(№1In life, there’s a lot of pressure to be successful in school, on the playing field, at work, and in our personal relationships. And yet, at some point, we will all lose a game, fail an exam, or be turned down for a job or a date. Failure is hard to deal with, but there are some important lessons it can teach us. Lesson 1: Learn from your mistakes. Think about what you did wrong and how you can do things differently in the future. “I learned how not to climb Mount Qomolangma the first four times I tried,”says mountain climber Pete Athans. After studying his mistakes and making changes to his plan, Athans finally reached the top of Qomolangma on the fifth try.Lesson 2: Be careful. Very often, when everything’s going right, it can be easy to be careless and make mistakes. Maybe you did poorly on a test because you thought you knew everything and didn’t study enough. Failures like this remind us that things can go wrong and that we need to be careful.No one likes failure, but it’s important not to give up. Failure is an opportunity to learn and grow. “There’s no magicQuestions1.Where does JR come from?( b )a.the North Poleb.Francec.the USd.Germany2.Why does JR often risk arrest by the police?( d )a.Because JR invites people to take self-portraits.b.Because over 100,000 self-portraits have appeared in countries all over the world.c.Because JR won’t reveal his full name.d.Because his photos seem to take on political meaning.3.How do people respond to JR’s project?( c )a.People who didn’t approve of street art start to agree.b.People normally look away from the portraits.c.People are attracted by the portraits.d.People all enjoy the portraits.3.判断题Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).( T )1.The Freerice site lets you choose from lots of subjects.( T)ers can practice and learn English vocabulary.( F )3.For every correct answer, you get a point.( F )4.There’s no advertising on the website.( T )5.You can play alone or in teams.翻译①我们每年花费巨额资金观察气候的变化以及群星的运行。
