However, we can not always get what we want and be the winner all the time. Some people cant help doubting, “ Are our efforts in vain?”The answer is “No”. We should remember that we are not only measured by how many goals weve reached, but also by how weve acted, which means the process(过程)is also important.Here is an example. Fruit is delicious. It takes trees a long time to bear it. In the process of growing, trees have to suffer from bad weather, insect bites and also intentional destruction(故意破坏) from human beings. So it is with us. Our life is like a journey. At the beginning, we set a destination（目标）, dreaming of it every night, but we should never forget that we spend most of our time on the journey. Unfortunately, many people only complain about the failure and then give up hope. In fact, it is failure that teaches us to be brave and stand on our own feet.I myself deeply believe that only those who have experienced a lot can own the highly-valued character; only those who have taken a lot of adventures can have the chance to succeed. As the saying goes, “No pains, no gains.” We are still young, still full of energy, so why are we afraid of failure and why do we hesitate(犹豫)to take an adventure?Young men, lets forget results, leave out pains, and just look forward and dont miss any chance on the journey!31 .

Scientists from Brown University in the USA believe that 40 million years ago, dogs were smaller and they looked like cats. They hid, ran after and killed other animals. As climate changed in the world, the physique(体型) and eatinghabits of dogs also changed. Thick forests that once covered North America started to become less thick as the earth became cooler. The appearance of grassland made dogs have fewer places to hide to hunt for food. To get used to the environment, they changed their ways of hunting and slowly grew longer legs. The scientists studied how dogs have changed themselves by looking at the elbows (肘部) and teeth of 32 different species that lived from 2 million to 40 million years ago. The scientists said that the dogs Bows greatly changed. Dogs from 40 million years ago had elbows that were more similar to those of cats.The function of the elbows was to allow the front paws (爪子)to catch what they could get and hold on to it. The elbows changed to allow dogs to become good runners and then they were able to run after other animals over long distances. Teeth in dogs also changed to be more useful. They became much stronger to be able to hold on to what they get.42 . According to the research, dogs looked like _ 40 million years ago.AcatsBlionsCtigersDpigs43 .
