her a warm welcome and then kindly asked the other passengers to make more room for the woman and her child. on seeing this, people began to talk. you know this conductor used to be very rude. now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior , said a middle-aged man.yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company, said a second passenger. thats right, another lady said, i wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor. just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said , excuse me, but can i know your

behavior to passengersd. has now been kind and polite to women with childrenc when you make a mistake, big or small, cherish it like its the most precious thing in the world. because in some ways, it is. most of us feel bad when we make mistakes, beat ourselves up about it, feel like failures, get mad at ourselves.and thats only natural: most of us have been taught from a young age that mistakes are bad, that we should try to avoid mistakes. weve been scolded when we make mistakesat home, school and work. maybe not always, but probably enough times to make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction. yet without mistakes, we could not learn or grow. if you think about it that way, mistakes should be cherished and celebrated for being one of the most amazing things in the world: they make learning possible; they make growth and improvement possible. by trial and errortrying things, making mistakes, and learning from those mistakeswe have figured out how to make electric light, to paint the ceiling of the sistine chapel, to fly. mistakes make walking possible for the smallest toddler, make speech possible, make works of genius possible.think about how we learn: we dont just consume information about something and instantly know it or know how to do it. you dont just read about painting, or writing, or computer programming, or baking, or playing the piano, and know how to do them right away. instead, you get information about something, from reading or from another person or from observing, then you make mistakes and repeat, making mistakes, learning from those mistakes, until youve pretty much learned how to do something. thats how we learn as babies and toddlers, and how we learn as adults. mistakes are how we learn to do something newbecause if you succeed at something, its probably something you already knew how to do. you havent really grown much from that successat most its the last step on your journey, not the whole journey. most of the journey was made up of mistakes, if its a good journey. so if you value learning, if you value growing and improving, then you should value mistakes. they are amazing things that make a world of brilliance possible.28. why do most of us feel bad about making mistakes?a. because mistakes make us suffer a lot.b. because its a natural part in our life.c. because mistakes have ruined many peoples careers.d. because weve been taught so from a young age.29. according to the passage, what is the right attitude to mistakes?a. we should try to avoid making mistakes.b. we should owe great inventions mainly to mistakes.c. we should treat mistakes as good chances to learn.d. we should make feeling bad about mistakes an unconscious reaction.30. the underlined word “toddler” in paragraph 5 probably means .a. a school teenager learning to write b. a kindergarten child learning to drawc. a primary pupil learning to read d. a small child learning to walk31. we can learn from the passage that .a. most of us can really grow from successb. growing and improving are never based on mistakesc. it is mistakes that help us learn or growd. we read about something and know how to do it right away.dsome people learn a second language easily. others have trouble learning a new language. how can you help yourself learn a new language, such as english? there are several ways to make learning english a little easier and more interesting.the first step is to feel positive about learning english. if you believe that you can learn, you will learn. be patient. you do not have to understand everything all at once. it is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new. we can learn from our mistakes. in other words, do not worry about taking risks（风险）.the second step is to practice your english. for example, write a diary every day. you will get used to writing it in english, and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in english. several weeks later, you will see that your writing is improving. in addition, you must speak english every day. you can practice with your classmates outside class. you will make mistakes, but gradually you will become
