China is working hard to deal with the contaminated(被污染的)milk products scandal（丑闻）, which has so far left four babies dead, a senior official with the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Sunday.
Dr Shigeru Omi, director of the WHO Western Pacific regional office, told a press conference that China is taking the issue "seriously".
"After admitting the problems, the Chinese government is very serious about the matter and I hope the situation will be brought under control as soon as possible," Omi said.
The WHO is assisting China in looking into the scandal but will not conduct its own investigations(调查), Omi said.
Globalization means the scandal that started in China is a problem for people around the world, he said.
"Every country can be affected, so the international community should work together to solve the problem," he said.
Since the scandal over the contaminated dairy products broke, 6,244 infants have fallen ill, 150 have been diagnosed with acute kidney failure(肾衰竭), and four have died.
Investigations have shown the babies were made sick by the presence of melamine （三聚氰胺）in milk formula（配方奶粉）. Anothony Hazzard, a food safety specialist at the WHO's Western Pacific regional office, said the decision by some countries to recall milk products imported from China was "reasonable".
"I think many countries decided on the recall, I think under this kind of situation when the picture is not yet clear, it a very reasonable position that countries take."

   There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external (外在的) result or a product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, and the foreigner who learns a new language—all these examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.

     By contrast (对照), the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they meet with new experiences and unexpected difficulties. In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept.

     In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to face the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability to grow. Do we see ourselves as quick and curious? If so, then we tend to take more changes and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think we’re shy and indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe. Do we think we’re slow to adapt to change or that we’re not smart enough to deal with a new challenge? Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.

     These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we do not face and overcome these internal fears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we stop growing. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.

In the author’s eyes, one who views personal growth as a process would __________.

A. succeed in climbing up the social ladder

B. judge his ability to grow from his own achievements

C. face difficulties and take up challenges

D. aim high and reach his goal each time

Which of the following can be viewed as the process of personal growth?

A. Our manager was always willing to accept new challenges.

    B. Little Tom won the first prize in the Speech Contest.

    C. Max picked up French while he was in Paris.
