It’s been a problem at school several times too when teachers have told me something I didn’t want to hear. I used to feel it was my to stand up for myself.
One day in English class I was working on my homework when I heard a classmate behind me. It was Nathaniel，who liked doing that as usual.
I said ever so ，“Nathaniel，would you be quiet?”
Nathaniel kept saying something to himself. I quickly ，“Nathaniel，shut up!”
For the next five minutes，we threw hurtful words back and forth at each other.
“At least I don’t have an ugly lazy eye like you!”I cried out.
I knew this would make him and it would hurt his feelings and shut him up.
What I said filled him with anger. He tried to over my seat and catch me as he screamed，“That’s it!That’s it!”
at his reaction（反应），I sat back in my seat. I had never seen Nathaniel act like this before. Later on，we were taken to the teachers’ office. There，Mr. Black，our English teacher，told us to the matter. It wasn’t until then that I finally found that I hurt someone physically，the woulds finally heal（愈合）.But when I hurt someone with my ， sometimes the pain never goes away.
At the end of the discussion，I said to Nathaniel.
When I went back to my room，I spent some time praying（祈祷）.I began to how often what I said hurt others. But I believe that as I keep asking God to help me，he’ll tell me when to keep my closed.

In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In 26 way, failure may be a way towards success. The “Spider-story” is often 27 Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider 28 a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough 29 in the rock. He tried six times. On the 30 time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to 31 the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made 32 models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked 33 he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have 34 failures. Now I know 50,000 ways it won't 35”.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused 36 ？Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change? So things will go 37 next times.
Second, is the goal（目标 ） you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some 38 about what your real goals may be. Think about this question. “If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?" This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing any way.

“Mum, I want to make you a bet,” I said. “If I go a whole year without TV, will you give me a hundred dollars?”
“Well, if you can 1 do it, …”
“Of course I can,” I replied, trying to convince 2 .
In fact, all this started from my 3 of a picture in the newspaper. I couldn’t bear to look at that boy. He said that he had 4 one year without TV for a hundred dollars, 5 me with mocking eyes. It seemed he was saying, “I did it, 6 you can’t!”. I glared at the boy’s face.
That year I did a lot of things. For example, my father taught me to 7 , which became my favorite sport. 8 winter afternoons snowball wars with my neighbors offered daily drama. I went on bike trips with my friends and swam as much as a fish.
It was unbelievable how much 9 I had without TV. I learned so many new games. I guess the 10 thing I learnt, though, was self-motivation(上进心).
I started to do my homework. I went from a D student to an A student within a couple of 11 .
I used to 12 reading if there were no 13 , but now I began to read and enjoy it. I could arrange off all the pictures just the way I wanted them—my own little TV, right 14 my head!
I’m surprised what I did. I got a lot more from the 15 than just the 100 dollars!

Shyness(害羞) means feeling frightened when you’re around other people. Some children were 1 shy. Some become very shy later because of their life experience. 2, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just how much they feel shy.
Most people have red faces and talk in 3 sentences when they are shy. But some become 4 shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to 5 and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting 6 people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be 7 for a person.
If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a big 8. Some experts(专家) say shy people are good at working because they think more and 9 less. But remember not to let good opportunities(机会) pass you just because of it. If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or give some performances in front of others, just do it. There’s nothing to 10.
