　　　Plants are very important 　1　　　 things. Life could not go 　2　　 　if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. But animals and man cannot 　3　　 　so.

This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.

　　　If you look 　8　　 　at the plants around you, you will find that there are many types of plants. Some plants are large, 　9　　 　others are small. 　10　　 　plants are green. There are two sorts（种类）of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering（不开花的）plants.

　　　Flowering plants have roots（根）,stems（茎）,leaves, flowers and fruits（果子）. 　11　　 　all the trees around us are flowering plants. Flowering plants 　12　　 　make seeds（种子）. The sends 　13　by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds 　14　　 　. 　15　　 　example of a fruit 　16　　 　seeds is banana fruit.

　　　Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores（孢子）. Spores are small. Some spores are 　17　　 　small and 　18　　 　that they can float（漂浮）　19 　　 　the air. We may say that spores are quite different from seeds. When these spores 　20　　 　on wet and shady（阴凉的）places, they usually grow into plants.

Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a necessary 　31 of the learning process. But too often as parents and teachers we deny this same right to our children. We convey(传达) 32 　by words or by actions that failure is something to be ashamed of, that nothing but 　33　 performance pleases us.

34 I see a child under this kind of pressure ,I think of Jack. He is a shy, nervous perfectionist. He 　35 answered questions—he might be 　36 .

I try my best to 　37 his self-confidence. And I repeatedly 　38 　God for direction. But 　39 changed until midterm, when Mary, a student teacher, came to our classroom.

One day we were working with math problems. Jack had copied the problems with care. 40 with his progress, I left the children with Mary .When I returned, Jack was in tears. He’d missed the third problem.

At that time, Mary got a box 　41 with pencils from the desk we shared. “Look, Jack ! I’ve got something to show you.” she said.“ See these pencils, they belong to Mrs. Green and me. See how the erasers are 　42　 ? That’s because we make mistakes too. But we erase the mistakes and try 　43 . That’s what you must learn to do, too.” Jack looked up with 　44 in his eyes---the first time I’d see on his face that year.

Jack gradually believe him that it’s all 　45 to make mistakes – as long as you erase them and try again.
