thought of failure send a cold shiver down your spine 脊柱 Failure is the thing most of us spend the greatest amount of energy trying to avoid What is failure In reality when you strip away all the emotions attached to the word failure is only feedback Failure means that we tried a strategy 策略 and it did not work So what should we do It s simple We should try something else Human beings learn by failure by understanding what does not work and by continuing to adjust their strategies until they find out what does work As young children we were very familiar with failure when we were trying to learn how to walk It is true that when we strive to do something that is new for us we might fail As a matter of fact we might fail many times but only by risking failure will we ever be able to grow A powerful way to deal with failure is to ask yourself What is or could be positive in this situation This allows you to obtain some benefit from the experience and then to move on Very often we achieve our greatest success right after we have experienced our worst defeat The bottom line is that we should embrace 拥抱 failure Because if we are failing we are learning and if we are learning we are growing And growing is really what life is all about Therefore failure is only feedback 63 In the opinion of the writer what is failure 用心 爱心 专心 7 A It makes people feel trembling B It costs us a lot of energy C It is a kind of feeling suffering D It proves we find an unsuitable method 64 What should you do with failure A To ask yourself a question on failure first B To learn something valuable from failure C To go on paying attention to it D To give up further efforts 65 Why do we need to accept failure A Because life is all about failure B Because you can t finish anything without failure C Because failures can improve ourselves D Because failure can teach you how to work 66 The best title for the passage is A Failure is only feedback B Failure is mother of success C Failure is unavoidable in life D Failure is a pay for your effort D The idea that all adults need at least eight hours of sleep a night for good health should be put to rest by mounting evidence that less may be better People who sleep about seven hours a night live the longest three huge studies have found Still many sleep experts say lots of adults get too little rest and that can lead to dangerous health problems In the latest report from Japanese researchers 104 010 adults were followed for about 10 years At the start the participants answered questionnaires about their sleep patterns and about their health mental health and lifestyle habits which also can affect survival After accounting for all of these factors adults getting an average of seven hours had the lowest death rates Surprisingly less sleep even as little as four hours a night didn t greatly increase deaths for men and only lowered survival for women if they averaged less than four hours But adults who slept longer than seven hours particularly women were more likely to die during the 10 years Hormonal changes caused by darkness of other unknown biological effects from long sleep could be affecting survival Kripke says But short sleepers may suffer other bad effects In his brief studies those sleeping four to five and a half did poorly on tests that measure memory clear thinking and the ability to pay attention and they did worse as the week went on says David Dinges Adults who slept about seven hours performed best he says People should get as many hours sleep as they need to feel rested Kripke says adding that there s no proof that shortening sleep will lengthen 用心 爱心 专心 8 life Sleep need is partly genetic 遗传的 and may be determined by other factors that also influence life span 67 What might the best title for the
