No one likes to make mistakes.But a new study says organizations learn more from their failures than from their successes,and keep that knowledge longer.
One of the researchers was Vinit Desai,an assistant professor at the University of Colorado Denver Business School.He worked with Peter Madsen from the Marriott School of Management at Brigham Young University in Utah.
They did not find much long-term "organizational learning" from success.It is possible,they say.But Professor Desai says they found that knowledge gained from failure lasts for years.He says organizations should treat failures as a learning opportunity and not try to ignore them.
The study looked at companies and organizations that launch satellites--and other space vehicles.Professor Desai compared two shuttle flights.
In two thousand two,a piece of insulating(隔熱的) material broke off during launch and damaged a rocket on the Atlantis.Still,the flight was considered a success.
Then,in early two thousand three,a piece of insulation struck the Columbia during launch.This time,the shuttle broke apart on re-entry and the seven crew members died.NASA officials suspended all flights and an investigation led to suggested changes.
Professor Desai says the search for solutions after a failure can make leaders more open-minded.He points to airlines as an example of an industry that has learned from failures in the past.
He advises organizations to look for useful information in small failures and failures they avoided.He also urges leaders to encourage the open sharing of information.The study appeared in the Academy of Management Journal.
The mistakes we learn from do not have to be our own.We recently asked people on our Facebook page to tell us a time they had done something really silly.
Fabricio Cmino wrote: Not long ago I wanted to watch TV,but it wouldn't turn on,so I did everything I could to start it.Thirty minutes later my mum showed up and,passing by,said to me "Did you try plugging it'? I’m just dusting,Mum!”So she wouldn't notice how dumb I am sometimes!
Bruno Kanieski da Silva told about a time he looked everywhere for his key.It was in his pocket.He wrote: I always promise I will never do it again,but after-a few weeks,where is my wallet? For sure it will be in a very logical place.

Tips for Getting the Most out of a “Photo walk”
Photo walks are a great way to get out and get clicking, either by yourself, with a couple of friends, or with a group of people. They can be wonderful for seeing a neighborhood or wild space with new eyes, getting inspired to be more creative with angles and subjects, as well as simply spending time with fun people. Here are a few tips for making sure you get the most out of a photo walk.
Pick a spot with lots of interest
A photo walk is a perfect excuse to go exploring a new area. However, if you’ve never been to the scene before, you might be disappointed at the final photos. Base your chosen spot on what you feel like photographing---whether that is buildings, people, busy streets, a festival, nature and so on, and make sure the place you’re heading for is filled with what you most want to shoot. It will pay off in a satisfying walk if you research your chosen spot beforehand and know what to expect.
Invite anyone, no matter what their skill level is
You’ll be surprised at what you learn from people who seem to know nothing about photography. Even with a simple camera, they can catch some outstanding photos. So bring Aunt Betty or your 10-year-old nephew or anyone else whose company you might enjoy on a walk and keep an open mind.
Don’t forget them
Be sure to take the important small things, such as an extra memory card (or two), an extra fully charged battery, comfortable shoes and clothing. And remember a notepad and pen for taking down notes about places, times, conditions, the names and information of people you meet and any other information you might want to remember about certain shots.
Keep an eye out for danger
Apart from watching the sky for rain, you’ll want to watch out for other people as well. Smartphones are always a target for thieves but they have become much clearer about the value of digital cameras. Don’t make yourself a target by standing for a very long time holding your camera out in front of you. If you’re in an area that is really busy or you aren’t super comfortable, then just be careful about when to use your camera. Imagine your shot in your head before holding up your camera, or use a camera belt wrapped around your wrist or shoulder.
1.To choose a place for a photo walk, you are suggested to _______.
A. spend time discussing with fun people
B. decide the place on your interest
C. choose famous places
D. find a new area
2.The people you go photo walking with _______.
A. must know the area well
B. have learned photography
C. would like to explore the places for you
D. enjoy walking with you and keep an open mind
3.You are supposed to hold the camera around your wrist or shoulder in case _______.
A. it is stolen by a thief
B. it gets wet in the rain
C. it loses some information
D. it falls down on the ground

Why are so many people afraid to fail? Quite simply because we forget that failure is part of the human life and that every person has the right to fail. Every person is able to fight failure and finally succeed.
Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards(標(biāo)準(zhǔn)). When a child finishes making a table, the mother describes it as “perfect” even though it doesn’t stand still. Another way is to blame others. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.
There’s a problem with the two ways. It makes a child unprepared for life in the real world. Young children need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time, and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child often feels terrible, of course, when he is not invited to a birthday party, or is not chosen into a football team. But parents should not say “It doesn’t matter.” quickly. The young should be allowed to experience failure and be helped to come out of it.
Failure never gives people pleasure. It hurts both adults and children. But it can be really good to your life when you learn to use it. You must learn to ask “Why did I fail?” Don’t blame anyone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong and how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about asking them. Success just repeats what has been done. It is not as good a teacher as failure. You can learn how to give a good party from an unsuccessful one.
1. How do most parents prevent their children from failure?
A. They give them some presents.
B. They don’t tell them that they have failed.
C. They don’t blame others.
D. They help them to come out of failure.
2.Which of the following does a person need to learn when he fails?
A. It’s impossible to enjoy a game if he misses it.
B. He is the worst of all.
C. It’s natural not to win a game and no one can win all the time.
D. His teammates are not good enough.
3.Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Learning from Failure
B. Ways of Preventing Failure
C. Reasons of Failure
D. Getting Pleasure from Failure
