2、 A person who believes that he is incapable will not make a real effort, because he feels that it would be useless.
He won't go at a job with the confidence necessary for success. He is therefore 21 to fail, and the failure will strengthen his belief in his incompetence.
Alfred Adler, a famous doctor, had an experience 22 illustrates this. When he was a small boy, he was poor at arithmetic. His teacher got the idea that he had no ability in arithmetic, and told his parents what she thought that they would not expect too much of him. 23 this way, they too developed the idea, "Isn't it too bad that Alfred can't do arithmetic?" He accepted their mistaken estimate of his ability, felt that it was useless to try, and was very poor at arithmetic, just as they expected.
One day Adler succeeded in solving a problem which 24 of the other students had been able to solve. This gave him confidence. He rejected the idea that he couldn't do arithmetic and was determined to show them that he could.
His new 25 confidence stimulated him to go at arithmetic problems with a new spirit. He now worked with interest, determination, and purpose, and he soon became extraordinarily good at arithmetic.

8、The world is not only hungry; it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 75% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of this huge amount is seawater, 21 salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% of the fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes, underground, and other 22 .
And we can't even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of it has been polluted.
However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water,which is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need 23 water is increasing rapidly - almost day by day. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our previous water. One of the first steps we should 24 is to develop ways of reusing it.
Experiments have already been done in this 25 , but only on a small scale. The systems that have been worked out resemble those used in spacecraft.
