Knowing about yourself means not only that you find what you are good at and what you like, it also means discovering what you are not good at and what you don't like. Both help you to see your aim in life.
Although most students would be unhappy if they found that they had failed an advanced math course, they have actually learned a great deal about themselves. They know that they should not become engineers or physical scientists, and that they should not be good at accounting work. So failing can help a student to lead a much happier life if he or she draws the right conclusion from the failing. They may then decide on their aim and choose the kind of work they would like to do.
It is impossible to decide whether or not you like something until you have tried it. If you decide that you would like to play the violin, you need to take more than one lesson before you can know whether you have any interest or ability.
It's not enough to want to be a great violinist. You also have to like the hard and long training before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist but hate the work, forget it.
It's a good plan to try as many as possible when you are still young. And then you will come to a wise decision.

[ ]

Scientists think that a game like bowing was played in Egypt thousands of years ago.
Toys that look like a ball and bowling pins were found buried with a child who died around 5200 B. C.
People who study history know that the game was popular in Germany around 200~300 A. D. It was played by people in some churches in order to show that they were good Christians. When people bowled poorly, they had to go to church more often.
The first bowling place built inside a building opened in England in 1455. Then the game was taken to the United States where most people played it outside.
During the 1800s, many people in the United States began to bowl for money, so several cities made the game illegal. Many people kept on bowling illegally. A group named the American Bowling Congress (ABC) began around 1900. The job of this group was to clean up bowling and make it a gentlemen's game again.
At this time, the game was mostly played by men. If women played, they hung a curtain up so that the men were not able to see them.
Then, in 1916, a woman's group named the Women's International Bowling Congress (WIBC) made a point of showing that the game was fine for both men and women.
1．In which country did poor bowlers have to go to church more often?
[ ]
2．In the United States during the 1800s, ________.
[ ]
A．many people bowled for money
B．women never bowled
C．people discovered bowling
D．all of the above
3．Who was probably in the American Bowling Congress?
[ ]
A．People who bet money on bowling.
B．People who liked bowling.
C．People who bowled in church.
D．All of the above.
4．When did the Women's International Bowling Congress begin?
[ ]
5．Before 1916, what did women probably do when they bowled?
[ ]

In the forest or in the fields you can often see small hills of earth and busy little ants. Ants live in different places. An ant has two strong jaws to dig soil, to cut up food, to carry about the eggs or the young.
The head of an ant is triangular with two large eyes and sometime three more very small eyes. These eyes have many parts, so the ant can see everything that moves around it. Some of these eyes see things near it, while others can see things far off in the distance.
The ant has six legs. Its feelers have twelve joins; with them the ant finds its way in underground home. Some ants do not build nests, but make use of hollows under stones or logs. Others build their little hill with leaves, bits of wood, sand and earth.
