As space science develops, man has learned more and more about space. Space is not only amazing but also dangerous. While working in space, spacemen are facing danger as well as success.

When spacemen are working in space, they are. in danger of radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The damage(危害) done by radiation won't be discovered until their children or even grandchildren are born. Some special medicine may work a little, but no really helpful medicine has been.

Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working on helpful ways to do with space junk.

My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced: “Get up, you're going with me to cut the grass in the garden. ”

　　The idea that my father thought I was old enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunup to sundown, my father, my younger brother and I worked in the large garden. By the end of the day I was too tired to say a word but I felt good. This was my first time to help my father in his business. I got $ 6 for my work that day.

　　One day my father found some leaves I had missed and pulled me aside. “Take away these leaves! ”he said, “and don't make me have to tell you to do it again.” The message was clear. Today I value(珍视)the importance of doing a job well the first time. It will never fail to impress(给……留下印象） the person you are working for.

　　After two years, my father told me and my brother that he felt we were old enough to cut the grass by ourselves. Every Saturday during my last two years of high school, we set off early in the morning with the same strong wish we had gained while working under our father.

　　Looking after the garden was neither exciting nor high paying, but that didn't matter. It taught me that any job was a good job and that whatever I was paid was more than I had before.

　　A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live with hard work and low pay. “If you're only thinking about hard work and money, you probably don't want to do any better than you are doing.” I answered. In every job, from cutting the grass to washing dishes, I've learned much. I've learned something that helps me in my next job.

　　If you work hard enough, you can learn from any job you do.

One day, a boy found the cocoon(茧) of a butterfly and brought it home. A few days later, the boy saw a small ___31___in the cocoon. He sat and watched for several hours as a butterfly struggled to make ___32___body through that little hole. Suddenly it stopped.

So the boy ___33___to help the butterfly, thinking the butterfly might be ___34___. He took a pair of scissors(剪刀) and cut the hole ___35___. The butterfly came out of the cocoon, but it ___36___a little different. It had a weak body and small, thin ___37___. The butterfly didn’t start to fly. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a weak body and thin wings. It was never able to fly.

The boy acted with___38___but he didn’t understand why it could be like this. When a butterfly crawl out of the cocoon, it must struggle. The hard work of ___39___out of the cocoon makes the fluid(液体) from the butterfly’s body into its wings. It helps the butterfly be ___40___to fly. If the butterfly never has to squeeze(挤压) itself out of the cocoon, its wings will never get the fluid and it can never fly.

___41___struggles are what we need in our lives. If we lived our lives without any problems, we would never learn or grow. We would not be ___42___ we could have been and we would never fly.

In our lives, pain and suffering is the key to all windows, and sometimes even ___43___ growth, without it, there’s no way of life. We can’t avoid ___44___ or problems. So, next time you are ___45___ a problem or difficulty, remember the butterfly. Struggle a little–then fly!
