You are a wonderful provider and I prepared this dinner to show you just how much I love you even though you did not get the increase.” Suddenly tears swelled in Andrews eyes. Total acceptance!

Knowing and understanding what the weather is doing is useful.However, the weather is also one of the most unpredictable elements in the world. Although many people watch the morning news and gather the information about the weather, this is often wrong. Whole days can be ruined by believing that the weather will be one thing, when it turns out to be another. However, owning wireless weather stations allows the owners to monitor the weather for themselves.Not only will these weather stations allow the owners to see what the weather is doing, but it is personalized to them and their area. Wireless weather stations are specifically prepared for the immediate neighborhood. Plans will be able to be made, and important decisions will no longer be ruined by bad weather.Although these weather stations are typically seen in homes, they can also be used very easily on farms and fishing boats. Both farmers and fishermen rely on the weather for their business and using up-to-date weather information is quite indispensable. By using the wireless weather stations, it can determine for them when to harvest crops and head back to the shore. Due to the size of the weather stations, they can be moved very easily and used wherever is necessary for people.The wireless weather stations are great for all homes, especially for areas that suffer from extreme weather conditions.The up-to-date, instant weather reports will allow a person to monitor what the weather is doing and if the bad weather is heading in their direction. Extreme weather tends to e very quickly, therefore, any information that is received is helpful.The weather stations are very simple to set up and are run by solar panels（太阳能电池板）,ensuring they will work even if there is a power cut.

Or we read stories like that of Elizabeth Holmes, who developed a simpler, less painful way to test blood, which has turned her into the youngest female billionaire in the world.Creativity and innovation（革新）in the day-to-day life start with looking at things differently and taking on the perspectives(观点) of the others. After youve taken the view of the others, start testing. New perspectives on problems can give you lots of ideas about how to improve things, but until you try some of those ideas you will never know which is the right choice. Dont get stuck in analyzing all of your options without testing at least some of them first. If testing isnt really feasible（可行的）with your specific situation, talk to a number of different people about your ideas and problems.Once you have the data and feedback, give yourself some space to think. One thing we can learn from some of the great creative thinkers of our time is that they take time away from work to think and let their ideas develop. There is a story of Newton who mistook his watch for an egg and had it boiling while he was lost in thought in his workshop. Creativity and innovation arent just for the special few who are blessed with the insight into future. We cant all be like Henry Ford, knowing that while customers say they want faster horses, what they really want are powered cars. But we can learn to develop creative thinking in everything we do.Talk to others about your perspective and the importance of testing and feedback and show your passion for innovating in all areas to get help from them. That good mindset, along with your ability to follow through, will accelerate your success.51. What is the similarity of the great people according to Paragraph 1?A.

This mountain is located in Asia. Asia is the home to all five of the worlds highest mountains. Mount Everests peak is five and one-half miles above sea level. That is very high! Many climbers have tried to climb to the peak of Mount Everest. The first people to reach the peak were Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay. Since then, about 900 people have survived the climb to Mount Everests summit. One of the most successful climbers is Erik Weihenmayer.
