Life is difficult. It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult. Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nations. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their natures, cause us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes endless serious problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yes, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious tests that tell us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to resolve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, "Those things that hurt, instruct." It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems. The main idea of Paragraph Three is that ______.

A. most people feel life is easy
B. the writer feels life is easy
C. the writer likes to complain about his problems
D. most people complain about how hard their lives are

Forty-thousand of the world’s young children die every day. This is 15 million a year. Many of these deaths can be prevented. In fact, experts say, techniques now exist to save the lives of haft of these children. The techniques are medically effective, simple to use and low cost. The biggest task has been to inform parents about these life-saving techniques. Diarrhea (腹泻) is the main cause of deaths among children in developing countries. Diarrhea results when the body tries to clear itself of harmful bacteria (细菌). The body does this by getting out liquids, sometimes uncontrollably. If too much water, sugar and salt are lost in this way, the body cannot work normally. The child may die. The United Nations International Children’s Fund, UNICEF, introduces a technique. It uses a simple mixture of sugar and salt in water. The mixture does not stop diarrhea. But if used often as needed, it keeps fluid (体液) levels normal until the body has fought off the harmful bacteria. In Egypt, for example, the treatment was used in a children’s health care program in the province of Alexandria. It reduced by one-half the number of deaths caused by diarrhea. The technique has now been used throughout the country. According to the passage, a large number of children can be saved only when ______.

A. the life-saving ways are medically effective
B. their parents are rich enough for the life-saving techniques
C. the life-saving techniques are easy to use
D. their parents learn the life-saving techniques
