Dear Editor,
Last Sunday, I went to the post office to subscribe（订阅）some magazines. I was there for half an hour and there was still a long line in front of me.
My turn came at latl. I quickly got everything done, and was ready to leave. Just then, someone came nearer to me. I looked up and saw him old and thin, with a dirty coat on him which has been worn out. I could see easily that he was a migrant worker（农民工）. Instinctively（本能地）I stepped backward. I was in my new red coat.
He told me he wanted to send some money home but didn’t know how to fill out the form. He asked me if I could help him.
“But you can ask the cashier（出纳员）.” After these few words, I froze into silence.
“I have asked her. But I still don’t follow her instructions. Would you kindly help me?” Just then, my mobile phone rang. It was an excuse to refuse him. I had my own business to do. Hopelessly and sadly, he gave up begging me and tried to find someone else who would lend him a hand.
As I stepped out, I became nervous about it. How could I refuse someone who was in need of help, especially such an old migrant worker? Was it because he was poor and dirty?
I want to say sorry to this migrant worker in this newspaper. It’s been on my mind for a long time. And I hope to feel better by doing this.

Joanne had planned to leave work early this afternoon, at three o’clock. But when she finally came out of her office, all the other conductors had already left. Now she was caught in a heavy traffic in central Birmingham at 5:30, and at 6:30 she was expected to be at a meeting.
At last, she arrived at her home. As she opened the door, she noticed something unusual about Sheba, a large dog. She could see easily Sheba was feeling bad and could hardly breathe（呼吸）. Joanne knew she would have to take her dog to the vet immediately.
“It looks like there’s something in her throat（喉咙）,” said Dr. Stern, “It shouldn’t take me too long to get it out.”
Being in a hurry, Joanne left the doctor with the dog and rushed back home. As she once more entered the house, the phone rang. Dr. Stern’s loud and worried voice was heard, “I want you to get right out of that house immediately. The police will be there any time now. Wait outside for us.” Joanne was surprised and afraid. She quickly ran into the street.
At that moment, a police car stopped outside the house. Two policemen got out and ran into the house through the still open door. Then the doctor arrived. Just then the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white-faced man, who, it seemed, could hardly walk. There was blood（血）all over him.
“I think he must be a thief,” said the doctor. “I knew he was there because when I finally removed what was in Sheba’s throat, and found it was three human fingers.”

In one way, it may be thought that failure is a part of life. In another, failure may be regarded as a step towards success.
The “spider-story” is often told as an example of this. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a hole on a hill from the English. He watched a spider（蜘蛛）making a web. Bruce is said to have got confidence from this and to have gone on to beat the English. Edison, too, the inventor of the light bulb（电灯泡）, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were you in high spirit then? What can you change so that things will go right the next time?
Second, is the goal（目标）you are trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question: “If I am successful in this, where will it get me?” This may help to prevent failure in the things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.
The third thing to remember about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, “You can’t win them all.”
60. Robert Bruce was mentioned in the passage to show that _________.
A. people who fail are not lonely
B. animals can help people sometimes
C. nature will help us if we are hard-working
D. confidence is important for one to be successful
61. Edison’s example show us that _________.
A. he liked to do other kinds of work
B. he invented many kinds of light bulbs
C. failure may be a way towards success
D. he was a man of many important inventions
62. If you are not sure about what success will get you, you’d better _________.
A. change your goal B. go on with your goal
C. not care for that D. work even harder on your goal
63. It can be learned from the passage that _________.
A. one should try not to fail B. one’s failure is another’s success
C. one should take failure seriously D. one should learn lessons from failure
64. This passage is mainly about _________.
A. two great men B. two sides of failure
C. ways to keep away from failure D. the right attitude（态度）towards failure
