IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED

J． K． Rowling

It is impossible to live without failing at something， unless you live so carefully that you tell you that failure

is fun． But the knowledge that you have appeared wiser and stronger from failures means that you are ， ever

after， secure in your ability to survive．

Richard Branson

"My mother always taught me never to look back in regret but to move on to the next thing ． The amount of

time people waste dwelling on failures rather than putting that energy into another project always amazes me．"

George Clooney

The best advice I got from my aunt ， the great singer Rosemary Clooney， and from my dad， who was a

game show host and news anchor ， was ： Don't wake up at 70 years old sighing over what you should have

tried， Just do it， be willing to fail， and at least you gave it a shot．"

Michelle Kwan

I started figure skating at the age of five ， and the first thing my coach taught me was how to fall ． I

remember looking up with a puzzled expression， thinking， Shouldn't I be learning to any times throughout my

career and that I' d need to learn how to handle it．"

Laura Linney

"As the late great Jack Lemmon once said ，‘ Failure seldom stops you What stops you is the fear of

failure． 'You will never achieve a deeper understanding of your work ， or learn the tough lessons， if you are

liked or comfortable all the time．"

Using pictures from an orbiting spaceship ， scientists have discovered eight spots With huge ice deposits

（冰沉积物） near the Martian surface at the middle latitudes （纬度）， which is a possible source （来源） of

water that could help support future human lives．

While scientists already knew that about one-third of the surface of Mars contains skin-deep ground ice and

that its poles （极地） hold major ice deposits， the research published on Thursday described thick underground

ice sheets in an unexpected area．

"It was surprising to find ice exposed at the surface at these places ．In the mid-latitudes ，it's normally

covered by a blanket of dust，" said research scientist Colin Dundas， who led the study．

The findings showed that ice may be more available for use as water to support future human explorations ，

perhaps even the setup of a lasting Mars base ．The water could be used for drinking and possibly change into

oxygen （Oz） to breathe．

"Humans need Water wherever they go ， and it's very heavy to carry with you ．Former ideas for getting

human-usable water from Mars were to pull it from the very dry atmosphere or to break down Water-containing

rocks，" said scientist Shane Byme， a co-author of the study in the journal Science．

"Here we have what we think is almost pure water ice buried just below the surface ， Byme added，which

means you don't need a high-tech solution．

"You can go out with a large container and just collect as much water as you need．I think it's kind of a game-

changer． It's also much closer to places humans would probably land， compared with the polar areas which are

very unfriendly．'

3. What is Special about the newly found ice deposits on Mars？ ______

A. Thy are the first ice deposits．

B. They are the largest ice deposits．

C. They are found on unexpected areas．

D. They are the only source of drinking water．

4. Which is not a possible way of getting water on Mars？ ______

A. Changing oxygen into water．

B. Pulling water from the atmosphere．

C. Collecting water from ice deposits．

D. Breaking down water-containing rocks．

5. Why does Byme think the new finding is a"game-changer" in the last paragraph？ ______

A. It changes the way people play games on Mars．

B. It makes it possible for humans to land on Mars．

C. It makes it easier for humans to get water on Mars．

D. It changes people's understanding of the polar areas．

6. What is the best title for the passage？ ______

A. A new way to get water

B. A lasting Mars base is set up

C. Humans cannot survive without water on Mars

D. The Martian ice deposits could support humans

"We'll give you twenty-four hours to think about it，" Mom said as she handed me a list of demands（要求）．

Her skin was dark， having enjoyed three weeks of July sunlight， and she looked five years younger． Dad lay

on the overgrown grass， painting a new sign． He saw me looking， gave a cocky smirk（幸灾乐祸的笑），

and held it up： PARENTS ON STRIKE!!

It was their third week on strike and life in the house had gotten rough ． Dirty clothes piled up in the

hallways， with a horrible smell from the dishwasher． The eighty dollars a week Aunt Lynn gave Emmie and me

for food limited our grocery shopping to the 7-11 ， and the same meals every day left us bloated and half-

nauseous． Morn and Dad had taken the keys to the car ， leaving us to bike or walk our way across town on the

few nights we wanted to hang out with friends； we couldn't invite anyone over， not after the two person human

chain they had formed to block the front door had scared away my friend Chuck enough to keep him from coming

back． They had even managed to scare away Grandma， yelling "Scab! Scab!"when she tried to walk up the front

path with a few plates of fried chicken．

The mood inside the house almost matched the smell ． I blamed Emmie for pushing Mom too far with the

constant complaining about the vegetables in her homemade Cobb salads or the complaints when Mom bought

honeysuckle-scented shampoo instead of summer peach． She accused me， correctly， of not helping matters

when I allowed the grass to grow to an unacceptable length after Dad's repeated requests to cut it． This all came
