Each of us fails from time to time . If we are wise, having enough experience and knowledge, we regard these failures(失败) as a necessary and 31 part of learning. But often as parents and teachers, we don't 32 this right(权利) to our children.
Donnie was a third grader in my class. His 33 about failure kept him from classroom games that other children enjoyed. He 34 answered my questions — he was afraid of making mistakes.
I tried my best to build his self-confidence. But nothing changed 35 midterm, when Mary, a new teacher, came. She was young and pretty, and she was loved by every student 36 Donnie. It was her who made a big difference to Donnie later.
One morning , they were doing math problems at the blackboard. Donnie had copied the problems clearly and 37 . But he'd missed the fourth problems and began to cry with his head in his arms.
I didn't know what to do. Suddenly, a smile 38 on Mary's face . From the desk she got a box 39 pencil. "Look, Donnie," she said gently, kneeling(蹲在)beside him. "I've got something to 40 you." She remove the pencils, one at a time, and placed them on his desk.
"See these pencils, Donnie," she continued. " They 41 Mrs Landon and me. See how the erasers are worn(磨损)?That's because we make mistakes too. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That's what you 42 learn to do , too."
She kissed him and stood up, "Here," she said, I'll leave one of these pencils on 43 desk, so you'll remember that everybody makes mistakes, even teachers." Donnie looked up with 44 in his eyes and a smile.
The pencil became Donnie's prize. That , together with Mary's encouragement, gradually made him understand 45 the meaning of making mistakes is — it's all right to make mistakes, as long as you erase them and try again.
