A famous scientist made some great inventions. A newspaper reporter asked him why he thought he was able to be so much more creative than other persons. What made him so successful and different from others?
He said it all came from an experience with his mother when he was about two years old. when he lost his control on the bottle and it fell, pouring the milk all over the kitchen floor — a sea of milk!
His mother didn't shout at him,instead, she said, "Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made!. Well, something bad had happened. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?"
Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, "You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, you have to clean it up? We could use a sponge(海绵)or a towel. Which I do you prefer?" He chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilled(溅出的) milk.
His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to carry a big milk bottle with two small hands. and see if you can find a way to carry it without dropping it." In the end, the little boy learned how to carry the bottle without dropping it. What a wonderful lesson!
A. Let's go out and fill the bottle with water B. What really have you done C. He tried to move a bottle of milk from the refrigerator D. So, how would you like to do that E. I have never seen such a huge pool of milk |

We did a survey (调查) about students' free time activities yesterday. One of our questions was about exercise and of course, it is the most important one. From the survey, we knew only 25% of the girls often have activities outside. Many girls do little exercise. They don't like P.E. classes and even don't play sports. These girls may face a lot of problems. They may get fatter and weaker, And they may get some kinds of illnesses(疾病) easily. Wang Jing, a 16-year-old girl, said, "I don't like doing exercise. I like watching TV on the sofa. I spend at least three hours watching TV a day. My sleeping time is no more than seven hours a day. I often feel tired
Some girls said, "We don't have enough time to do exercise. We must help our parents with housework because they are very tired after a day's work. We do some washing, clean the house and finish the homework. We don't have time for doing anything else."
Everyone may have these excuses(借口) for not doing exercise. However, we must know that if we don't do exercise, we will get sick easily. As students, we'd better exercise every day. That makes us live a healthy life.
