We are humans，and we all make mistakes. The mistakes that we make are not usually on purpose，whether it is breaking a vase，or not completing a task. 【1】 This article will provide you with ideas as to what to do once a mistake has been made.

Admit that you make a mistake as soon as you discover it. Delaying it longer will only make you feel worse，or may drive you toward making the wrong decision to try and cover it up.

【2】 Do not play the“blame game"．Most people are smart enough to realize that this is just a poor attempt to protect yourself. Perhaps you gave a task to another person and it was never completed. But is it really the entire fault of the person you gave the task to or is it partially your fault for not following up? Keep this in mind before placing the blame on someone else.

【3】 Maybe you broke your mother's favorite vase，or even forgot a friend's birthday. Just an apology can sometimes be viewed as a“quick fix"，and apologizing and asking to be forgiven gives the person opportunity to forgive you.

Offer some compensation（补偿）for loss，damage，or injury caused. 【4】 By doing this，it may soften the blow to the person we've disappointed.

Learn from your mistakes. In the case of a job or a task，write a“to-do" list with the deadline before leaving the meeting. As for forgetting a birthday，put the birthday on an electronic calendar for next year.

Do better next time. 【5】We should try to understand what happened and try to make sure that it won't happen again.

A. Take responsibility.

B. Never repeat your mistakes.

C. Apologize and ask for forgiveness.

D. People’s faith in us can reduce quickly.

E. So sometimes it is necessary to write a letter to say sorry.

F. But not everyone knows how to admit making a mistake.

G. Offer to immediately complete the late task or pay for the vase.

试题分析：本文论述我们是人，我们都会犯错误，但是不是每个人都知道如何承认错误。并介绍了承认错误的方法。

【1】F根据This article will provide you with ideas as to what to do once a mistake has been made.可知这里想说但是不是每个人都知道如何承认错误。

【2】A根据Do not play the“blame game"．Most people are smart enough to realize that this is just a poor attempt to protect yourself. Perhaps you gave a task to another person and it was never completed. But is it really the entire fault of the person you gave the task to or is it partially your fault for not following up? Keep this in mind before placing the blame on someone else. 不要玩“怪游戏”。 大多数人都很聪明，能够意识到这只是一个保护你自己的可怜的尝试。也许你给了另一个人的任务，它从来没有完成。但是这真的是你给这个任务的人的全部过错，或者这是不是你没有跟上的过错？在把责任推到别人之前把这牢记在心。可知这里想说要负责任。故选A。

【3】C 根据Maybe you broke your mother's favorite vase，or even forgot a friend's birthday. Just an apology can sometimes be viewed as a“quick fix"，and apologizing and asking to be forgiven gives the person opportunity to forgive you.或许你打碎了你妈妈的花瓶，或者甚至忘记了一个朋友的生日。只是一个道歉，有时可以被看作是一个“快速解决”， 道歉、请求原谅是给人机会去原谅。可知这里想说道歉和请求原谅。故选C。

【4】G 根据Offer some compensation（补偿）for loss，damage，or injury caused. 74 By doing this，it may soften the blow to the person we've disappointed.可知马上要求完成推迟的任务或是偿还花瓶。故选G。

【5】B 根据Do better next time.下一次做得更好。 75We should try to understand what happened and try to make sure that it won't happen again. 我们应该试着去了解发生了什么并试着确保它不会再发生。可知这里想说决不再重复你的错误。故选B。
