If you go to Thailand you ll see a very interesting vehicle 交通工具 It is like a three wheeled 三轮的 motorbike There is a cabin 舱室 for the driver in the front and two or three passengers 乘客 can sit at the

things you are growing If you never try anything new how can you improve How can you make yourself stronger The simple answer is You can t Look around you With very few exceptions 例外 either everything you see in your 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 it felt to fail that many times he said that he hadn t failed 10 000 times but rather had learned 10 000 things that didn t work Finally when you make a mistake you are much closer to success Why Because when all is said and done you will have tried some numbers of things before you succeed Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer But this all doesn t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences 后果 of a mistake However when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits 限度 so that in the event that it doesn t work out the way you want it to you will be in a normal place to try again We all have limited time and money so don t blow them all on one problem Realize that it probably won t be perfect the first time and deal with these resources 资源 properly so you can learn make corrections and try it again If you accept and use your mistakes in this way you can make great progress in your business and your career There is an old saying that goes If you re not making mistakes you re not

science questions asked by their curious children only because they have no idea what the answer is Here is a list of some simple questions that you can ask your parents to see if they know the answers Q Why is the sky blue A You probably know white sunlight is made up of seven colors While it moves in a straight 第 18 页 共 25 页 line when going through space it starts to divide as it hits raised area in the atmosphere The ones with longest wavelengths pass through easily The blue however can be taken in by the gas molecules 分子 because it has a shorter wavelength which in turn scatters 使分散 it in different directions That s why when you look up at the sky it appears to be blue Q Why does the moon sometimes appear during the daytime A The simple answer to that is because just like any other object it is being lit by the sun As long as it is around 45 degrees or even 90 degrees off the sun it will receive light and be able to be seen The only time it is not able to be seen during its 28 day orbit 轨道 around the earth is when it is right between the earth and the sun That s because its back which is not lit by the sun is facing us Q Where do birds honeybees go in winter A While the bird part is quite easy since a lot of them get together and travel the honeybee part is likely to puzzle your parents It turns out that these busy insects stop being that active when the temperature drops below 50 F Instead they get together in the lower central area of the hive 蜂巢 and form a ball around their queen This helps keep both warm enough to survive the cold winter months 1
