  Ⅲ.阅读理解

  A

  When students read articles about scientific discovery,they learn what worked.Scientists present the methods that got the best result.They often show only the results that are significant and important.What they won't show are the mistakes or failures that came first.Yet sometimes those mistakes pointed the way to success.

  It can take a long time and many experiments to achieve scientific success.Robbin,16,and Annabelle,15,learned that while working this summer in a biochemistry lab at Stony Brook University in New York.What's more,they learned that failure is not necessarily something to fear.

  "I like the idea of scientific research," says Robbin.It's the basis for "every lesson you learn in school and understanding everything you see in life".This summer,Robbin has been working with Lauren,a chemistry student,who is making new drugs to fight harmful bacteria.At first,the tests made Robbin anxious.She worried that she might be making costly mistakes.But Lauren reassured her that finding out what doesn't work is "just part of the learning process".With time,the teen got comfortable with the idea that every experiment wouldn't succeed.

  Annabelle also learned a lot about failure and success.She worked with graduate student Agnieszka Gil."Sometimes I try something and it takes a while for the experiment to run."This means that finding out whether Annabelle did something wrong can be a stressful waiting game,because "if you did something wrong you need to do it again".But she's now learning to be patient and not to expect instant success.

  In science,figuring out why something failed is what may just put them on the road to success.

  【语篇解读】 在阅读科学发现的文章时,人们往往对科学成就过度关心,其实科学成就往往是建立在无数次失败的基础之上的。Robbin和Annabelle在实验室里体会到了坦然接受实验失败的价值。
