a. the roller skates was dangerous and harmful.b. the party guests thought merlin was a fool.c. merlin succeeded beyond expectation.d. merlin should never do that again. bif youre not making mistakes, youre not trying hard enough.its good to make mistakes. thats not a typo, folks，and i have not lost my mind. it is good to make mistakes, and heres why.first of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. its 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? how can you innovate? the simple answer is, “you cant.” 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 he felt to fail that many times, he remarked that he hadnt failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didnt work.finally, when you make a mistake you are that much closer to success. why? because when all is said and done, you will have tried some finite number of things before you succeeded. every time you made a mistake you eliminated（消除）one of those things and are one step closer.but this all doesnt mean that you should forge ahead with disregard for 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 doesnt 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 dont blow them all on one approach to a problem. realize that it probably wont be perfect the first time and allocate these resources appropriately so you can learn, modify, and try it again. only by embracing and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career.there is an old axiom that goes, “if youre not making mistakes, youre not trying hard enough.”so go forth and make mistakes. and learn. and grow. and prosper. 55. which of the following isnt suitable for the passage?a. mistakes suggest that people are trying something new.b. people can draw lessons from their mistakes.c. mistakes mean that people are getting closer to success.d. people can afford to make mistakes as long as they limit them. 56. the underlined word “typo” means _.a. printing mistake b. computer errorc. poor handwriting d. bad typing57. its good to make mistakes as long as _.a. people use them positively b. people avoid them quicklyc. they help people get well d. they dont have side effects58. what does the writer mainly tell us in the passage as far as mistakes are concerned?a. dont be afraid of making mistakes. they are unavoidable.b. try your best to make fewer mistakes. they are expensive.c. dont be afraid of making mistakes. they are beneficial.d. the more mistakes you make, the more advances youll make.c welcome to one of the largest collections of footwear（鞋类）in the world that will make you green with envy. here at the footwear museum you can see exhibits（展品）from all over the world. you can find out about shoes worn by everyone from the ancient egyptians to pop stars.room 1 the celebrity（名人）footwear section is probably the most popular in the entire museum. started in the 1950s there is a wide variety of shoes and boots belonging to everyone from queens and presidents to pop stars and actors! most visitors find the celebrities choice of footwear extremely interesting.room 2 most of our visitors are amazed and shocked by the collection of “special purpose” shoes on exhibition here at the museum of footwear. for example , there are chinese shoes made of silk that were worn by women to tie their feet firmly to prevent them from growing too much!room 3 as well as shoes and boots the museum also exhibits shoe shaped objects. the variety is unbelievable. for example, there is a metal lamp that resembles a pair of shoes, and greek wine bottles that look like legs!the footwear library people come from all over the world to study in our excellent footwear library. designers and researchers come here to look up information on anything and everything related to the subject of footwear.59. where would you find a famous singers shoes?
