The best thing about this type of learning, reflecting other people's strengths and shortcomings onto ourselves, is that we do not pay for the mistakes that are made. The only cost to us is the time that is needed to learn about and reflect on these lessons from other people' s lives.

　　As we all know, some mistakes can be ones which people cannot afford to make, for instance, a broken friendship or a financial loss. Thus constantly using other people' s

　　strengths and shortcomings to reflect upon ourselves makes us realize the costs of these mistakes and reduces

　　the possibility that we will make similar mistakes.

　　What can we do now to learn from others? By keeping our eyes and ears open. Be observant and able to realize

　　what strengths and shortcomings other people have. A lot of people in this world like to complain about their lives. Listen to them and make your own assessment ( 评估) and

　　from your own assessment, reflect upon your life and make improvements where necessary.

　　１. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT tree?

　　B. It is by reflecting on the lessons learnt by others that we can improve ourselves.

　　C. Only from those who have more knowledge than us can we learn.

　　D. Reflecting upon other people's strengths and shortcomings can help us make fewer mistakes.
