题目列表(包括答案和解析)

When something goes wrong,it can be very satisfying to say,“Well, it’s so-and-so’s mistake.”or “I know I’m late,but it’s not my mistake;the car broke down.”It is probably not your mistake,but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation,you are a loser You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.

 Winners are good at dealing with problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car checked more regularly. Or, you might start to carry the useful phone numbers with you, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague(同事) causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t depend on the person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.

  This is what being a winner is all about-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose mistake it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.

I was f  3   and I didn't know what to do ! " he said.

  His mother heard the noise and got into the kitchen." I was c  4   how to explain all this to you ,mom." he said.Instead of punishing(惩罚)him, she said "Robert ,what a great mess you have made! I have never seen such a huge sea of milk before! well, since the milk has a  5   been spilled ,would you like to play in the milk for a while ? We can it up after that."

  Indeed , he did so.After a few minutes , his mother said,"You know ,Robert ,whenever you make a mess like this , finally you have to clean it up." He used a sponge(海绵)and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.

  His mother then said ,"you know ,we failed in how to successfully carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands just now.Let's go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water to see if you can f  6   a new way to carry it."Then the little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands , he could carry it w  7   dropping it.
