10th grade Advanced. Unit 5. Project: The Role of Art in your Life
👉Communicative area: speaking about the role of art in your life

Topics for discussion: A great person said: “I haven’t failed, I have had 10 000 ideas that didn’t work.” How do you understand this logic?
Firstly, failure provides invaluable lessons. When an idea does not succeed, it offers insight into what does not work. Each mistake or failed attempt reveals flaws in our reasoning, gaps in our preparation, or areas that need improvement. For example, an inventor experimenting with a new device may find that certain materials or designs do not produce the desired result. Although the initial expectation was not met, the knowledge gained from the failure helps to refine the process and increases the likelihood of eventual success. Without these lessons, progress would be much slower, and we might repeat the same errors over and over again.
Secondly, persistence is a key factor in achieving goals. Edison’s own story demonstrates how crucial it is to continue trying despite repeated setbacks. Many successful people in history, from scientists to artists, have faced numerous failures before their breakthroughs. The process of trying multiple times builds resilience, determination, and patience. It teaches us to overcome disappointment and not give up in the face of difficulties. Without persistence, we might abandon our ideas too early, missing the opportunity to achieve something meaningful. Therefore, seeing failure as part of the journey encourages us to remain steadfast in our efforts.
Moreover, failed ideas can stimulate creativity. Every time an attempt does not work, it challenges us to think differently, consider alternative approaches, and innovate. The act of analyzing why something failed often leads to unexpected insights and discoveries. Sometimes, what seems like a failure at first may become the basis for a completely new and successful concept. For instance, penicillin was discovered accidentally when an experiment did not go as planned. This demonstrates that mistakes and failed ideas are often catalysts for remarkable inventions or solutions.
It is also important to recognize that fear of failure can limit potential. People who avoid taking risks may never discover what they are truly capable of achieving. Embracing the idea that failing is a natural part of the creative and learning process helps to reduce anxiety and encourages experimentation. By understanding that each failed idea is a lesson rather than a setback, we can approach challenges with confidence and curiosity.
In conclusion, the words of Thomas Edison remind us that failure is not the end but a necessary part of growth and development. Having 10,000 ideas that do not work is not evidence of incompetence; it is proof of persistence, learning, and progress. By valuing mistakes as opportunities and embracing persistence and creativity, we increase our chances of achieving meaningful success. True failure only occurs when we stop trying, surrendering to fear and frustration, rather than learning, adapting, and moving forward. The journey toward success is shaped not only by our victories but by the courage to pursue ideas despite setbacks.

Topics for discussion: Some people believe that any progress is the result of human laziness. Do you agree with this idea?
On the one hand, laziness can indeed inspire innovation. Many inventions were created to save time and effort. For example, the washing machine was developed so that people would not have to spend hours cleaning clothes by hand. Similarly, remote controls, dishwashers, and even online shopping exist because people prefer convenience over physical effort. In this sense, laziness can be a positive motivator, pushing people to find easier and faster ways to complete tasks.
Moreover, in the modern world, efficiency is highly valued. People often look for solutions that allow them to achieve more with less energy. This desire for comfort and speed can lead to significant technological progress. For instance, the development of artificial intelligence and automation is partly driven by the wish to reduce repetitive work. If humans were always willing to do everything manually, many of these innovations might never have appeared.
On the other hand, not all progress comes from laziness. Many great achievements are the result of curiosity, ambition, and the desire to solve complex problems. Scientific discoveries, space exploration, and medical breakthroughs often require years of hard work and dedication. The scientists who developed vaccines or explored distant planets were not motivated by laziness, but by passion and determination.
In addition, progress is often driven by necessity rather than comfort. When societies face serious challenges, such as climate change or food shortages, they innovate to survive, not to avoid work. For example, renewable energy technologies are being developed to protect the environment, not simply to make life easier. In these cases, the motivation is responsibility and urgency, not laziness.
It is also important to note that laziness can sometimes slow down progress. If people are too unwilling to make an effort, they may avoid learning new skills or adapting to change. True progress often requires persistence, experimentation, and even failure before success is achieved. Without these qualities, many important developments would never happen.
In conclusion, while laziness can sometimes inspire creative solutions and lead to useful inventions, it is not the main driving force behind human progress. Curiosity, ambition, necessity, and the desire to improve the world play a much bigger role. Laziness may open the door to certain innovations, but it is human determination and vision that truly move society forward.
1. What scientific achievements can our country be proud of?
Belarus has made significant contributions to science that deserve recognition. One of the most notable is the development of optical and laser technologies, widely used in medicine and industry. Belarusian scientists have also achieved success in space research, cooperating with international space programs and launching their own satellites. In agriculture, innovative biotechnology has improved crop yields and food quality. The country is also known for its work in IT and microelectronics, producing solutions used worldwide. These achievements show that Belarus, despite its size, plays an important role in global scientific progress.
2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of scientific progress?
Scientific progress has transformed our lives, offering both remarkable benefits and serious challenges. Advantages include improved healthcare, which increases life expectancy, and technological innovations that make communication and work faster and easier. Science also helps us understand the world, leading to solutions for global problems like climate change.However, there are disadvantages. Rapid development can cause environmental damage, and some technologies, such as artificial intelligence or genetic engineering, raise ethical concerns. Moreover, scientific discoveries can be misused for harmful purposes.In conclusion, scientific progress is a powerful tool, but its benefits depend on how responsibly humanity applies it.
3. Could you name outstanding Belarusian scientists?
Belarus has given the world many remarkable scientists whose work has influenced various fields. One of them is Zhores Alferov, a Nobel Prize winner in Physics for his research on semiconductors, which made modern electronics possible. Another is Ignacy Domeyko, a 19th-century geologist and mineralogist who made significant contributions in Chile. In medicine, Evgeny Orlov is known for his work in cardiology. These scientists not only advanced knowledge but also brought international recognition to Belarus. Their achievements remind us that scientific talent knows no borders and can inspire future generations to explore, discover, and innovate.
