Every day, life is made and lost. Every day, life goes on. Every day we experience some of the most important parts of life and may not even realize it: love, generosity, and perseverance. These values aren't just important to us; they make the world what it is. Scientists say that gravitational （重力的) force makes the world turn, but some people say that love makes it go round. Love can be found anywhere: in families, friends, even complete strangers. Even of you can't see it, you know it's there. Love may connect people all over the world, but what would the world be without generosity？ Whether after a national disaster, or a school fund-raiser, one thing is certain-it is better to give than to receive. Generosity is found everywhere and whether it's a large or small act, it makes a difference. Most of all, being generous is not something you need any qualifications for, but no matter what you do, it can make a difference. Sometimes, though, it takes effort to be generous, which leads us to perseverance. Founding a country, riding a bike, or finishing an essay, these are all finished with perseverance. Perseverance is the one thing that can help us achieve whatever we want. It is what helps scientists to discover cures for diseases, and athletes to become champions. You may fail, but every time you make a mistake, that's one less to make the next time. There is an infinite （无穷的) number of things we value, but without love, generosity and perseverance, we just don't think that our life or the world would be the way it is.

A. the world B. gravitational force. C. value D. experience

Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage？[ ]
A. Peseverance is the only thing that can help us to achieve success B. People don't understand the life they are experiencing at all C. We can find love in complete strangers sometimes D. What the world is like depends on gravity and love.
What would be the best title for the passage？[ ]
A. Success and Failure B. Three Values C. Endless Love D. Life Full of Hope
We find the passage conveys a（n) ___ attitude to us when we read between the lines.[ ]
A. negative B. positive C. indifferent D. worried

Is there a "success personality"-some winning combination of qualities that leads almost inevitably （必然 地) to achievement？ If so, exactly what is that secret success formula （公式), and can anyone develop it？ At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, inquiring into the attitudes of 1500 distinguished people selected at random （任意地) from Who's Who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is common sense. Common sense is the most widely possessed quality of the people surveyed. 79 percent award themselves a top score in this quality. And 61 percent say that common sense is very important in contributing to their success. To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has to remove extra ideas and get right to the key points of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way:"The key ability for success is simplifying. In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important." Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it？ The oil man's answer is that common sense can definitely be developed. He owes his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their-and your own-mistakes. Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success: knowing your field, self- reliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands out. If you develop these qualities, you'll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in Who's Who someday.

If You Make a Mistake, Don't Worry! Yeah, you may want to forget about them, but mistakes can be useful. Making a mistake doesn't mean it's the end of the world. In your real life you have to grow and mature, and you will experience some growing pains. You know you should have studied hard but you went out with some friends instead.
