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 less on 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 restoreeverything to its proper 11 ．So which do you prefer a sponge towel or mop” He 12 the sponge and to get her 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 15 and see if you can discover a way tocarry it safely．” Instantly Robert learned that he could 16 it if he grasped the bottle at the 17 near the lip withboth 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
The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control．A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline; production limits have been laid down(though these have already been raised; and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers．But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems, and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long．As a Norwegian politician said last week, "We will soon be changed beyond all recognition．"
Ever since the war, the Government has been carrying out a programme of development in the area north of the Arctic Circle．During the past few years this programme has had a great deal of success：Tromso has been built up into a local capital with a university, a large hospital and a healthy industry．But the oil industry has already started to draw people south, and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins．
The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north, however．With nearly 100 percent employment, everyone can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil industry．Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad．
The real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life．Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population, but they are an important part of it, because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as essentially Norwegian．And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea．
