[1]Everyone makes mistakes. How do you react when a family member, friend, or a classmate makes a mistake? Some of us may shout out , complain, or punish. Unfortunately, these reactions to mistakes sometimes greatly hurt both sides. In fact, there is a better way to deal with a mistake.
[2]Reframe（重组） "MISTAKE": Change "MISTAKE" into "MIS-TAKE." Doesn’t that have a different feeling? Therefore, a mistake is not so bad as expected. We can learn from it and it is likely to lead to success in the end.
[3]Use mistakes as an opportunity for learning. Most of us want to hide our mistakes, but we may be more willing to share our "MIS-TAKES" and let others learn from them. Either an individual or a family can benefit by openly recognizing and correcting mistakes, rather than pretending that they didn’t happen. In fact, a mistake, if corrected quickly and in a creative way, can become for learning.
[4]Think of mistakes as opportunities to prove yourself. A mistake becomes an opportunity to create a close friend or customer. For example, in business, studies show that one of the things all customers want is recovery when the organization has made a mistake. They want us to apologize sincerely. With creative thinking, we can make them satisfied with the way we deal with a mistake.
[5] We have learned to allow people around us to make mistakes. Now give them “protection” when they make a mistake. If you give people both permission and protection, you will get along well with them. Show them how they can turn a mistake into learning something about themselves so they don’t make the same mistake again.

There 17 （be） a dramatic rise in the number of extreme weather events over the past 20 years， 18 （cause） largely by rising global temperatures，according to a new report from the United Nations．From 2000 to 2019，there were7,348 major natural disasters around the world， 19 （result） in USD2,970 billion in economic loss．Much of this increase can be due to climate change．The findings show a critical need 20 （invest）in disaster prevention.
Sam is an in-real-life streamer（播主），and he live streams himself just going about his day．While riding his bike home 14 a cold night，he came across a sad-looking elderly woman wandering the streets by herself．The poor woman wasn't able to give him any information about 15 she lived．Sam walked her to a nearby convenience store so that she could 16 （safe） wait for the police to take her home．
Why do we dream？Scientists aren't completely sure，and they have diverse 11 （idea）．Dreams might be a side effect of memory making．When you sleep，your brain sorts through everything 12 happened during the day，trying to link new experiences to old memories. As it 13 （connect） things，your brain tums them into a story，and you get a dream．
A comprehensive study of 4，500 children conducted by the National Institutes of Health in 2018 shows that children who spent more than seven hours a day staring at screens showed evidence of premature thinning of their brain's cortex the outer layer that processes sensory information． "We don't know if it （1） （cause） by the screen time． We don't know yet if it's a bad thing． It won't be until we follow them over time （2） we will see if there are outcomes that are associated with the differences that we're seeing in this single snapshot，" Dr． Gaya Dowling． "What we can say is that this is（3） the brains look like of kids who spend a lot of time on screens． And it's not just one pattern．"
The problem isn't just screens （4） ， but also the way screens tempt kids （and adults） away from something far more important： physical activity． More than 23 percent of adults and 80 percent of adolescents don't get enough physical activity， and according to a 2019 report from the World Health Organization （WHO）， these patterns of activity and rest arise （5） habits we develop early in life． "What we really need to do is （6） （bring） back play for children，" says Dr． Juana Willumsen， a WHO specialist in childhood obesity and physical activity， in a statement about new WHO guidelines issued in April 2019． "This is about making the shift from sedentary time to playtime， while （7） （protect） sleep．" Of course， children aren't completely to blame for their screen addiction．
Sometimes， the parents （8） complain about the role of screens in family life are just as guilty of spending too much time in front of one． A 2016 study （9） （conduct） by Common Sense Media found that parents spend up to nine hours a day in front of screens， mostly not for work﹣related reasons． While 78 percent of parents said they believed they were good screen time role models， the study found a disconnect between their behavior and their perception of their behavior． Parents need to limit screen time for themselves and especially for their kids（10） it means playing the bad guy． Our mental and physical health depends on it．
In the presence of animals
A professor of public health at UCLA says that pet ownership might provide a new form of health care． As far back as the 1790s， the elderly at a senior citizens' home in England （1）
（encourage） to spend time with farm animals． This would help patients' mental state more than the cruel therapies（2） （use） on the mentally ill at the time． In recent years， scientists have finally begun to find proof（3） contact with animals can increase a sick person's chance of survival and have shown （4） （lower） heart rate， calm upset children， and get people to start a conversation．
Scientists think that animals' companionship is beneficial （5） animals are accepting and attentive， and they don't criticize or give orders． Animals have the unique ability to be more social． For example， visitors to nursing homes get more social responses from patients when they come with animal companions．
Not only do people seem （6） （anxious） when animals are nearby， but they may also live longer． Studies show that a year （7） heart surgery， survival rates for heart patients were higher for those with pets in their homes than those without pets． Elderly people with pets make fewer trips to doctors than those without animal companions， possibly because animals relieve loneliness． Staying with animals is believed to create a peaceful state of mind，（8） （result） in a favorable environment for everyone．
Research confirms that the findings concerning senior citizens can be applied to restless children． They are more easy﹣going when there are animals around， with （9） company they tend to calm down more easily． They involve （10） in playing with animals and the presence of animals conforms them greatly．
