Don't try, won't succeed

Interest and fluency in Chinese language can be cultivated from young, provided that we adults see this language as beautiful and thus not despising it.
P1 gal was faced with a cloze passage of many words that I know she doesn't know. 
It was chosen by me on purpose. 
She started her protest that she doesn't know one word, two words...then I said, "Just do it. It's OK if you get it wrong."
Turned out that she could get all the answers right though for one blank, she guessed the answer and because she is not allowed to leave any blank, she got full marks.

Moral of the story?
No one needs to know the meaning of every word to understand a passage. 
Even we adults don't know every word!
Don't try, won't succeed. 
What is there to lose by trying?
Education is learning life skills.
I'm not satisfied with good academic results. 
I'm more interested in character building that inevitably produce long-lasting results.
Look far.
