10个填空) 1.F ailure: What can we learn from it? (
№1
In life, there’s a lot of pressure to be successful in school, on the playing field, at work, and in our personal relationships. And yet, at some point, we will all lose a game, fail an exam, or be turned down for a job or a date. Failure is hard to deal with, but there are some important lessons it can teach us. Lesson 1: Learn from your mistakes. Think about what you did wrong and how you can do things differently in the future. “I learned how not to climb Mount Qomolangma the first four times I tried,”says mountain climber Pete Athans. After studying his mistakes and making changes to his plan, Athans finally reached the top of Qomolangma on the fifth try.
Lesson 2: Be careful. Very often, when everything’s going right, it can be easy to be careless and make mistakes. Maybe you did poorly on a test because you thought you knew everything and didn’t study enough. Failures like this remind us that things can go wrong and that we need to be careful.
No one likes failure, but it’s important not to give up. Failure is an opportunity to learn and grow. “There’s no magic
