　　A famous research scientist was being interviewed why he was so much more creative．

　　　　1　　 He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his balance and it fell, spilling its contents all the kitchen floor－a veritable sea of milk!

　　When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of yelling at him, she said, “Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge puddle of milk．　　2　　 Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?”

　　Indeed, he did．After several minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order．　　3　　 We could use a sponge, a towel or a mop．Which do you prefer?” He chose the sponge and they cleaned up the spilled milk．

　　His mother then said, “You know, what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle．Let’s fill the bottle with water and see if you can discover a way to carry it without dropping it．” The boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it．　　4　　

　　This scientist remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn’t need to be afraid to make mistakes．　　5

　　Some people think adults don't need to do sports, especially those who are strong and healthy．But in fact, sports are necessary．They can release(释放)pressure and teach us survival skills for life．Also they give us pleasure and teach us the spirit of teamwork．

　　Scientists believe that practicing sports can release pressure．I am used to swimming before exams, and after swimming, I find that I am relaxed and that helps me a lot in doing well in exams．Besides, students need good health．

　　Playing sports will teach you many skills that you need in life．For example, no one would succeed without competing with others．They also teach you how to accept failure and how to try again until you achieve your goals．These are exactly the things that people practice daily when they play sports．

　　Being healthy does not mean that you don `t need sports．Playing sports is helpful to us because it teaches us teamwork spirit．For example, I once was a shy and lonely boy．When I met a boy who loved playing basketball, step by step．I became a happy boy full of team spirit．That helps me a lot in my family and career life．

　　So it is not true that sports do not have advantages for all of us．And to get the most of the benefits, we should practice sports every day．
