  
A.Getting the fishes frozen.     
B.Storing the fishes with salt.
C.Putting the fishes in tanks.      
D.Keeping the fishes with sharks in tanks.
3.The underlined part of the last paragraph means "_______."
A.If you went fishing, you might do as the fishing companies did
B.Try to find a big shark, and you will meet your challenge  
C.To succeed in life, you should always be ready to meet challenges
D.Sharks are usually compared to the challenges in people"s life
4.The purpose for the author to write the passage is to ________.
A.tell the readers how the Japanese fishing companies work
B.tell the readers how the Japanese keep the fish fresh
C.suggest readers looking for challenges to make progress
D.suggest readers finding a shark to keep the fish fresh
请认真阅读下列短文,并根据短文的内容要点完成文章后的表格。
注意:补全填空应符合语法和搭配要求,每空只填一个单词。
     The statement, "you can do anything you put your mind to," leads us to believe that all you must do is imagine what
you"d like to accomplish, set your mind to the task, and wait for success.
     To a certain degree this is true.Focused intention combined with action is a powerful force.But the statement is
misleading because it fails to mention the difficulty and necessity of focusing your mind on a special goal.
     Most of us don"t know what we want.We think we do, but we really don"t.we only know what we don"t want.
We don"t want a boring job.We don"t want to be poor.We don"t want to disappoint our loved ones.
     Knowing specially what you want is much different from knowing what you don"t want.When you only know what
you don"t, your intentions aren"t focused.Consider this example.
     Pete doesn"t want to be poor.He"s sick of earning less than his friends, and he"s determined to raise his position.
To accomplish this goal, Pete could take many different paths.He could train for a high paying profession.He could
start his own company, go into real estate, or do many other things that would lead to acquiring wealth.
     But Pete isn"t sure what he wants to do.He doesn"t know which path best fits his skills and personality, so he doesn"t
make a decision to follow any particular path.
     Hoping to answer this question, he investigates a dozen possibilities, but as soon as he runs into adversity, he decides
that path isn"t for him and moves on to a new solution.
     Pete"s actions aren"t focused.Although he works very hard, his efforts don"t build on each other rather than building
one giant inaccessible sand castle, Pete has built twenty small ones that are easy to collapse.He ends up confused and
discouraged.What"s worse, Pete"s lack of focus leads to failure.
     What if Pete had chosen a specific path? A set of specific goals is much easier to achieve than an unclear goal like
becoming wealthy.Being focused on a path gives Pete a logical set of actions to follow.Each accomplishment is one
step closer to thefinal goal.
     I think we can all agree that committing to a clearly defined path, regardless of which one, gives Pete the best chance
of becoming wealthy.
     But how can he choose a path if he doesn"t know what he wants? Maybe money isn"t his only goal.Maybe he wants
to do something he loves at the same time.Maybe he can"t afford to go back to school.Reality is complicated, and
Pete doesn"t want to commit too soon.And that"s why he failed.

     Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sorrow, failure and success,
hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make
us a better person. With each passing day we learn to handle various situations.
                                                       Love
     Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person
could go Hayward(不归路) and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life,
our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about
what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only
after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings.
Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
                                         Happiness and Sorrow
     Materialistic happiness is short-lived, but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others
face gives a certain level of fulfillment. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness. No mind is
happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow
is basically due to death of a loved one, failure and despair. But these things are temporary and
pass away.
                                            Failure and Success
     Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us
a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect. Here it becomes very
important to keep our head on our shoulder he only way to show our gratitude to God for
bestowing success on us is by being humble, modest, courteous and respectful to the less
fortunate ones.
                                            Hope and Despair
     Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes
us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour,
because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same we have only one choice
keep moving on in life and be hopeful.
     Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control.
Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dull. So the only alternative is work hard
today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
