At a nation’s saddest moment, its greatest heroes are born.
On September 11th, 2001, many police officers and government officials in America worked day and night to save lives from the big fire at the World Trade Centre. And in Japan, after the serious earthquake, a group of workers showed their courage.
The earthquake on March 11th made Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant(福岛核电站) turn off and stop its protective cooling systems. And later, a fire broke out.  Workers were told that the plant’s radiation(辐射) could be harmful to human health. Hundreds of workers left the plant quickly. However, a group of workers decided to fight against the fire and the damage, though they knew it could cause very serious health problems. There were 50 workers in all, so they were also named the "Fukushima 50". The workers worked in shifts(轮班).
People knew little about the workers, who were mainly experts (专家) with the skills to control the situation. One woman said that her father had volunteered to stay there. "I heard that he volunteered even though he would retire(退休) in just half a year and my eyes were filled with tears. I am really proud of him. And I pray for his safe return.

     Charles Chaplin was born in London on April 16, 1889. His parents were music hall actors. The Chaplin family were very poor, and life was difficult in London. Charlie, as he was called, used to do his mother's job in the theatre when she was ill.

     When he was only 17 years old, Chaplin got his first real job as an actor. What he did was to do silly things to make people laugh in the theatre. Seven years later he went to the USA. And over the next four years, he formed his own way of art. He developed the character (~J ~, )of a homeless gentleman which became very popular.

      From the 1920s to the 1950s, Chaplin made his most famous films. The film Modern Times (1936) shows his care about the modern industry workers. Many of his films describe the poor life and hard time of the working people during that period.

In one way of thinking. failure is part of life. In  31 way, failure may be a way towards success. The “Spider-story” is often  32 .Robert Bruce , leader of the Scots in the 13 th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider  33 a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough 34 in the rock. He tried six times. On the  35 time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to  36 the English . Edison , the inventor of the light bulb, made 37  models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked   38 he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have  39  failure. Now I know 50,000 ways it won't   40 ”.

So what? First,always think about your failure. What caused  41 ?Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change? So things will go   42  next time.

Second, is the goal you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some   43  about what your real goals may be. Think about this question. “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?" This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing any way.

The third thing to keep in  44 about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself" even though you may have  45
