It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why.

First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t.” Look around you. With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new．

Another good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learning．Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work．

Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeed．Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer.But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences（后果） of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again．

We all have limited time and money so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate （分配） these resources properly so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again．If you accept and use your mistakes in this way ,you can make great progress in your business and your career．

There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.”

So go ahead and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And succeed．

1.From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _______．

A．mistakes are unnecessary for development

B．we are afraid of trying new thing

C．it’s common for people to make mistakes

D．mistakes are better than not trying

2.The underlined word “eliminate” means _______．

A．a(chǎn)void B．remove C．a(chǎn)ccept D．solve

3.According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is_____．

A．a(chǎn)voiding making the same mistakes

B．a(chǎn)ccepting the punishment willingly

C．taking consequences into consideration

D．trying things out one by one

4.What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?

A．Never mind, I can always try again．

B．I’d better stay out of trouble．

C．Ok! Now I can learn something．

科目：高中英語 來源：2014-2015年湖南岳陽縣一中高二上期末考試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Children start out as natural scientists, eager to look into the world around them. Helping them enjoy science can be easy; there is no need for a lot of scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children’s curiosity.

Firstly, listen to their questions. I once visited a classroom of seven–year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me “textbook questions” about schooling, salary and whether I liked my job. When I finished answering, we sat facing one another in silence. Finally I said,” Now that we’ve finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science?”

After a long pause, a boy raised his hand, “have you ever seen a grasshopper (蚱蜢) eat? When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why?”

This began a set of questions that lasted nearly two hours.

Secondly, give them time to think. Studies over the past 30 years have shown that. After asking a question, adults typically wait only one second or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When adults increase their “wait time” to three seconds or more, children give more logical, complete and creative answers.

Thirdly, watch your language. Once you have a child involved in a science discussion, don’t jump in with “That’s right” or “very good”. These words work well when it comes to encouraging good behavior. But in talking about science, quick praise can signal that discussion is over. Instead, keep things going by saying, “That’s interesting” or “I’d never thought of it that way before”, or coming up with more questions or ideas.

Never push a child to “think”. It doesn’t make sense; children are always thinking, without your telling them to. What’s more, this can turn a conversation into a performance. The child will try to find the answer you want, in as few words as possible, so that he will be a small target for your disagreement.

Lastly, show; don’t tell. Real-life impressions of nature are far more impressive than any lesson children can learn from a book or a television program. Let children look at their fingertips through a magnifying glass, and they’ll understand why you want them to wash before dinner. Rather than saying that water evaporates(蒸發(fā)), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level drop.

1.According to the passage, children are natural scientist, and to raise their interest, the most important thing for adults to do is______.

A. to share the children’s curiosity

B. to let them see the world around

C. to explain difficult phrases about science

2.In the last sentence of the first paragraph, the word “l(fā)ist” could best be replaced by______.

A. any problems

B. questions from the textbooks

C. any questions

D. any number of questions

3.According to the passage, children can answer questions in a more logical, complete and creative way if adults______.

A. ask them to answer quickly

B. wait for one or two seconds after a question

C. wait at least for three seconds after a question

D. tell them to answer the next day

4.In which of the following paragraph(s) does the author tell us what to say to encourage children in a science discussion?

A. The second and third

B. The fifth

C. The fifth and sixth

D. The fourth and fifth
