  He must have been completely lost in something he was reading because I had to tap on the windshield to get his attention.“Is your cab available(可用的)?” I asked when he finally looked up at me.He nodded, then said apologetically as I settled into the back seat, “I'm sorry, but I was reading a letter.” He sounded as if he had a cold.“I am not in a hurry,” I told him.“Go ahead and finish your letter.” He shook his head.“I've read it several times already.I guess I almost know it by heart.”“Letters from home always mean a lot” I said.

  “This isn't family,” he replied.“Although it might just as well have been family.Old Ed was my oldest friend.In fact, we used to call each other ‘Old Friend'-when we'd meet.I'm not much good at writing.”

  “I don't think any of us keep up our correspondence too well,” I said.“I know I don't, but I take it he's someone you've known quite a while?” “All my life.We were kids together, went to school together and all the way through high school.” “There are not too many people who've had such a long friendship,” I said.“Actually,” the driver went on, “I hadn't seen him more than once or twice a year over the past 25 or 30 years because I moved away from the old neighborhood and you kind of lose touch even though you never forget.”

  “You said ‘was'.Does that mean…?” he nodded.“A couple of weeks ago.” “I'm sorry,” He didn't say anything more, and we rode on in silence for a few minutes.But I realized that Old Ed was still on his mind when he spoke again, almost more to himself than to me:“I should have kept in touch with him.” “Well,” I agreed, “we should all keep in touch with old friends more than we do.But things come up and we just don't seem to find the time.”

It’s good to make mistakes, and here is why.
First of all, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t”. Look around you. With very few exceptions, either everything you see in your physical world or every single detail of every single thing is the result of someone trying something new.
Another good thing about mistakes is this: When you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times, but rather had learned 10,000 things that didn’t work.
Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why?
Because when all is said and done, you will have tried some number of things before you succeeded. Every time you make a mistake you eliminate one of those things and are one step closer.
But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences of a mistake. Quite the contrary, when you try something new you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that in the event that it doesn’t work out the way you want it to, you will be in a position to try again.
We all have limited resources in the form of time and money so don’t blow them all on one approach to a problem. Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and allocate (分配) these resources appropriately so you can learn, make corrections, and try it again. Only by accepting and using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your business and your career.
There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not trying hard enough.”
So go forth and make mistakes. And learn. And grow. And prosper(成功).
【小题1】From the second paragraph, we can conclude that _______.

A.mistakes are unnecessary for development
B.we are afraid of trying new thing
C.it’s common for people to make mistakes
D.mistakes are better than not trying
【小题2】The underlined word “eliminate” means _______.
A.avoid B.remove C.acceptD.solve
【小题3】According to the article, one thing you should pay attention to about making mistakes is   
A.avoiding making the same mistakes
B.accepting the punishment willingly
C.taking consequences into account
D.trying things out one by one
【小题4】What would the writer probably suggest we say to ourselves when we make a mistake?
A.Never mind, I can always try again.
B.I’d better stay out of trouble.
C.Ok! Now I can learn something.
D.Look at this mess. Anyone would be upset.
