I know that something you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work---your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star . 1.
The truth is, being successful is hard. You won’t love every subject that you study. 2. Not every homework assignment will seem completely relevant to your life right at this minute. And you won’t necessarily succeed at everything the first time your try.
That’s okay. 3. JK Rowling---- who wrote Harry Potter---her first Harry Potter book was rejected 12 times before it was finally published. Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team. He lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career. But he once said, “I have failed over and over again in my life. And that’s why I succeed.
These people succeeded because they understood the secret of success ---you can’t let your failures define you. 4. You have to let them show you what to do differently the next time. So if you get into trouble, that doesn’t mean you are a troublemaker, it means you need to try harder to act right. 5.
A. If you get a bad grade, that doesn’t mean you’re stupid, it just means you need to spend more time studying.
B. Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who have had the most failures.
C. You have to let your failures teach you.
D. You won’t get along well with every teacher that you have.
E. So many of you dream of being successful by hard work.
F. Failures can lead you to success.
G. Chances are you’re not going to be any of those things.

A team of scientists from University of Freiburg in Germany are developing a shoe with a sensor to automatically tie its laces(鞋帶)that could be taken off when users click their heels together.
It’s been 26 years since we saw them magically tightening Marty McFly’s Nike boots in the film Back to The Future.
Now,self-tying shoelaces could actually become a reality this year,proving right one of the film’s fantastical predictions for what 2015 would be like.
Engineers have designed a shoe that can automatically lace up,adjusting itself to the shape of your foot.
Simply slip the controller on and pressure sensors will tell the ‘smart shoe’ when your foot is in position,triggering(觸發(fā))a tiny motor in the heel that pulls the laces tight.
When you want to take off the shoes,you click your heels together twice and the motor will release a spring(彈簧)in the shoe’s tongue,which loosens the laces enough for you to slip them off.
And the invention doesn’t even need to be plugged in to charge or have its battery replaced because it runs on power generated by the swing of your foot as you walk.
Engineer K1evis Ylli,of the Institute for Micromachining and Information Technology in southern Gemany,said the shoes could help a variety of different people.
“One focus is that it could be used in shoes for elderly people who have mobility problems,”he said.“But it could also work for children,or as a lifestyle product.”.
The design,which is still in a prototype(雛形)stage,cleverly gets the energy of the foot’s swing when opposing magnets in each shoe move past each other. It then uses that power to charge a battery.An hour of walking is enough to tighten the laces once,and it requires no energy to undo the shoes because that relies on the spring alone.
1.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?
A.A fantastical prediction
B.A great invention in Germany
C.A shoe with self-tying laces
D.A popular lifestyle product
2.What can we learn about the shoes?
A.They can automatically take off.
B.They can adjust themselves to your foot.
C.They need to be charged once.
D.They have been in design for 26 years.
3.From the last paragraph we can know ____________.
A.the shoes have been put into use
B.the shoes need power to take off
C.the shoes promise to be popular
D.how the shoes work to produce energy
