Failure(失败) is everywhere in our daily life. Students may fail in exams, scientists may fail in their research work, and players may fail in matches. Although failure happens to everyone, different people’s attitudes(态度)towards failure are different.
Some people don’t think that their failure is an important thing at all. So they pay no attention to it. As a result, they will have the same failure later. Some people lose their hearts in everything after they get a failure, and they think themselves are fools. At last, they may really be fools as they have thought.
Other people are quite different. Instead of being hopeless, they draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced(经验丰富的).
After hard work, they will be successful in the end. So we should draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced.

‘USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?’ We often hear such discussions. As China opens its door, it is a dream for many Chinese students to study abroad. They want to learn about the outside world.
It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Their foreign language skills will be improved and it may be easier to find jobs.
But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language.
Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad running into an ocean of difficulties and giving up finally. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.
Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担)to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?
We know that there are many famous people who have achieved success through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there, but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympic Games. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, think again.
