A 82 graduation, students come to realize what they have learned at school has not really prepared them for the next step.Increasingly, teachers are getting to know the idea of learning from our failures. If youve never failed at anything, youve certainly never t 83 anything new. Exam grades are important and we encourage all students to aim high and to do well.

They were surprised to find that he didnt have a good performance at school and hedidnt s 85 become a great chef.

His success didnt come from grades, it came from his character: courage, effort and confidence.We should develop social skills through the whole school as an important p 87 of learning. This is why there is a focus on performance, sport and other activities. These life skills will work hand-in-hand with knowledge to enable students to do well in their future life.DAnswer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（12分）You have saved my horse, Queen Olivia told the young boy standing before her. “Now you shall have a reward.
