When his mother came into the kitchen,instead of(41)B at him,giving him a lecture or punishing him,she said,"Robert,what a great and wonderful(42)B you have made!I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk.Well,the(43)D has already been done.Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes(44)D we clean it up?"

His mother then said,"You know,what we have here is a (47)B experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands.Let's go out in the back yard and (48)A water into the bottle and see if you can discover a way to carry it without (49)B it."The little boy (50)C that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands,he could make it.What a wonderful (51)D!
This renowned scientist then(52)C that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be afraid to make mistakes.Instead,he learned that mistakes were just(53)C for learning something new,which is,after all,what scientific(54)D are all about.Even if the experiment"doesn't work,"we usually learn something (55)A from it.

5.Life is never smooth.It's full of ups and downs,some hard times,some glad moments,and sometimes just nothing.So everyone should balance and accept all the ups and downs in life.For this,a person must think positively,which gives a person energy,motivation,power and patience to live each day.Positive thinking means you decide to be happy even though facing problems.This makes you confident so that you can live happily.
When you ask for positive and good things to occur in your life,you are thinking positively.Positive thinking is nothing but channelizing (疏导) your energies in one positive direction so that the things you wish for are attracted towards you.If you wish for something from your heart and work towards achieving it,sooner or later,you'll get it.
To make your life better,you have to train yourself to think positively in any situation.You can design some positive thinking affirmations (断言) for the things you desire in life.For example,if you want success in life,then a positive affirmation for success could be"I'm going to be successful because I'm working hard for it".You must call out,write,or remember positive affirmations at least a couple of times throughout the day and you'll see your life changing for better.
You can form a combination between positive affirmations and imagination.For example,if you wish for a happy family,imagine that you're happily playing with your kids and spouse (配偶) with your parents looking at you all with satisfaction.It'll immediately make you feel good.You can also repeat the affirmations every morning before going out and you would certainly feel positive.However,you must link your positive affirmations to actual daily actions,and they'll surely come true.
                               Title:Positive thinking
 
(76)Benefits/Advantages
l  Help people balance and (77)acceptall the ups and downs in life.

12.Joseph Pulitzer (April 10,1847---October 29,1911)was a Hungarian-American publisher best known for establishing the Pulitzer Prizes after death.
Pulitzer was born in Mako,Hungary.At 17,Pulitzer attempted to join the Austrian army,but was turned down due to age,bad health and poor eyesight.Disappointed but still with hope,he traveled first to Paris and then to London,hoping to join the army there.And he was rejected for the same reasons.Finally,he moved to the United States in 1864and served in the Lincoln Army when he was just 18until the end of the American Civil War.After the war he settled in St.Louis,Missouri,where in 1868he started working as a reporter for a German-language daily newspaper,the Westliche Post.He joined the Republican Party and was elected to the Missouri State Assembly in 1869.
In 1872.Pulitzer bought the Westliche Post for 3,000.Then,in1879,heboughttheSt.LouisDispatchfor2,700and merged (合并) the two papers as the St.Louis Post-Dispatch,which remained St.Louis'daily newspaper.He bought the New York World in 1883,which turned out to be a successful decision,and which made Pulitzer wealthy.In 1885,he was elected to the US House of Representatives,but resigned after a few months'service.In 1895the New York World introduced the first newspaper comic printed with colour.Under Pulitzer's leadership circulation (发行量) grew from 15,000to 600,000,making it the largest newspaper in the country.But unfortunately from 1890,Pulitzer's already failing health worsened rapidly and he withdrew from direct management of the newspaper,and simply gave some instructions from his vacation houses in Maine or in New York.At the age of forty,he was struck blind,but he still continued to run his press empire for twenty-two more years.
In 1892,Pulitzer offered Columbia University's president money to set up the world's first school of journalism.But the university turned down the offer.In 1902,Columbia's new president willingly accepted the plan for a school and prizes,but it would not be until after Pulitzer's death that this dream would come true.Pulitzer left the university $2million in his will,which led to the creation in 1912of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.And up till now,Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism still remains one of the most famous in the world.
Joseph Pulitzer died aboard his sailing boat in 1911.He was buried in the Woodlawn Cemetery in The Bronx,New York.In 1917,the first Pulitzer Prizes were awarded,as Pulitzer wished to.
In 1989,in honor of his great achievements and contributions,Pulitzer was included in the St.Louis Walk of Fame.
