Group discussion
In your view, which of the aspects is most likely to make an explorer
remarkable? Express your opinions following the template below.
In my view, grit is most likely the quality that makes an explorer remarkable. Grit is passion and perseverance for long- term and meaningful goals. For example, the search for a COVID-19 vaccine was uncharted research territory for scientists around the world in 2020. Researchers, or explorers in this metaphor, must conduct numerous experiments and overcome countless challenges to develop a vaccine, which is the best hope for an end to the pandemic. Without their constant efforts, they wouldn’t have successfully developed
effective vaccines against coronavirus. So I think grit plays the most
important role in making an explorer remarkable.

• How do Chinese people deal with failure?
In China, as the old saying goes, failure is the mother of success.
People believe failure teaches success. If we look back to Chinese history, we will find that despite great hardship, Chinese people have always chosen to face up to the failures and learn from failures instead of yielding to failures. It is the great spirit that makes Chinese people a strong and resilient nation.

• What is your perception of failure?
From my perspective, what really counts is not failure itself, but
it is the lesson that actually matters. Since life is full of ups and downs, we can’t avoid failures completely. When I feel frustrated or upset, I try to figure out the reason that results in the failure and learn from the failure. So it is significant to hold the correct and positive attitude so that you can face up to it ,learn from it and make adjustment according to it.
