I recently heard a story about a famous research scientist who had made several very important medical breakthroughs. What set him so far apart from others?
He小题1:that, in his opinion, it all came from an小题2:from his mother that happened when he was about 2 years old. He had been trying to小题3:a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he lost his 小题4:on the slippery(光滑的) bottle and it 小题5:, making its contents pouring all over the kitchen floor.
When his mother came into the kitchen, instead of小题6:at him, giving him a lecture, or punishing him, she said: “Robert, what an(a)小题7:and wonderful mess you have made! I have小题8:seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to小题9:down and play in the milk for a few小题10:before we clean it up?”
Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said: “You know, Robert,小题11:you make a mess like this, you have to clean it up at last and restore everything to its proper小题12:. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge, a towel, or a mop. Which do you小题13:?” He chose the sponge and together they小题14:up the milk.
His mother then said: “You know, what happened just now is a小题15:experiment in how effectively to carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let’s小题16:out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can小题17:a way to carry it without dropping it.” The little boy小题18:that if he held the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it.
This scientist then小题19:that it was at that moment that he knew he didn’t need to be afraid to make小题20:.
Wouldn’t it be great if all parents would respond the way Robert’s mother responded to him?
