14、We can choose failure, but we can’t choose fear. That’s like what James Cameron said “Failure Is an Option, but Fear Is Not” at the end of his TED talk and I love it. We shouldn’t be afraid of facing failure, try to accept it and learn from it.
Make room for failure
Nobody wants to fail, but failure is often on your way to success. Geprge Bernard Shaw s aid, “A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable(可敬的), but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.” So if you never fail then it probably means that you do nothing. Failure shows that you actually do something instead of just sitting in your comfortable seat.
Learn from each failure
Don’t just fail and get nothing out of it. Learn something from each failure that makes you better and better.
Fail fast
Time isprecious, so if you failed then you’d better fail fast. Why? Because it will make you learn and improve faster. Don’t wait until everything is perfect. Instead, test your idea in the real world as soon as possible.
Don’t choose fear
Many people don’t want to work on something unknown. But fear is not a good choice, so you should be will ing to try out your new ideas. Even if you aren’t successful, you will still come out better than before.

15、In the middle of a really embarrassing moment, you might feel like you just want to disappear. Maybe you wish for a time machine that could send you back five minutes. Well, time machines are hard to come by in the real world, so finding a better way of getting through the humiliation(蒙羞的场面) is needed.
Sometimes, embarrassment is caused by how we act after we make an unwanted thing. If the thing is a small one, you can just pretend it didn't happen, and many people won’t notice. On the other hand, if you stop, or get red in the face after you've messed up, people will really notice, and it will be hard to let the moment pass by. Of course, some embarrassing moments are too big or obvious for this plan to work.
Sometimes when you meet or get caught in a really cringe-worthy(尴尬的) moment, it doesn't seem funny. Other people may laugh, but you just get red in the face and feel like curling up in a ball of shame. But there are some people who can laugh at their own mistakes. When they mess up, they laugh harder than their friends do! People likethisdon't stay embarrassed for long, because this can turn into another funny story. They might even make a joke about their mistake before anyone else gets the chance to.
You shouldn't pretend a laugh if you really feel angry or embarrassed, but changing your attitude or outlook might be worth trying. Remember that a thing that makes you embarrassed today will probably make you laugh tomorrow. So why not try to laugh today?

17、American schools are quite different from those in China. In America, at the beginning of the term, students must
Selecting is very important for your marks in America. So at the first term, don't select too many subjects, or you'll feel very nervous and tired. Then you have to ask for some teaching plans. There is some information about subjects, time arranging, marks and textbooks. At the same time, you must choose the teachers. Different teachers have different teaching methods. If the teacher is called "killer" by the last grade, many students will give up choosing him, because this kind of teacher will leave too much homework, too many exams and give too low grades.

In order to save money, many students buy some used textbooks, and some students usually borrow textbooks from the school library.

A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road at a crossing in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.“Chinese style road crossing” has become a hot expression recently. Chinese people “cross roads without thinki ng about traffic lights, so long as they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo.
Many people say that they jaywalk（乱穿马路）because the red light lasts too long. “People are likely to ignore（忽略）the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear（忍受）,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team. However, a survey on Sina Weibo showed that nearly half of respondents（调查对象）believe that people jaywalk mainly because they don't respect rules.
Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions to punish jaywalkers. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined（罚款）50 yuan in Shijiazhuang. But calling on people to respect rules is more important. To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.

19、As time goes by，there are many different kinds of communication methods now. As for me, I prefer to chat with others by
mobile phone, but sometimes I chat by communication software, such as WeChat and QQ.
Mobile phones bring great convenience to people, but people can only hear the sound by phones. By using net software, we can easily see the people we talk to on the Internet. However, sometimes we concern more about mobile phones instead of the people around.
In my opinion, we should pay more attention to the face to face communication and try not to waste too much time on mobile phones.。
