27、ey scientist on space programs and rocketry (火箭技术) of the Peoples Republic of China. This pioneering scientist passed away in Beijing on October 31 in 2009 at the age of 98. Once called “the father of our space industry”, Qian began working on Chinas missile and space technology in 1956, when China

Its always good to try new things because when you are tr

36、ying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You cant”. Look around you. With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone

37、trying something new.Another good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb.

38、ned 10,000 things that didnt workFinally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why?Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeeded. Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer.But this al

Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesnt work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again.We

40、 all have limited resources in the form of time and money so dont blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably wont be perfect the first time and allocate (分配) these resources appropriately so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again. Only by accepting and using your

41、 mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your careerThere is an old saying that goes, “If youre not making mistakes, youre not trying hard enough”So go forth and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And prosper（成功）60. From the second paragraph, we can conclude that

54、houses even after they have paid a large amount of mortgage(抵押). It is getting difficult for young people to find jobs. People feared that a similar crisis like the one in 2008 may be already on its way. It is Wall Street that possessed the most riches. It is Wall Street greed that, at least partly,

55、 led to the financial crisis in 2008. It was Wall Street's "fat cats" who take taxpayers' aid money as their own big bonus (奖金). With the growing economic crisis around the world, people realize that Wall Street is responsible for it. So they try to target people who created the crisis.The majority of the protesters are young people under 30. Many of them are unemployed. Some are students with mountains of loans (贷款).
