Why is the sea salt?Long before we discovered scientific ways of thinking about it, we explained it in a story.Even though the answer isn't scientific, it holds some other truth in it--especially about the human heart.
Long ago, a poor old couple lived on the coast.One day, an old storyteller came to their village.The old couple gave him a meal.In return, he gave them a coffee mill（磨粉机）and said , "Say, 'Mill, please grind（磨粉）' and it'll make whatever you want, to stop it, say 'Mill, please cease（停止）grinding'."
Soon the old couple had a much better life.They'd been happy people, and they didn't need much more.But the young couple next door were never satisfied.When they saw the old couple wearing good clothes and buying good food, they burnt with envy（羡慕）.So one day, the young husband went to the old couple's house secretly and heard, "Mill, please grind hot chocolate!" He was surprised to see it coming out.
Then the young couple stole the mill from the old couple.With it they rode a horse and set off down the coast, where no one would know them.Along the way, the husband showed proudly and asked, "What do you want it to make?" "Oh, I don't know.Why not salt?" the wife said. "Mill, please grind salt!" he said. "It works!" the wife shouted.But then they noticed the salt went everywhere."Make it stop." the wife said.But the husband didn't know how. "Mill, please stop grinding! Please, no more!" His words didn't work.The mill kept grinding. Finally, the young husband threw the mill into the sea as far as he could.

①
Do you have a landline at home?These are phones that people plug （插入） into their living room walls. Mobile phones didn't use to be so common at that time, so most families had a landline.But landlines only worked at home.What did people do when they were outside and needed to call someone?They looked for a pay phone!Then, most people had their own mobile phones and many homes no longer had landlines.
②
People today store plenty of information online, or on SD cards.But in the 1980s and 1990s, people used to use floppy disks.
The first floppy disks were large, expensive, and not very useful -- each disk could store just 175 KB of information!Later, floppy disks got smaller and better.But even the best ones could only hold 1.44 MB.You would need three or four disks just for one song, and about 22, 000 disks to match the storage（储存空间）available on a 32 GB phone!

But photos used to be expensive, and people took fewer of them.To take a photo, you had to buy a roll of film.This allowed you to take about 30 photos.After finishing the roll, you left it at a shop.The shop developed the photos to make them be seen, which you could collect after a few days.

第二节 （本题共5小题, 每小题1分, 共5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
We all avoid failure(失败), and most of us fear it. However, without failure, progress would be impossible. What does success usually come after? Failure. It seems that one cannot exist(存在) without the other.
Accepting failure is not easy for many, though. We are often unwilling to accept failure because our professional fame depends on success. 46 In the past ten years, for example, some scientific magazines have published reports of failed tests. It is believed that scientists can learn from “negative(负面的)” results and that this can finally lead to positive results.
47 The ABN AMRO bank started an Institute(机构) of Brilliant Failures to learn more about what works and what doesn’t in banking. Similarly, Eli Lilly and Company had failure parties to study the drugs(药物) that don’t work.
In fact, one of the business world’s most famous failures became one of its biggest successes, in part because the product’s makers learned from their mistakes. 48 The product, though unique(独特的) at the time, was expensive and heavy; besides, some of its most important features(特点) didn’t work properly. As a result, it became one of Apple’s biggest failures, and in 1998, the company stopped selling it. However, Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, believed in the product and he began to find out ways of improving it. In time, this led to the production of the iPhone and the iPad, two of the company’s most successful products.
49 Not only should we try to learn from it; if we want to succeed, we must also be persistent(执着的). Though Apple stopped selling the Newton in 1998, the first iPhone wasn’t available until 2007. It took a lot of research and hard work to go from the Apple Newton to iPhone, but in the end, the effort became successful.
All in all, there is a lot we can learn by studying mistakes. Perhaps the most important lesson is that failure and success are two sides of the same coin. 50
A. One truly cannot exist without the other.
B. We are brave enough to face difficulties.
C. In the early 1990s, Apple created a phone called the Apple Newton.
D. The business world already understands the value of negative results.
E. The Apple Newton has won popularity with people all over the world.
F. However, things are slowly changing, especially in business and science.
G. The story of the Apple Newton can teach us an important lesson about failure.
