19．People are always afraid of making mistakes．But sometimes it is not bad to make mistakes，and here is why．
First of all，mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying n ew things．It's always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing．If you never try new things，how can you improve？How can you create？The simple answer is，"You can't．"Look around you．Everything you see is the result of someone trying new things．
Another good thing about mistakes is this：when you are making mistakes，you are learning．Consider this：Edison failed 10，000 times before he invented the light bulb．When he was asked how he felt after having failed so many times，he claimed that he hadn't failed 10，000 times，but had learned 10，000 things that didn't work．
Finally，when you make a mistake，you are much closer to your goal．Why？Because you have said what you should say，and you have done what you should do．Every time you make a mistake，you are closer to your goal．But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thinking．Instead，when you try new things，you have to think them over so that you can keep away from some unnecessary mistakes．
As the old saying goes，"If you are not making mistakes，you are not trying hard enough．"So go bravely and make mistakes．And learn．And grow．And succeed．

20．People in the United States honor their parents with two special days：Mother's Day，on the second Sunday in May，and Father's Day，on the third Sunday in June．These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents．They raise their children and educate them to be responsible（有责任感的） citizens．They give love and care．These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers．More mothers now work outside the home．More fathers must help with child care．
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways．On Mother's Day people wear carnations．A red one symbolizes a living mother．A white one shows that the mother is dead．Many people attend religious services to honor parents．It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery（墓地）．On these days families get together at home，as well as in restaurants．They often have outdoor barbecues for Father's Day．These are days of fun and good feelings and memories．
Another tradition is to give cards and gifts．Children make them in school．Many people make their own presents．These are valued more than the ones bought in stores．It is not the value of the gift that is important，but it is"the thought that counts"．Greeting card stores，florists，candy makers，bakeries，telephone companies，and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays．

17．3 habits of remarkably charming people
　　Some people instantly make us feel important．Some people instantly make us feel special．Some people light up a room just by walking in．They're naturally charming．（36）FFamiliarity leads to，well，familiarity．
　　（37）D：They build and maintain great relationships，consistently influencing the people around them positively．They're the kind of people we all want to be around and want to be．Fortunately we can，because being remarkably charming isn't about our level of Success or our presentation skills or how we dress or the image we project-it's about what we do．Here are the 3 habits of remarkably charming people：
　　They listen more than they talk．
　　Ask questions．Maintain eye contact，smile，flown or nod．In a word，respond-not so much verbally，but nonverbally．（38）BThen when you do speak，don't offer advice unless you're asked．Listening shows you care a lot more than offering advice．
　　（39）G　　No one receives enough praise．No one．Tell people what they did well．Wait，you say you don't know what they did well？Shame on you-it's your job to know．It's your job to find out ahead of time．Not only will people appreciate your praise，they'll appreciate the fact you care enough to pay attention to what they're doing．
　　They choose their words．
　　For example，you don't have to go to a meeting； you get to go meet with other people．You don't have to create a presentation for a new client； you get to share cool stuff with other people．You don't have to go to the gym；（40）CYou don't have to interview job candidates； you get to select a great person to join your team．

D．But some people are remarkably charming．

---He is fine now．（　　）

14．Well，I finally decided to enter the digital age．My kids have been annoying me； my book group made fun of me； and the last straw was when my car broke down，and I was stuck on the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help．But when I went to the cell phone store，I almost changed my mind．The phones are so small that I can't see the numbers．They all have cameras，computers and a Global Positioning System that's supposed to spot me from space．All I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids!And the rate plans（资费套餐）!They were complex，confusing，and expensive!I'd almost given up when a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone．

Call now and get a FREE GIFT--$24in value!Try the Jitterbug for 30days and if you don't love it，just return it．The phone comes preprogrammed with your favorite numbers，and if you aren't as happy with it as I am，you can return it for a refund（退款）of the purchase price．
