In Canada you can find dogs, cats, horses, etc. in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections(注射) so that they won’t carry diseases. They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every kind of stores. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food.

When you visit people’s houses, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished. If an animal happened to get run over by a car, people would be very sad about it.

People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family ties are not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own life. Then the old will feel lonely. But pets can solve this problem. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.

Computers can help many workers. They can also help thieves.

There was one thief who worked in a bank of the United States. He paid for everything he needed by check. Then he told the computer not to take any money from his account for the checks he wrote. The bank’s computer did what he said. And it did not take any money from his bank account. One day the computer broke down. People had to do the computer’s work. They soon found out what was happening.

Another thief, who worked for a bank saw customers( 顧客)filling in deposit forms (存款單). Many of these people did not know their account numbers, so they wrote only their names on the forms. They left empty places for their account numbers. The thief wrote his own account number in this place. When the computer read these forms, it looked only at the account numbers. It did not look at the customers’ names. It paid the money on these deposit forms into the thief’s account.

Also there was the bank worker who told the bank computer to take ten cents off every customer’s account each month and put it into his own account. For a long time the bank’s customers did not notice that they were losing ten cents every month. But then someone did notice and told the bank. That was the end of that little game!

So many of us expect everything we do to be successful. We look forward to success to show us our value or to be the top of the group wherever we are. How many times in our schooling did we hope for a high mark? We want it and then feel like a failure when we don’t achieve what we want. Even when we succeed we still pass that and go onto the next success and then the next. We are not often taught how to face failures.

For me, failure taught me more than success did. Success is of the moment and temporary(暫時(shí)的)but failure means we have ever done. It makes me stop and think. It opened my eyes and brain to different possibilities. Failure is just a choice in redoing not in giving up. Experiencing failure,I looked deeper and further.

I have a grandson who plays hockey(曲棍球) and as all players do,he went through a slump. So I saw he was unhappy with himself. Then I said to him, “Why don’t you think of it differently rather than being unhappy?” And I asked, “Scoring is your goal, right?” He answered,“Of course.” “Why aren’t you scoring now? Do you need a readjustment(重新調(diào)整)?”All of a sudden he calmed down--he was thinking of what I had just said. So in the next game I saw him trying different things to do better. Later he started scoring. Now when something is wrong, he takes the time to think it over rather than just keeping the “failure” mode(方式).

Look at failure differently. Failure is what gives us power to try a different way of doing things.

It teaches us to rethink, redo, and then success will come about. Don’t give up but learn to use a different way.

1.According to the author,when we succeed we .

A. are quite proud

B. are usually wild with joy

C. usually set up a higher goal

D. usually think of our failure over and over

2.According to the author,failure .

A. is the thing that troubles people

B. is of the short term or temporary

C. makes us learn more than success does

D. can make him unhappy from time to time

3.What does the underlined word “slump” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Course of winning the game.

B. Chance of being well-known.

C. Situation where one works hard.

D. Time of losing heart or being upset.

4.Why did the author’s grandson do better in playing hockey in the end?

A. He grew up and learned more skills.

B. He thought and tried in a different way.

C. He used the skill his grandma taught him.

D. He didn’t make a change and kept the “failure” mode.

5.Which is the best title for the text?

A. Expect Success. B. Face Failures Differently.

C. My Grandson and I. D. Keep Failure Mode.
