When you make a mistake,big or small,cherish(珍惜)it like it is the most valuable thing in the world.
Most of us feel bad when we make mistakes.That is only natural:most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad,and that we should try to avoid(避免)mistakes.We've been blamed when we make mistakes at home,school and work.
Yet without mistakes,we could not learn or grow.
If you think about it that way,mistakes should be cherished anti celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world:they make learning possible,and they make growth and improvement possible.
Think about how you learn:you don't just read about painting,or writing,or computer programming...and know how to do them right away.
Instead,you get information about something,from reading or from another person or from watching carefully...then you have a model in your mind...then you try it in the real world...then you make mistakes...then you revise(修改)the model...and repeat,making mistakes,learning from those mistakes,until you have learned how to do something.
Mistakes ate how we learn to do something new--because if you succeed in something,it is probably something you already knew how to do.You haven't really grown much from that success--at most it is the last step on your journey,not the whole journey.Most of the journey was made up of mistakes,if it is a good journey.
So if you value learning,if you value growing and improving,then you should value mistakes.
Cherish your mistakes.Smile.

Hi Brad,
It’s good to hear from you again. I find that I’m not good at writing compositions. It’s hard for me to prepare the form of a composition and organize sentences. ①Could you tell me how to deal with this problem? I would really appreciate if you offer me some good methods.
Best wishes,
Cindy
Hi Cindy,
A composition is really a story and any story is told to an audience. There is a form for this and it is in three parts. First, tell them(the audience) what you are going to tell them. Then tell them, and finally tell them what you told them. Parts one and three are short and most of the information is in part two. It works like this.
Let’s say you are asked to write a 200-word composition about your visit to the Great Wall. You would begin with an opening sentence or two saying something like “The Great Wall of China is a national ②landmark that is famous around the world. I visited it last summer and I want to tell you about it.” That uses about 25 words to tell them what you are going to tell them.
The second part would be about 150 words and would contain information about the Great Wall such as how long it is, when it was built, who built it and why, the fact that it is one of the seven wonders of the world and you would talk about how you felt and what you thought when you visited this national treasure. This is telling them.
Finally, you would use about another 25 words to say something like “That was my first visit to the Great Wall and it was a very emotional experience to actually touch something so old and famous. ③每个中国人至少参观长城一次.I plan to go back whenever I can.” Here, you are telling them what you told them in the story and wrapping it all up into a neat package. This formula(惯例)works for both compositions and speeches and I think you will find it helps to organize your thoughts. I hope it’s helpful.
Best wishes,
Brad Franklin
