But things changed soon after that. 2. I was so hurt by my failure back then, and my friends were all worried. “Why not try something else, like swimming or skiing?” suggested my best friend.

Many teenagers face “growing pains” like failing exams, not being chosen for a team, or arguing with friends. These moments can make us feel sad, angry, or disappointed. But they are also chances to learn and grow. When we experience failure, we can choose to give up or to try something new. For example, if you don’t get into the sports team you wanted, you might find a new hobby like painting, music, or another sport. This can open up new doors and help you make new friends. Remember, no one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. The key is to look at challenges in the right way. Failure is just a temporary moment, and it can teach us valuable lessons that will help us in the future. 1. What are “growing pains” according to the passage? A. Physical pains in the body. B. Difficulties and problems while growing up. C. Only problems with school grades. D. Only arguments with friends. 2. What can we do when we face failure? A. Only give up and feel sad. B. Try something new and learn from it. C. Blame others for our mistakes. D. Pretend nothing happened. 3. Why is failure not a bad thing? A. Because it makes us perfect immediately. B. Because it teaches us valuable lessons. C. Because it means we will never succeed. D. Because it makes us popular with others. 4. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Growing up is easy and without problems. B. Failure is terrible and should be avoided. C. Growing pains and failure are part of life and help us grow. D. Teenagers should never try new things.  四、语篇填空（10空，每空1分，共10分） I had a really bad day. I 1.__________ (try) out for the basketball team, but the coach said I wasn’t tall enough.
