With excitement and enthusiasm we started our small business. No longer were we 1 to have a weekly paycheck (工資). We now were on our own to 2 an income to provide us with the money to live. I was a little 3 about our ability to do this. But, Byron believed in our products, and believed in our ability to 4 .

We invested heavily in producing a number of products, 5　 none of them are popular with customers. The market gave us so heavy a 6 that we hardly made enough money to pay our expenses.

We now had our money 7 in the booth (貨攤) that we had rented for the summer and fall months. We had a lot of money 8 up in materials. So we did not have enough money to 9 our monthly bills. We were discouraged, and the thoughts of failure ran through our heads.

　 As we discussed our 10 , I happened to read the words by Mary Pickford: "If you have made mistakes... there is always another chance for you... you may have a 11 start any moment you choose, for this thing we call ‘Failure’ is not falling down, but 12 down."

　 The words strengthen my determination and Byron's 　13　 that we could succeed. We did fall down, but we were 　14　 not to stay down! So, we stepped back and refocused. We came up with new products using remaining 15 . We redesigned our booth. We reconsidered our pricing system. And, we started making enough money to pay our 16 .

　 If we had done nothing, if we allowed ourselves to "stay down", then we would have 17 . But we made the choice to learn from our 18 , and we moved forward with more determination. These words 　19　 a much better idea on failure ---- a chance for a fresh start! The most important point here is "choice" because you decide how you 20 your failure, you decide if you stay down.

Cutting meat production and consumption by 30 percent would help to reduce carbon emissions(排放) and improve health in the most meat-loving nations, scientists said on Wednesday.

Using prediction models, British and Australian researchers　 1 that improving efficiency, increasing carbon capture and 2 fossil fuel dependence in farming would not be enough to　 3　 emissions targets.

But combining these steps 4 a 30 percent reduction in livestock（家畜） 5 in major meat-producing nations and a similar 6 in meat-eating, would lead to "substantial population health benefits" and cut emissions, they said.

The study found that in Britain, a 30 percent 7 intake of animal-source saturated（飽和的） fat by adults would reduce the 8 of premature（過早的） deaths from heart disease by some 17 percent -- equivalent to 18,000 premature deaths reduced in one year.

In Sao Paulo, Brazil, it could mean as 9 as 1,000 premature deaths reduced in a year, they said.

10 the United Nations Food and Agricultural Organization, 18 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions are from meat production and experts say rising 11 for meat, particularly in countries with growing economies, could 12 livestock production up by 85 percent from 2000 levels 13 2030.

The scientists said global action was needed to maximize the benefits of cutting meat production and 14 , and that the environmental 15 "may apply only in those countries that currently have high production levels."

The study was 16 in The Lancet medical journal as part of a series in climate change and health 17 the Copenhagen global climate summit scheduled next month.

In a second study, British scientists found that increased walking and cycling, and 18 cars, would have a much greater impact on health 19 low-emission vehicles in rich and middle-income countries.

Andrew Haines, director of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and head of the research series, said delegates at Copenhagen needed "to understand the potential 20 impacts of their plans."
