Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures. J.K. Rowling's first Harry Potter book was refused 12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team. He lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. But he once said, "I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that's why I succeed."
These people succeeded because they understood that you have to let your failures teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently the next time. So if you get into trouble, that doesn't mean you're a troublemaker, it means you need to try harder to act right. If you get a bad grade, that doesn't mean you're stupid, it just means you need to spend more time studying. No one's born being good at all things, You become good at things through hard work. You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song. You've got to practice.
Don't be afraid to ask questions. Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day. Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness, it's a sign of strength because it shows you have the courage to admit when you don't know something, and that then allows you to learn something new. So find an adult that you trust - a parent, a grandparent or a teacher - and ask them to help you stay on track to meet your goals.
Now, your families, your teachers, and I are doing everything we can to make sure you have a good education. But you've got to do your part, too. So I expect all of you to get serious this year. I expect you to put your best effort into everything you do. I expect great things from each of you. So don't let us down. Don't let your family down or your country down. Most of all, don't let yourself down. Make us all proud.
— By President Obama

these questions can be found in US president Barack Obama's "back to school" speech. Here is
an excerpt (摘录) from his speech.
I know that sometimes, you get the sense that you can be rich and successful without any hard work-
that your ticket to success is through rapping (饶舌音乐) or basketball or being a TV star, when chances
are, you're not going to be any of those things.
But the truth is, being successful is hard. You won't love every subject you study. Not all the homework
will seem completely important to your life right this minute. And you may not succeed at everything the first
time you try.
That's OK. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures.
JK Rowling's first Harry Potter book was turned down 12 times before it finally came out. Michael Jordan
was cut from his high school basketball team, and he lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots
(投篮) during his career. But he once said, "I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is
why I succeed."
These people succeeded because they understand that you can't let your failures beat you-you have to let
them teach you. You have to let them show you what to do differently next time.
No one's born being good at things. You become good at things through hard work.
Don't be afraid to ask questions. Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it. I do that every day.
Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness; it's a sign of strength. It shows you have the courage to admit (承
认) when you don't know something, and to learn something new.
And even when you're struggling, even when you're discouraged (泄气), and you feel like other people
have given up on you-don't ever give up on yourself. Because when you give up on yourself, you give up on
your country.
B. To explain that writing and sports are difficult skills.
C. To show that the two persons were treated unfairly.
D. To prove that failure is the mother of success.
B. Failure can be good if you treat it in a right way.
C. Those who believe in themselves shouldn't ask others for help.
D. One should try his best to make his dream come true.
B. One should believe in himself no matter what difficulty he is faced with.
C. One doesn't have to work hard when he has failed several times.
D. One doesn't have to take others' advice when they get away from him.
