Life is filled with challenges. As we get older we realize that those challenges are the very things that us and make us who we are. It is the same with the challenges that come with .
When we are faced with a challenge, we usually have two . We can try to beat it off, or we can decide that the thing the challenge isn't worth the and call it quits. Although there are certainly when calling it quits is the right thing to do, in most all that is needed is and communication.
When we are committed to something, it means that no matter how or how uncomfortable something is, we will always choose to it and work it through instead of running away from it. Communication is making a for discussion and talking about how you feel as opposed to just saying what the other person did wrong. you can say to a friend, "I got my feeling hurt," "You hurt my feelings," you are going to be able to solve the problem much faster.
In dealing with the many challenges that friendship will bring to you, try to see them for they are: small hurdles you need to jump or on your way through life. Nothing is so big that it is to get over, and hurt only to make us stronger. It is all part of growing up, it to everyone, and some day you will all of this and say, "Hard as it was, it made me who I am today. And that is a good thing."

A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn't move. What was the 36 was that he found himself unable to ask for help ------ his mobile phone went out of 37__ as a result of exhausted battery. Nothing could be done but 38__ in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 39 of rescue.
It is almost 40__ that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 41_ ,“First of all I checked up my 42 condition and found myself not in fatal danger. As there was no 43 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 44 . In this way I fell lightly asleep. ”
His story put an end to my regret for the 45 of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men 46 to explore a mountain cave and got lost. 47_ to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 48 . Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the 49 people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 50 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 51 themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering ( 闪烁 ) far away.
Don't you think that you can compare it with 52 itself ? When you meet with difficulties in life, you are 53 in darkness. Mind you it's unclear yet and you needn't put up struggle 54 . It seems to be a negative attitude, 55 a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as great courage in the first place.

A wise man was visiting the Ganges, a river which flows through northern India, to take a bath. He found a group of family members on the 26 , shouting angrily at each other.

You can as well tell him what you have to say in a(n) 32 manner,” asked the wise man. Some disciples gave some other answers, but none 33 the other disciples. Finally the wise man explained, “When two people are angry at each other, there is a distance between their ___34 . To cover that distance they must shout to be able to 35 each other. The angrier they are, the louder they will have to shout to __36 that great distance. What 37__ when two people fall in love ?

The wise man 39 , “When they love each other even more, they do not __40 , but only whisper and they get even closer to each other. Finally they 41 need not whisper. They only look at each other and that’s 42 . That’s how close people are when they love each other.”
He looked at his disciples and said, “So, when you 43 , do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more. 44 there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to 45 . You may end up becoming enemies, for instance.”

Most young people 21 some form of 22 activity. It may be walking, cycling,or swimming, or in winter, skating, or skiing. It may be a game of some kind—football, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering. (登山运动) Those who have a 23 for climbing high and difficult mountains are often 24 with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to 25 cold and hardship, and to take 26 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the 27 between mountaineering and other forms of activity 28 which men 29 their leisure (空闲的) time. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no manmade rules, 30 there are for such games as golf and football. There are, 31 rules of a different kind which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from manmade rules 32 makes mountaineering 33 to many people. Those who climb mountains are 34 to use their own methods. If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game” .We should be mistaken in this. There are , it is true, no “matches” between “teams” of climbers but when climbers are on a rock face 35 by a rope 36 which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork. The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical 37. A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis 38 are in their early twenties. 39 it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skills and less waste of effort, and they certainly 40 equal enjoyment.
