success. but part of me didnt. i actually wanted her to fail in some ways because i believe that failure can be good for our learning process. success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or doing something correctly the first time, which can often be a problematic (存在问题的) victory. first-time success is usually a fluke (侥幸). first-time failure, by contrast, is supposed to be the natural order of things. failure is how we learn. in africa they describe a good cook as “she who has broken many pots.” if youve spent enough time in the kitchen to have broken a lot of pots, probably you know a fair amount about cooking. i once had dinner with a group of cooks, and they spent time comparing knife wounds and burn scars. they knew how much credibility (可信) their failures gave them. i earn my living by writing a daily newspaper column. each week i am aware that one column i write is going to be the worst column. i try my best every day. i have learned to cherish that column. a successful column usually means that i am discussing my familiar topic, writing in a style i am used to or saying the same things as anyone else but in a fancy way. my younger daughter is a trapeze artist. she spent three years putting together a show, and she did it successfully for years. there was no reason for her to change it but she did anyway. she said she was no longer learning anything new and she was bored. and if she was bored, there was no point in subjecting (使服从于) her body to all that stress. she risked failure and great public embarrassment in order to feed her soul. my granddaughter is a perfectionist. she will feel her failures, and i will want to comfort her. but i will also, i hope, remind her of what she learned, and how she can do better next time. i hope i can tell her, though, that its not the end of the world. indeed, with luck, it is the beginning.56. why did the author want his granddaughter to fail? a. success is boring though beneficial. b. its impossible to do everything successfully. c. she would learn more from failure. d. he wanted her to be strong enough to face hardships.57. whats the authors attitude toward his daughter changing her show? a. positive b. worried c. negative d. anxious58. the author develops the article mainly by _. a. following the time order b. giving examples c. comparing different opinions d. presenting a cause and analyzing its effects59. the writer talked about his own experience to show that _. a. we cannot depend on luck to live a good life b. we should try every possible way to avoid failure c. past failures made him dare not take risks in writing d. the thought of failure will make you work even harderbthe best shopping in sydneysydney is one of the worlds biggest cities

the internet d. a posterdone morning in philadelphia, the sun shone bright through all the thick jungles and the tall churches. john, 6, wearing the worn-out clothes, walked from a far place, his dark small hands holding a piece of stolen bread.john stopped for a moment at the entrance to the church and then left tightly holding the bread,he was an orphan(孤儿), whose parents were killed in world war ii leaving him alone in the orphanage for five years, like many children in the house, he had a lot of free time. mostly no one took care of them, so they had to learn how to steal those they wanted.john believed god to be real, so every sunday morning in any case he would go to the church to have a look and listen to those people singing inside or reading the bible. he felt only at this moment he was the child of god and so close to god. but he couldnt enter because his clothes were so dirty. john himself knew it.john was quietly calculating the times. this was his 45th sunday at the entrance to the church. he stood on tiptoe（踮着脚尖） for a while and walked away.as time passed, the pastor(牧师) noticed john and learned from others that he was the small boy who liked stealing things in the orphanages.on the 46th sunday, the sun was shining and john came still holding a piece of bread with his dark small hands. when he just stood there, the pastor came out. he felt like running away, but he was carried by the pastors friendly smile.the pastor walked up to his side, clearly seeing johns small hands shaking.are you john? john didnt answer, but looked at the pastor and nodded.do you believe in god? the pastor patted john on his head with dust.yes, i do! this time john told him loudly.so you believe in yourself?john looked at the pastor, without a word.the pastor went on saying, at the first sight of you, i find youre different
