Four steps will help you get the most out of each failure and more on.1 When you feel bad after failing, talk with your parents or good friends, or any other adult. Then decide to take t he duty to improve yourself. Read the teachers’ comments on your test carefully.Ask yourself what you were trying to do and why you failed. 2 Maybe you didn’t have all the information you needed; maybe you made a mistake or a poor decision. If so, give yourself a pat on the back. Fewer people ever get something right the first time they try it, and often it takes them many times. 3 Sometimes the failure isn’t because of something you did or didn’t do; it is someone else’s fault. But don’t spend time blaming them; instead, move on toward your goals.4 . Review the situation to see what your choices are. There is a different between making a decision and giving up. Deciding to follow a better way is one thing; simply walking away means you really have failed.Keep trying again. Successful people are different because they choose their next steps instead of just reacting to feelings. If a goal still important to you, figure out what to do and go after it again. 5 .A. No pains, no gains.B. Don’t give up easilyC. Failure is unavoidableD. Remove your bad feelingsE. If it isn’t, do your best on something elseF. Actually it was because you were very lazyG.

Standing up straight makes you look and feel confident. When you approach someone, make eye contact and smile to show you’re friendly and interested. 3Speak upSpeak loudly and clearly enough so that people don’t have to struggle to hear you. If you don’t know what to say, ask questions. 4 When people are talking, pay attention to what they’re saying rather than planning what you’ll say next. And if you’re not sure what they mean, ask!Value peopleMost importantly, show people you care. Your concerns for them will be obvious if you smile and listen carefully.5 Don’t keep them waiting.

After students have read the passage or a section of it, they can start summarizing. 2●Select important information. I ask the students to go through each paragraph, sentence by sentence, asking themselves which information is necessary to the argument. They should point out complete sentences as much as possible. 3 Pay attention to these important points: author, title, reason why the passage was written, purpose, theme, key words, link words, all major aspects, explanations and author’s opinion.●Paraphrase(释义)the information. I ask the students to point out the information of the previous step in their own words. 4 They should try to shorten long and complex sentences into much shorter ones.● 5 Let students make sure that the connection between sentences is clear and reasonable and that each group of sentences smoothly fit in one paragraph.A.

Af ter you’ve been introducedto someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. 2 ●Admit you don’t knowAdmitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Mostof them will feel sympathy i f you say. “I’m working to remember names better. 3 What is it again?”●Use associationsLink each person yon meet with one thing out find interesting or unusual. For example,you could make a mental note: “Vicki Cheng---tall, black hair.” To reinforce you’reyour associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.●4When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names.Free yourself from remembering every one.
