The seeds are affected by the radiation ( 辐射 ) and low gravity in space. When they are brought back to the earth, these seeds produce vegetables that are bigger and healthier than normal vegetables. However, some people worry about eating space vegetables. They think that space vegetables might not be good for us and could make us get sick because of the radiation in space. However, people should not be frightened because space vegetables are very healthy. Here are some facts that you should know about space vegetables. Space vegetables are grown from seeds that are carefully chosen. When seeds are brought back from space, they are tested to make sure that they will be safe to eat.

Quite simply because no one tells us how to fail so that failure ( 失败 Most parents work hard at preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. When a child finishes making a table, the mother describes it as “ perfect” even though it doesn t stand still. Another way is to blame (责怪 ) others. If John fails in science, his teacher is unfair or stupid. There s a problem with the two ways. It makes a child unprepared for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time, and that it s possible to enjoy a game even when you don t win. A child who s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn t make the honour list on the baseball team, feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick consolations ( 安慰 ), prize or say, “ It doesn t matter.” Failure never gives people pleasure. It hurts both grown-ups and children.
