    Mr. Beynolds, my teacher, handed us a list of thoughts, and asked us to write a paper on one of those thoughts. I chose the topic “I wonder why things are the way they are.”

    I wrote down all the questions that puzzled(困扰) me about life. I realized that many of them were hard to answer, and perhaps others could not be answered at all. When I handed in my paper, I was afraid that I might fail because I did not answer the questions.

    The next day, Mr. Reynolds handed me the paper and asked me to read it for the class. The other students became quiet as I began to read my story:

    Mum, why are the roses red? Why is the grass green and the sky blue? Why do I have to graduate(毕业)? Why do I have to grow up? Why do I have to be called “Grandma” on day? ...

    Dad, why can't I stay out until 12:00? Why do I miss my old friends? Why do I miss being at home? Why do you love me so much? ...

    Mum, Dad, why did you have to leave me? I need you.

    At the end of my story, I looked at Mr. Reynolds, and I saw a tear slowly coming down his face. Then I realized that life is not built on the answers we receive, but on the questions we asks.

    Some people have found that they always spend much more on travelling than planned. Here is how it happens:

    ⒈Preparing too much before travelling

    Some people, especially females, like to travel as if starting a new life. Several weeks before the trip, they would be busy shopping for new dresses, better sunglasses and best-selling books. They would rather fill their travelling bags up with all fashionable things. Just travelling? It's more like attending a fashion show. They care more about their appearance than the sights they see during the trip.

    ⒉Following other travellers blindly.

    They can't stop shopping for objects they would never normally buy and would certainly never use. For example, we can find a group of travellers" getting ahead" to buy "Christmas" presents even in summer.

    ⒊Replacing things that are forgotten to bring.

    They forget to bring things like trainers, cool bags, toothbrushes or beach towels. The towels sold near beaches are nearly the price of gold leaves. They spend a lot on those things. However, plenty of new towels are sleeping in their bathroom at home.

    People usually find themselves poorer than they planed after a holiday trip. There are mainly three {#blank#}1{#/blank#}. Firstly, some female travellers consider a journey as attending a fashion show. How they look seems more {#blank#}2{#/blank#} than what they see, so they spend more money on something new. Secondly, some people follow others without {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. When others do some shopping, they can't {#blank#}4{#/blank#} themselves. Thirdly, goods for daily use at tourist attractions aren't as {#blank#}5{#/blank#} as those back home. As a result, they may spend more than they thought.

    Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to risk making mistakes to achieve their goals and wishes, and who are able to learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes, you must be willing to pay for them.

    Mistakes can be very valuable, but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes, then you lose the chance to learn from them. When something goes wrong, it's usually very easy to find someone else's mistakes, but is that useful?

    Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they need a cost that must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the one who pays the price for that mistake.

    When you make a mistake, what you shouldn't do is to run away from it. You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has been made, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow that much stronger.

When you make a mistake, don't look back at it long. Remember the causes, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The present is still in your power. Make full use of your mistakes to achieve your goals and wishes.
