We have enough milk, more milk than we can cope with in the Western World. And also that milk __8__was transformed into dried milk powder and then taken back to this country to help feed children who were suffering from malnutrition.

One of our main arguments is that we in Western countries actually have part to play in causing the __1__problems of the Third World. Many Third World countries are saddle with immense debt burdens, for __2__example. They were lent money with low interest rates __3__in the 1970s, when money flooded into Western banks from the oil-producing countries and was lent out to the Third World. The interest rates have then been risen __4__dramatically. So you have a situation where a country in many cases can’t even repay the interest, letting alone __5__the capital, on the debt. And I suppose the best example from what I have come across is a country in West Africa where the consumption, the local consumption of peanuts was banned, because peanuts, if they are imported can bring in a great deal of foreign income. __6__

The peanut is a major source of protein in this country.So you have people go hungry as a result of that. __7__The peanuts were exported to Great Britain and the United States to feed our cattle. Those cattle then produced a surplus of milk which we do not know what to do with.

We have enough milk, more milk than we can cope with in the Western World. And also that milk __8__was transformed into dried milk powder and then taken back to this country to help feed children who were suffering from malnutrition. So that’s the kind of insanely __9__economic relationship that we have got ourselves in __10__the Third World.

mportant medical achievements. A newspaper reporter interviewed him why he was able to be so much more creative than the average person. What set him so far apart from others？

He responded that it all came from an experience with his mother that occurred when he was about two years old. He had been trying to remove a bottle of milk from the refrigerator when he dropped the slippery bottle, spilling its contents all over the kitchen floor—a real sea of milk!

When his mother came into the kitchen，instead of shouting at him, giving him a lecture or punishing him, she said,“Robert, what a great and wonderful mess you have made! I have rarely seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been done. Would you like to get down and play in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up？”

Indeed, the boy did. After a few minutes, his mother said, “You know, Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to clean it up and restore everything to its proper order. How would you like to do that？ We could use a sponge(海绵), a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer？” He chose the sponge and together they cleaned up the spilled milk.

His mother then said, “You know，what we have here is a failed experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two tiny hands. Let’s go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can find a way to carry it without dropping it.”The little boy learned that if he grasped the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could make it. What a wonderful lesson!

This famous scientist then said that it was at that moment that he knew he didn’t need to be afraid to make mistakes.
