It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why.
First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t”. Look around you. With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new.
Another good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.
Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why?
Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeeded. Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer.
But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again.
We all have limited resources in the form of time and money so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate (分配) these resources appropriately so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again. Only by accepting and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career.
There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.”
So go forth and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And prosper(成功).
1.From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _______.
A.mistakes are unnecessary for development |
B.we are afraid of trying new things |
C.it’s common for people to make mistakes |
D.mistakes are better than not trying |
2.The underlined word “eliminate” means _______.
A.a(chǎn)void |
B.remove |
C.a(chǎn)ccept |
D.solve |
3.According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is .
A.a(chǎn)voiding making the same mistakes |
B.a(chǎn)ccepting the punishment willingly |
C.taking consequences into account |
D.trying things out one by one |
4.What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?
A.Never mind, I can always try again. |
B.I’d better stay out of trouble. |
C.Ok! Now I can learn something. |
D.Look at this mess. Anyone would be upset. |

科目:高中英語 來源:2014屆安徽省高二上學(xué)期10月月考英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解
There is a lot of misunderstanding about studying. Most students have not been taught the principles behind really effective working. Imagine a graph showing the amount a person learns against the number of hours he works in a day. If he doesn’t do any work, he learns nothing (point 0). If he does an hour’s work he learns a certain amount (point 1). If he does two hours’ work he learns about twice as much (point 2). If he does more work he’ll learn still more (point 3). However, if he tries to do twenty-three and a half hours’ work in a day, he will be so tired that he’ll hardly remember anything: what he learns will be very little (point 4). If he did less work he’d learn more (point 5).
Now whatever the exact shape of the graph’s curve(曲線), made by joining these points, it must have a high point. Point “X” is the very maximum anyone can learn in the day. And this represents the optimum(最適度), the best, amount of work to do. It is the best possible compromise between adequate time at the books and fatigue(勞累). Fatigue is an absolutely real thing; one can’t escape it or ignore it. If you try to ignore it and press yourself to work past the optimum, you will only get on this downward slope and achieve less than the best – and then become very tired and lose your power of concentration.
The skill in being a student consists of getting one’s daily study as near the optimum point as possible. I cannot tell you what the optimum is. It differs with the type of work, it differs from person to person, and even in the same person it varies from week to week. You must try to find your own. Every day you study, bear this principle of the optimum in mind. When you feel yourself getting fatigued, if you find yourself reading the same paragraph over and over again and not taking it in, that’s a pretty good sign you’ve reached your highest point for the day and should stop. Most ordinary students find their optimum at five hours a day. Yours may be a little more or a little less – but if you get in five hours’ good work a day, you will be doing well.
Now, what are you doing with yourself when you aren’t working? Before examinations some students do nothing at all except sit in a chair and worry. Here is another misunderstanding. People often think that the mind works like the body; it does not. If one wanted to save one’s physical energy in order to cut the maximum amount of firewood, one would lie flat on a bed and rest when one wasn’t chopping. But the mind cannot rest. Even in sleep you dream, even if you forget your dreams. The mind is always turning. It gets its relaxation only by variety. That is what makes the mind rest.
When you’ve finished your optimum number of hours you must stop. You must not then sit around in the chair thinking about the work – that only tires without any learning. You must get out and do something. It doesn’t matter what – anything so long as you are actively doing something else but work.
1.According to the passage, _______.
A.the longer you study every day, the more you will learn |
B.you’ll achieve better learning results if you work three hours every day |
C.the less work you do, the better you will learn |
D.your work efficiency will decrease once you exceed a certain point of work |
2.Fatigue can result in ________.
A.loss of memory |
B.a(chǎn) need for relaxation |
C.a(chǎn) lot of anxiety |
D.loss of concentration |
3.The passage tells us that a person’s optimum number of working hours _______.
A.follows a regular pattern with each individual |
B.changes regularly from week to week |
C.can be partly determined by the sort of work he is doing |
D.should be determined before he gets too tired |
4.The only way the mind can relax is by ________.
A.doing a variety of things in turn |
B.not thinking about anything |
C.turning continuously |
D.getting oneself in a state of fatigue |
5.After you have reached the optimum point of study in a day, you should ________.
A.lie in bed and rest |
B.do something else actively |
C.do some physical labor |
D.stop thinking about your studies |
