14．Mothers and daughters go through so much-yet when was the last time a mother and daughter sat down to write a book together about it all？Perri Klass and her mother，Sheila Solomon Klass，both gifted professional writers，prove to be ideal co-writers as they examine their decades of motherhood，daughterhood，and the wonderful ways their lives have overlapped （重叠）．
Perri notes with amazement how closely her own life has mirrored her mother's：both have full-time careers； both have published books，articles，and stories； each has three children； they both love to read．They also love to travel-in fact，they often take trips together．But in truth，the harder they look at their lives，the more they acknowledge their big differences in circumstance and basic nature．
A child of the Depression （大萧条），Sheila was raised in Brooklyn by parents who considered education a luxury for girls．Starting with her college education，she has fought for everything she's ever accomplished．Perri，on the other hand，grew up privileged in the New Jersey suburbs of the 1960s and 1970s．For Sheila，wasting time or money is a crime，and luxury is unthinkable while Perri enjoys the occasional small luxury，but has not been successful at trying to persuade her mother into enjoying even the tiniest thing she likes．
Each writing in her own unmistakable voice，Perri and Sheila take turns exploring the joys and pains，the love and bitterness，the minor troubles and lasting respect that have always bonded them together．Sheila describes the adventure of giving birth to Perri in a tiny town in Trinidad where her husband was doing research fieldwork．Perri admits that she can't sort out all the mess in the households，even though she knows it drives her mother crazy．Together they compare thoughts on bringing up children and working，admit long-hidden sorrows，and enjoy precious memories．
Looking deep into the lives they have lived separately and together，Perri and Sheila tell their mother-daughter story with honesty，humor，enthusiasm，and admiration for each other．A written account in two voices，Every Mother Is a Daughter is a duet （二重奏） that produces a deep，strong sound with the experiences that all mothers and daughters will recognize．

13．For years scientists have been worried about the effects of air pollution on the earth's natural conditions．Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside．
Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution．People began to notice the problem in the early 1970s．When builders began making houses and offices，they did not want to waste energy．To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside．They also used man-made building materials which are now known to let out harmful gases．
As the problem became more serious，scientists began searching for a way to deal with it．They discovered a natural pollution control system for building green plants．
Scientists believe that a plant's leaves  absorb  the pollutants （污染物）．In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves．Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals．So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants．

12．When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，"Well，it's so-and-so's fault．"or"I know I'm late，but it's not my fault； the car broke down．"It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser．You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation．However，you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation．This is the winner's key to success．
Winners are great at overcoming problems．For example，if you were late because your car broke down，maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly．Or，you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers，so you could call for help when in need．For another example，if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability，find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person．Ask to work with a different person，or don't rely on this person．You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well．
Being a winner is all about creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens．Winners don't have fewer problems in their lives； they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else．They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents．So，stop focusing on"whose fault it is．"Once you are confident about your power over bad situations，problems are just stepping stones for success．
