Failure, they say, is the best teacher.We learn and gain more confidence through trial and error.At one time or another we will encounter failure.You don’t have to accept your failure if what you really want to achieve is success.

For every achievement, there have been one or more failures.But those who we call successful are those who refuse to accept failure and believe success is the other side of failure.The incandescent light (白炽灯) was invented after 1000 failure.Assuming he had stopped after he tried 100 times without the desired result, what would have been the result of such effort?

Any time you see products and new inventions, think in terms of failures that are not accepted.Moreover, everything in a microform today is a result of failure that is not accepted.Any time your effort is  not bring a desired result, you don’t have to call it a failure.Call it a chanllenge.What is the difference between the two? One is negative, and the other is positive; one motivates, and the other demotivates.

What you need is positive thinking and motivation to attain success.Failure is an end thing; challenging is an open thing.Failure means there is no way out, no altermative, but challenge is a question mark asking another way out of the situation, an alternative solution to the problem, the job at hand.Keep dreaming and moving; that is the solution to success.A wise man once said if you cannot fly, run.If you cannot run, walk.If you cannot walk, crawl; just keep on moving.

If you fall down, you have to get up and start moving.If not, other people will step on you to the way to their success.What you call failure and abandon is what someone will continue with just a little additional effort to reach success.

     Years ago, when I started looking for my first job, wise advisers advised, "Barbara, be enthusiastic
(热情的)! Enthusiasm will take you further than any amount of experience. " How right they were!
     "Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. "wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson.It is the paste
that helps you hang on there when the going gets tough. It is the inner voice that whispers, "I can do it!"
when others shout, "No, you can’t!” It took years and years for the early work of Barbara McClintock,
a geneticist who won the 1983 Nobel Prize in medicine, to be generally accepted. Yet she didn’t stop
working on her experiments.Work was such a deep pleasure for her that she never thought of stopping.
     We are all born with wide-eye, enthusiastic wonder and it is this childlike wonder that gives
enthusiastic people such youthful air, whatever their age. At 90, cellist Pablo Casals would start his day
by playing Bach. As the music flowed through his fingers, his stooped (弯曲的)shoulders would
straighten and joy would reappear in his eyes. As author and poet Samuel Ulman once wrote, "Years
wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”
     Enthusiastic people also love what they do, regardless of money or title or power. Patricia Mcllrath,
retired director of the Missouri Repertory Theater in Kansas City, was once asked where she got her
enthusiasm. She replied, "My father, a lawyer, long ago told me, ‘I never made a dime until I stopped
working for money.
’"
     If we cannot do what we love as a full-time career, we can as a hobby. Elizabeth Layton of
Wellsville, Kan was 68 before she began to draw. This activity ended periods of depression that had
trouble her for at least 30 years, and the quality of her work led one critic to say, "I am tempted to call
Layton a genius."
     We can’t afford to waste tears on "might-have-beens". We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go
after "what-can-be". We need to live each moment whole-heartedly, with all our senses-finding pleasure
in the sweet smell of a back-yard garden, the simple picture of a six-year-old, the beauty of a rainbow.
1. The author holds the view that ______.
A. enthusiastic people will never get old
B. enthusiasm can make you succeed and enjoy life
C. enthusiasm is more important than experience
D. enthusiasm can give people more success and fame
2. The author mentions cellist Pablo Casals in the third paragraph to show that ______.
A. music can arouse people’s enthusiasm
B. enthusiasm can give people inspiration needed to succeed
C. enthusiasm can make people feel young
D. enthusiasm can keep people healthy
3. Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph?
A. Enthusiasm can give you courage and strength in difficult times.
B. If you don’t have enthusiasm, you can achieve nothing.
C. Enthusiastic people seldom consider money and fame.
D. Enthusiastic people can gain great fame and honor.

阅读理解。
     My father was 44 and knew he wasn't going to make it to 45. He wrote me a letter and hoped that something
in it would help me for the rest of my life.
     Since the day I was 12 and first read his letter, some of his words have lived in my heart. Only part always
times out. "Right now, you are pretending to be a time-killer. But I know that one hay, you will do something
great that will set you among the very best." Knowing that my dad believed in me gave me permission to believe
in myself. "You will do something great." He didn't know what that would be, and neither did I, but at times in
my life when I've felt proud of myself, I remember his words and wish he were here so I could ask. "Is this
what you were talking about, Dad? Should I keep going?"
     A long way from 12 now, I realize he would have been proud when I made any progress. Lately, though.
I've come to believe he'd want me to move on to what comes next: to be proud of, and believe in, somebody
else. It's time to start writing my own letters to my children. Our children look to us with the same unanswered
question we had. Our kids don't hold back because they're afraid to fail. They're only afraid of failing us. They
don't worry about being disappointed. Their fear-as mine was until my father's letter-is of being a
disappointment.
     Give your children permission to succeed. They're writing for you to believe in them. I always knew way
parents loved me. But trust me. That belief will be more complete, that love will be more real, and their belief
in themselves will be greater if you write the words on their hearts; "Don't worry; you'll do something great."
Not having that blessing from their parents may be the only thing holding them back.
