Stephen Glenn is a famous scientist who has made several medical breakthroughs．When 1 why he was so much more 2 than the average person, he replied that it all came from an experience 3 his mom…At 2, he was trying to 4 a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he 5 his hold on the slippery bottle and it fell, spilling(洒)its contents all over the kitchen floor!When his mom came in, instead of shouting at him or 6 him a lesson, she said,“Robert, what a great mess you've made!I've 7 seen such a sea of milk．Well, now that the 8 has been done, would you please get down and 9 in the milk for a while 10 we clean it up?”So happily he did．After that, his mom said,“Robert, whenever you make such a mess like this, you'll have to clean it up and restore(恢复)everything to its proper 11 ．So which do you prefer, a sponge, towel or mop?”He 12 the sponge and together they cleaned up the milk．His mom then said,“Robert, you've just had a 13 experiment about how to carry a big milk bottle 14 with two tiny hands．Now go to the sink to fill the bottle with 16 and see if you can discover a way to carry it safely．”Instantly Robert learned that he could 16 it if he grasped the bottle at the 17 near the lip with both hands．
18 wonderful a lesson!The famous scientist then remarked it was then and there that he came to know that 19 were just opportunities for learning something new, which is what scientific experiments are all about．
Wouldn't it be great if all parents could 20 the way Robert's mom did to him?
It was only in the eighteenth century that people in Europe began to think mountains were beautiful． 1 that time, mountains were 2 by the people living on the plain, 3 by the city people, to whom they were wild and 4 places in which one was easily 5 or killed by terrible animals．
Slowly, however, many of the people who were living 6 in the towns began to grow tired of 7 ．They began to feel interested in looking for things which could not be explained, for sights and sounds which produce in a feeling of fear and excitement． 8 in the 9 century, people began to turn away from the man-made 10 to untouched country, and particularly 11 places where it was dangerous and wild．High mountains began to be 12 for a holiday．
Then, mountain-climbing began to grow popular as a sport．To some people, it is something greatly 13 about getting to the． 14 of a high mountain：a struggle against nature is finer than a battle 15 other human beings．And than, when you are at the mountain top after a long and difficult 16 , what a 17 reward it is to be able to look 18 on everything within 19 !At such time, you feel happier and prouder than you can ever feel down 20 ．

Mr．Jones woke early one morning, before the sun had risen, it was a beautiful morning, 1 he went to the window and looked out．He was surprised to see 2 middle-aged professor, who walked in the university just up the road from Mr．Jones’s house, 3 the direction of the town．He had grey hair and thick glasses, and was carrying an umbrella, a morning newspaper and a bag．Mr．Jones thought that he must have 4 by the night train, and decided to walk to the university instead of taking a taxi．
Mr．Jones had a big tree in his garden, and the children had 5 a long rope to one of the branches so that they could swing on it．
Mr．Jones was 6 to see the professor 7 when he saw the rope, and looked 8 up and down the road．When he saw that there was nobody in sight, he 9 into the garden, put his umbrella, newspaper, bag and hat on the grass and 10 the rope．He 11 it hard to see whether it was strong enough to 12 his weight, then ran as fast as he could and swung into the 13 on the end of the rope, his grey hair 14 all around his face．Backwards and forwards he swung, 15 taking a few more 16 steps on the grass when the rope began to swing 17 slowly for him．
At last the professor stopped, 18 his tie, combed his hair carefully, put on his hat, picked up his umbrella, newspaper and bag, and 19 his way to the university, looking as 20 and correct and respectable as one would expect a professor to be．
