Life is full of ups and downs. You must understand that you will sometimes fail at things, and it is okay when
that happens. Almost all of our lives, we have been taught that failure is really bad, and when we fail, we must
drown（沉浸）ourselves in sorrow. This is an entirely wrong approach.
From a kid to an adult, you will fail at many things in life but that will only tell you about yourself. You will
learn about your true capabilities, what you are good at, and what you are bad at. We must learn to accept the process
rather than run from it. Only then will we be able to achieve our goals in life.
Let me tell you something about myself and how I faced failures in life. In my early years a school, I had trouble
with some subjects. I used to get really bad grades. Sometimes, I would get an F, which would make me really scared.
I used to think: What will I show my parents? So what I used to do was to cover those grades up. I would turn the F
into a B just to please my parents. The short version is that it didn’t work out, and eventually, I was caught doing that.
I learned a lot after that. I knew that I had to accept that failure and learn from it, and something good actually came
from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B naturally, and that B turned into an A.
Whenever you face a failure, never think that you are never going to recover from this. You must think of ways to
better yourself. Did you know that it took Thomas Edison 10,000 attempts to perfect the light bulb? Bill Gates failed
many times; even his first company was a complete failure. These prove that we must learn from our failures, not run
from them!
24. What does the author think of failures?
A. They bring us great pressure and wrong ideas.
B. They can be avoided if we take things seriously.
C. They sadden us and make us lose faith gradually.
D. They can lead to success if we learn from them.
25. What did the author once do after he got bad grades at first?
A. He told his parents the truth but got a scolding.
B. He made up his mind to learn as much as he could.
C. He secretly changed his grades to please his parents.
D. He paid no attention to them and kept studying hard.
26. Why does the author mention Thomas Edison and Bill Gates in the last paragraph?
A. To present their outstanding achievements.
B. To stress the necessity to learn from failures.
C. To explain the great significance of hard work.
D. To show their approaches to starting a business.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. Rome Is Not Built in a Day B. There Is No End to Learning
C. Failure Is the Mother of Success D. A Good Beginning Is Half Done
C
From solar panels to electric cars, clean energy has become a bigger part of our lives in recent years. A new
report from the International Energy Agency（IEA）predicts that it will only develop a stronger foothold in the
decades to come, with more solar panels, electric cars, and renewable energy by 2030.
The IEA analyzed the current policies and added that there will likely be two-thirds more clean energy ten years
from now with a decreased dependence on fossil fuels. “The transition to clean energy is happening worldwide and is
unstoppable. It’s not a question of ‘if’, but a matter of ‘how soon’—and the sooner, the better for all of us,” says the
IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol.
“Governments, companies, and investors must support clean energy transitions rather than hinder them. There
are immense（巨大的）benefits on offer, including new industrial opportunities and jobs, greater energy
security，cleaner air, universal energy access and a safer climate for everyone. Considering the ongoing strains and
volatility（波动）in traditional energy markets today, claims that oil and gas represent safe or secure choices for the
world’s energy and climate future look weaker than ever,” Biral adds.
Although this is welcome news for many, the IEA stresses that more improvement will be needed for the 200
countries in the Paris Agreement to meet the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celcius（34.7 degrees
Fahrenheit）. Governments must triple renewable capacity, reduce methane emissions from fossil fuel operations by
75%, and triple clean energy in developing economies.
“Every country needs to find its own pathway, but international cooperation is crucial for accelerating clean
energy transitions,” Birol asserts. “In particular, the speed at which emissions decline will be largely determined by
our ability to finance sustainable solutions to meet rising energy demand from the world’s fast-growing economies.
This all points to the importance of redoubling cooperation, not retreating（逃避）from them.”
28. What does the new report from the IEA show?
A. The demand for fossil fuels is still currently strong.
B. The worldwide shift to clean energy is unstoppable.
C. The threat of global warming is being underestimated.
D. The use of renewable energy is a new focus of mankind.
