Value f Negative Results
We all avid failure, and mst f us fear it. Hwever, withut failure, prgress wuld be impssible. What des success usually cme after? Failure. It seems that ne cannt exist (存在) withut the ther.
Accepting failure is nt easy fr many, thugh we are ften unwilling t accept failure because ur prfessinal fame (名誉) depends n success 56 In the past ten years, fr example, sme scientific magazines have published reprts f failed tests. It is believed that scientists can learn mre “negative (负面的) ” results and this can finally lead t psitive results.
57 The ABNAMRO bank (荷兰银行) started an Institute (机构) f Brilliant Failures t learn mre abut what wrks and what desn't in banking. Eli Lilly and Cmpany had failure parties t study the drugs (药物) that dn't wrk.
In fact, ne f the business wrld's mst famus failures became ne f its biggest successes, in part because the prduct's makers learned frm their mistakes. 58 The prduct, thugh unique (独特的) at the time, was expensive and heavy; besides, sme f its mst imprtant features (特点) didn't wrk prperty. As a result, Apple's CEO, Steve Jbs, believed in the prduct and he began t find ut ways f imprving it. In time, this led t the prductin f the iPhne and the IPad, tw f the cmpany's mst successful prducts.
59 Nt nly shuld we ty t learn frm it if we want t succeed, we must als be persistent (执着的) . Thugh Apple stpped selling the Newtn in 1998, the first iPhne wasn't available until 2007. It tk a lt f research and hard wrk t g frm the Apple Newtn t iPhne but in the end, the effrt became successful.
All in all, there is a lt we can learn by studying mistakes. Perhaps the mst imprtant lessn is that failure and success are tw sides f the same cin. 60

六、任务型阅读 (每小题1分）
“If yu dn't believe, I'll call the plice.” is a lie that parents might use t get their yung children t behave. A new psychlgical (心理学的) study led by Nanyang Technlgical University, Singapre suggests that it has a relatinship with harmful results when the children becme adults.
The research team asked 379 Singaprean yung adults whether their parents lied t them when they were children, hw much they lie t their parents as adults, and hw well they deal with adulthd challenges.
The first questinnaire (问卷) asked these yung adults t recall (回忆) if their parents tld them lies abut eating, leaving r staying, spending mney and s n. Sme examples f such lies are “If yu dn't cme with me nw, I will leave yu here by yurself and “I dn't bring mney with me tday, we can cme back anther day”. Mst f them filled in “Yes”. The secnd questinnaire included questins that culd shw hw ften they lie t their parents when they becme adults. Lastly, these yung adults filled in tw ther questinnaires that asked them abut their psychlgical prblems and if they ften behave generusly and thughtfully.
Adults wh were lied t as children were mre likely t lie t their parents when they grw up: They als said it was much mre difficult fr them when meeting psychlgical and scial challenges.
Lead authr Seth Peipei frm NTU Singapre's Schl f Scial Sciences said, “Parenting by lying can seem t save time, especially when the real reasns behind why parents want children t d smething are difficult t explain. When parents tell children that hnesty is the best rule, but display dishnesty by lying, such behavir can send wrng messages t their children. Parents' dishnestry may finally destry trust and encurage dishnesty in children. ”
Our research suggests that parenting by lying is a practice that has negative influence n children when they grw up. Parents shuld understand these pssible risks and think f ther ways t replace lying, such as knwing children's feelings, giving specific infrmatin s children knw what t expect, ffering chices and slving prblems tgether, t encurage children t have gd behavir, said lead authr Seth Peipei.
