I recently heard a story about a famous scientist. Because of his great
achievements, he was thought to be more creative than a common person. When he
was asked why he was able{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(do) this, he gave the answer. It all came
from an experience with his mother when he was about three years old. "I
tried{#blank#}2{#/blank#}get a bottle of milk from the fridge but
it fell, spilling(溢出）the milk all over the floor— a sea of milk! I was frightened and I didn't know what to do!"
he said.
His mother heard the noise and got into the kitchen. "I{#blank#}3{#/blank#}(consider)
how to explain this to you, Mum, "he said. Instead of{#blank#}4{#/blank#}(punish)
him, she said, "Robert, what a great mess you have made! I haven't seen{#blank#}5{#/blank#}a sea of milk before! Well, since the milk
has already been spilled, would you like{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(play)
in the milk for a while? We will clean it{#blank#}7{#/blank#}after
that. "Then, he did so. After a few minutes, his mother said, "You
know, Robert, whenever you {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(make) a mess like this, finally you have
to do it by yourself. "He used a sponge（海绵）and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.
His mother then said, " You know, we failed to successfully carry a
big milk bottle with two tiny hands just{#blank#}9{#/blank#}.
Let's go out in the yard and fill the bottle with water to see if you can
discover a way to carry it. "Then the little boy learned that if he
grasped(抓紧）the bottle at the top with both
hands, he could carry it without{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(drop) it.
What a wonderful lesson!
