What an interesting picture!A Western young man,sitting at a table,is ready to eat a bowl of noodles.He is holding two forks the same way as we Chinese hold chopsticks.He is trying so hard to pick up the noodles that he is sweating a lot.At first glance,I think it?s a bit funny,for we Chinese take it for granted that chopsticks are the tools for eating noodles.The man in the picture is trying to copy us.Obviously he is doing it with great trouble.Maybe using one fork will do a better job.In my opinion,we don?t need to copy others? ways of thinking.Sometimes a simpler way of doing things may be a better one.

In one way of thinking， failure is a part of life. In another way， failure may be a way towards success. The “spider story ”often told， Robert Bruce， leader of the Scots in the 13th century， was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider spinning a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock.
29
He tried six times without success. On the seventh time he made it and went on to spin his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat the English.--- Edison， the inventor of the light bulb， made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.
So what? First， always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were you in top form yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?
Second ， is the goal (目标) you’re trying to reach the right one ? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question，“If I do succeed in this， where will it get me ?”This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.
The third thing to bear in mind about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself ”even though you may have failed. Remember， “You can’t win at all.”
21. This passage deals with two sides of failure. In paragraph 1， the author talks mainly about ___________.
A. the value of failure B. how people would fail C. famous failures D. the cause of failure 22. The underlined phrase “made it ”means ________ . A. succeeded B. failed C. gave D. got
23. The lesson the spider taught Robert Bruce seems _________ . A. productive B. straight forward C. sorrowful D. deep
24. The author tells you to do all things except ________ . A. to think about the cause of your failure
B. to check out whether your goals are right for you C. to consider failure as a part of life
D. to bear in mind that you will never fail in your life
