Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced in the meantime.A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can     swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water.He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still       away.A mother who has not      the words or years can teach her daughter the poem that begins " Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or        the story of Cinderella or Snow White .
One explanation is the law of over learning, which can be stated as following:        we have learned something, additional learning increases the        of time we will remember it.In childhood, we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them.We continue to listen to and        ourselves of poems such as "Twinkle.twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White.We not only learn but
      
The law of over learning explains why cramming (突擊學(xué)習(xí)) for an examination.      it may result in a passing grade, is not a        way to learn a school course.By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is       soon to forget almost everything he learned.A little over learning,       , is usually a good investment toward the future.

One effective way of destroying happiness is to look at something and focus on even the smallest fault. It’s like looking at the tiled(鋪瓦的)ceiling and concentrating on the space where one tile is     .
Once I heard a bald man said, “whenever I enter a room      I see is hair.” Once you’ve     what your missing tile is, explore whether acquiring it will     make you happy. Then do one of the three things: get it, replace it with a different     , or forget about it and      the tiles in your life that are not missing.
We all know people who have a relatively      life, yet are essentially unhappy. while people who have suffered a great deal but     remain happy.
The first      is gratitude. All happy people are      . Ungrateful people cannot be happy. We tend to think that being unhappy leads people to      , but it’s truer to say that complaining leads to people becoming unhappy.
The second secret is      that happiness is a byproduct of something else. The most obvious      are those pursuit that give our lives purpose — anything     studying insects to playing baseball. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are     to experience.
Finally, the belief that something permanent goes beyond us and that our     has some larger meaning can help us to feel happier. We       a spiritual faith, or a philosophy, it should     this truth: if you choose to find the  in every situation, you will be blessed, and if you choose to find the awful, you will be cursed. As with happiness itself, this is     your decision to make.

My brother and I were in Orlando Florida to witness our first Space Shuttle Launch. The Discovery was         to soar at 10:14 AM on a blue sky September day. I’d seen it         so many times on television,         now I was only minutes away from seeing it launch. And it’s the final demonstration of the         of success: Success Takes Off Like a Rocket.
Witnessing the Take Off:
Standing close to the Space Shuttle         home one unforgettable point—the Shuttle is the height of a 15-story building—it         4.5 million pounds—and NASA is trying to lift it 200 miles off the ground. On TV the accomplishments look so much        , so much easier.
Crowds of people are standing around with you to watch the Shuttle go. The countdown begins through the small         of hundreds of portable radios all tuned to the NASA station. It’s enough to get your heart beating        .
When time is up, the side booster rockets are lit up and the eight explosive bolts        . The first things you see are large white         clouds exploding away. Through the steam, you see the fire power. Then the Space Shuttle begins to inch off the pad and climb its way        . Thousands upon millions of pounds of         can hardly lift the shuttle at all. But with ever increasing ease, the shuttle picks up and roars into the sky, headed into space attaining a        of over 17,000 mph.
It is within the first two minutes to launch the Space Shuttle that the great success lesson is      . Fact: 85% of the shuttle’s fuel is consumed within the first 2 minutes just to get the 15-story super structure to its orbital        .
And that’s exactly how success        : The first steps you take towards launching a successful career are the         and will require an enormous consumption of energy—a great big push. However,         you persist through the launch period, which can seem almost         for quite some time, everything gets easier and easier and your results get bigger and bigger.
