Everybody makes decisions in daily life. Some of them are as 1 as what you will eat for breakfast while others can be as important as what you will do in the future. And the decision that you make can even be a turning point of your life.
I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3.
Before I made that decision, I was just one of the boys who tried hard to act as a/an 2 . I didn’t listen to my parents or teachers, thinking it was a way to 3 my independence (独立). But soon my grades were getting poorer. Then came the high school entrance exam.
At the turning point of my life, my mom wanted to have a talk with me. In fact, I wanted to 4 her but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldn’t. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. 5 thinking too much I just said I would study hard.
Mom smiled and asked again, “What do you want to do?”
I never 6 thought about the question. So I kept silent.
“ 7 you want to go on studying or start to do something differently,” she went on, “it is your own decision. Remember, it is you who decide your life, not anyone else.” Mom said with tears in her eyes.
For the first time in my life I was 8 to make a big decision by myself. I was left alone and thought about my future.
I have made the biggest decision so far in my life—I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To 9 that, I needed to study hard.
The path to my future became 10 to me. I didn’t act rebelliously (叛逆地) any more. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard.

Hi! My name is Adam and I’m a freshman in senior high school. Going from junior high school to senior high school is a really big difficulty. The first week was a little 1 .
First, I had to think very carefully about which 2 I wanted to take. I spent hours looking through the course list, marking possible choices with a yellow marker and crossing out (删掉) ones that didn’t 3 my schedule, until my desk was covered in crumpled notes. The school adviser helped me choose the suitable ones: Maths, English, Chemistry, World History, and Chinese. I know that Chinese is a very 4 language, but I hope to be fluent and get an A when I graduate. My adviser recommended I sign up for advanced literature since I like English and I’m good at it.
I had to choose extra-curricular activities, too. I tried to join the school football team, but the coach told me that I didn’t play well enough. During the tryout, I 5 an important pass that would have made a goal. The coach said I had courage but needed more practice, which hurt more than I wanted to say. There is no doubt that I was unhappy, but I won’t stop trying. I’ll find a way to 6 on my own so that I can make the team next year.
I joined a volunteer club instead. Every Wednesday, we work at a soup kitchen and 7 food to homeless people in the community. Last week, I was serving hot soup 8 the old man began telling me his army stories, and the work suddenly allowed me to meet more people from different backgrounds.
I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and get used to being responsible for a lot more. I’m a bit worried about keeping up with the other students in my advanced course, 9 since some of them already seem to know the material really well, and it’ll be quite difficult to get used to all the homework. Still, I’m 10 to be here. Studying hard isn’t always fun, but I’ll be well prepared for university or whatever else comes in the future.

In my early years at school, I had trouble with some subjects. I used to be a naughty boy in class and get really 1 grades. It came as no surprise that I would get an F and that would make me really 2 . So what I used to do was cover those grades up—I would turn the F into a B just to 3 my parents. Well, it didn’t work. Later, I knew I had to 4 that failure and learn from it, and something good really came from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B naturally, and that B turned into an A.
Since we were little, we’ve been taught to believe failure is really a 5 and that we must feel sorry and guilty when we fail. So we work hard to 6 commonly-believed success and stay away from failure.
However, this is a completely 7 idea. Life is full of ups and downs. From being a kid to growing into an adult, you will fail at many things in life. So it is impossible to pay no attention to it. It is OK when failure happens. In fact, it only tells you about yourself. You get to learn about your 8 abilities, what you are good at, and what you are not.
Whenever you 9 a failure, never think that you are never going to get over from this. You must come up with ways to better yourself. Did you know Bill Gates failed many times? Even his first company was a complete failure. J. K. Rowling was 10 many times before her Harry Potter was published. So you must learn from your failures, not run from them!
As Winston Churchill puts it, success is not final, failure is not fatal. And it is the courage to continue that counts.

“Now,” Coach Fisher’s voice cut. “Remember— run through the finish line!”

BANG! The race began. Kenny had a good start and pushed his body to the limit. Go, go, go!
Wind hit his face. Other runners became shadows. Kenny felt as if he was flying. Push, push, push. Was he 7 ? He leaned forward. Don’t run to it, run through it. He felt the tape snap across his chest. He’d done it! He’d won!
It was a personal record but it didn’t feel as good as he 8 . Kenny looked at the medal in his hand. The round gold medal felt heavy and cool in his hand. He wanted to 9 it to someone... but that someone wasn’t there.
“Nice race, Kenny,” Coach Fisher said. “By the way, would you go check the top stand before we leave?”
Climbing up, Kenny suddenly stopped. At the top of the stands, taped to the bag above the last row, was a small handwritten sign. It said simply, I was here. 10 of you.

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten (幼儿园) teacher? I do. Her name is Mrs. White. And I remember I thought she must be a sister of Snow White because she had the same bright blue eyes, short dark hair and fair skin 1 Snow White.
I don’t remember much about what I learned in her class. My mother once told me that I used to 2 a lot. I would bring back what I wrote and she would read it. There are so many 3 but no red corrections and always a star. Sometimes even a “Good” would make my heart full of happiness. One day, my mother went to meet Mrs. White for one of the parent-teacher activities. Then she asked Mrs. White why she never corrected my spelling or pointed out grammatical mistakes.
“The children just 4 to get excited about using words and making sentences. I don’t want my students to lose 5 because of red crosses. Spelling and 6 can wait, but the wonder of words won’t...” Mrs. White said.
I remember that the time I spent learning in kindergarten was very happy for me. As I grow up, I 7 want to know many things and love my life. I look back now and think Mrs. White must be such a(n) 8 teacher that she used as few red crosses as possible.
I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot, and could never remember that the “e” goes before the “a”. It made my teacher in high school angry. She asked me to use “pretty” instead when I was writing. I didn’t listen to her. In my eyes, “pretty” is easier to spell, 9 it doesn’t hold as much meaning as I mean sometimes.
Thanks to Mrs. White, I have never 10 writing what I meant, even if I couldn’t quite spell it. I believe life may not be pretty, but it should be meaningful.

When I was a little child, I always wanted to be as close to my brother as he was with his friends. When Matthew first heard he’d have a brother, he was excited. 2 when I was born and he got to know that I was a girl, he felt sad. He even hid in his room for days, 3 to see me. As I learned to walk, my brother was a fourth grader. I would wait for him to come home from school every day. I followed him everywhere and asked him endless questions. “Why is the sky blue?” “Where do birds sleep at night?” To him, I was just a 4 little sister. He often told me to be quiet, but I never stopped. However, he was always there to hold my hand when I crossed the street.
5 later, Matthew invited me at once to visit him at college after I said I missed him. In his room, he handed me a drink. We talked in our usual way—few words but deep understanding. He always saw my 6 and became my support.
Once, when our family left me out of holiday plans because I had to attend my music classes, Matthew refused to go without me. We 7 together, just the two of us. On the cold November evening, we sat on the floor, sharing a 8 meal with just one hamburger each but much laughter.

When we finally got out safely, I 9 I needed to protect him too. We smiled, understanding our bond had changed. This time, it was my turn to be his 10 . I held his hand as we walked back to the road. Luckily, we understood each other better, facing challenges together with renewed trust and care.

In the 7th grade, I was known as the “smart girl”—the girl who always got the highest grades. No one really expected me to be good at 1 .
In PE class, we played volleyball and I was one of the 2 players on my team. I worried the whole time that the ball would hit me on my 3 . Every time the ball came my way, I would just duck (低头) and move away.
“Kelly, not all people are 4 to play sports. And that includes you. You should just keep studying to get high grades,” one of my classmates said. I was 5 but I didn’t say anything. Deep down, I believed he was right.
One day during the break, I saw a few girls playing soccer happily. I decided to give it a try and asked a girl 6 I could join them. “You want to play soccer?” she laughed. “OK. But you have to be on the other team. I don’t want my team to lose.”
7 the other team accepted me and the captain (队长) gave me a few suggestions before the game started. However, nothing 8 . You can imagine how clumsy (笨拙的) I was on the field.
But I heard a voice in my head, “You couldn’t be that bad at soccer. Any progress in life takes 9 . All you have to do is to keep trying and then wait. You shouldn’t give up.” Over the next few weeks, I practiced really hard and gradually I could move more quickly and easily. I started scoring point after point for my team. I was proud that I had gotten others to change their minds through my hard work. When we had to pick team members, both teams wanted me to play on their side. They were fighting.
I was glad my effort paid off. That spring, I 10 that a brainy girl could also be good at a sport. I took pride in myself.

Emma stood backstage, holding her note cards tightly. She was usually a 1 girl who liked reading in the library. But today, she wanted to beat her fear of speaking in public by joining the school speech contest.
When her turn came, Emma walked to the front of the room. For a second, her mind went completely 2 . The light felt too bright. She took a deep breath and started to speak. 3 , the words came out more smoothly than she thought they would. Soon, she even began to enjoy sharing her story.
However, when she reached the most important part, she saw two students in the front row 4 to each other. Suddenly, she felt less sure of herself. “Are they laughing at me?” she thought. Her voice became 5 , and she stumbled over a few words.
But then she 6 what her teacher always said: “Focus on the people who are listening.” Emma saw a kind-looking teacher in the third row nodding encouragingly. This gave her strength. She took another breath and 7 her voice, speaking the last sentences with all her heart.
When she finished, the room was quiet for a moment before everyone started 8 . Emma felt warm and happy inside. She learned that being brave doesn’t mean you are not 9 —it means you don’t give up even when you are scared. That day, Emma didn’t win first place, but she won something much 10 .

Everybody makes decisions in daily life. Some of them are as 1 as what you will eat for breakfast while others can be as important as what you will do in the future. And the decision that you make can even be a turning point of your life.
I made an important decision when I was in Junior 3.
Before I made that decision, I was just one of the boys who tried hard to act as a/an 2 . I didn’t listen to my parents or teachers, thinking it was a way to 3 my independence (独立). But soon my grades were getting poorer. Then came the high school entrance exam.
At the turning point of my life, my mom wanted to have a talk with me. In fact, I wanted to 4 her but when I looked at her eyes, I felt I couldn’t. Instead of asking me to study hard, to my surprise, mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. 5 thinking too much I just said I would study hard.
Mom smiled and asked again, “What do you want to do?”
I never 6 thought about the question. So I kept silent.
“ 7 you want to go on studying or start to do something differently,” she went on, “it is your own decision. Remember, it is you who decide your life, not anyone else.” Mom said with tears in her eyes.
For the first time in my life I was 8 to make a big decision by myself. I was left alone and thought about my future.
I have made the biggest decision so far in my life—I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To 9 that, I needed to study hard.
The path to my future became 10 to me. I didn’t act rebelliously (叛逆地) any more. With passion (激情) in my heart, I studied hard.

Hi! My name is Adam and I’m a freshman in senior high school. Going from junior high school to senior high school is a really big difficulty. The first week was a little 1 .
First, I had to think very carefully about which 2 I wanted to take. I spent hours looking through the course list, marking possible choices with a yellow marker and crossing out (删掉) ones that didn’t 3 my schedule, until my desk was covered in crumpled notes. The school adviser helped me choose the suitable ones: Maths, English, Chemistry, World History, and Chinese. I know that Chinese is a very 4 language, but I hope to be fluent and get an A when I graduate. My adviser recommended I sign up for advanced literature since I like English and I’m good at it.
I had to choose extra-curricular activities, too. I tried to join the school football team, but the coach told me that I didn’t play well enough. During the tryout, I 5 an important pass that would have made a goal. The coach said I had courage but needed more practice, which hurt more than I wanted to say. There is no doubt that I was unhappy, but I won’t stop trying. I’ll find a way to 6 on my own so that I can make the team next year.
I joined a volunteer club instead. Every Wednesday, we work at a soup kitchen and 7 food to homeless people in the community. Last week, I was serving hot soup 8 the old man began telling me his army stories, and the work suddenly allowed me to meet more people from different backgrounds.
I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and get used to being responsible for a lot more. I’m a bit worried about keeping up with the other students in my advanced course, 9 since some of them already seem to know the material really well, and it’ll be quite difficult to get used to all the homework. Still, I’m 10 to be here. Studying hard isn’t always fun, but I’ll be well prepared for university or whatever else comes in the future.

In my early years at school, I had trouble with some subjects. I used to be a naughty boy in class and get really 1 grades. It came as no surprise that I would get an F and that would make me really 2 . So what I used to do was cover those grades up—I would turn the F into a B just to 3 my parents. Well, it didn’t work. Later, I knew I had to 4 that failure and learn from it, and something good really came from it. I started doing better with my grades. That F turned into a B naturally, and that B turned into an A.
Since we were little, we’ve been taught to believe failure is really a 5 and that we must feel sorry and guilty when we fail. So we work hard to 6 commonly-believed success and stay away from failure.
However, this is a completely 7 idea. Life is full of ups and downs. From being a kid to growing into an adult, you will fail at many things in life. So it is impossible to pay no attention to it. It is OK when failure happens. In fact, it only tells you about yourself. You get to learn about your 8 abilities, what you are good at, and what you are not.
Whenever you 9 a failure, never think that you are never going to get over from this. You must come up with ways to better yourself. Did you know Bill Gates failed many times? Even his first company was a complete failure. J. K. Rowling was 10 many times before her Harry Potter was published. So you must learn from your failures, not run from them!
As Winston Churchill puts it, success is not final, failure is not fatal. And it is the courage to continue that counts.

“Shoulders square, knees high, pump hard” Kenny heard every word from Coach Fisher, but his mind was somewhere else. Last night’s 1 talk with his dad kept replaying in his mind.
“Get enough sleep. Eat light in the morning. Run two laps and...” His dad had been giving 2 on every detail, as usual. “What time does your race start?”
“I... I don’t know,” Kenny lied, looking at his feet. “Do you have to go?”
“Well,” his dad 3 . “It’s not that I HAVE to. It’s that I WANT to.”
“Yeah, I know, but...” Kenny continued. “It’s just that you make me 4 , Dad, I think I’ll do better... on my own.”
Kenny’s dad turned away 5 . Kenny saw his face and knew he’d made a mistake. “Sure. I get it,” his dad said, leaving Kenny with his thoughts.
“Now,” Coach Fisher’s voice cut. “Remember— run through the finish line!”
At the starting line, Kenny felt excited and sorry. He’d done everything Dad said—slept early, ate lightly, practised hard. But something still 6 on him.
BANG! The race began. Kenny had a good start and pushed his body to the limit. Go, go, go!
Wind hit his face. Other runners became shadows. Kenny felt as if he was flying. Push, push, push. Was he 7 ? He leaned forward. Don’t run to it, run through it. He felt the tape snap across his chest. He’d done it! He’d won!
It was a personal record but it didn’t feel as good as he 8 . Kenny looked at the medal in his hand. The round gold medal felt heavy and cool in his hand. He wanted to 9 it to someone... but that someone wasn’t there.
“Nice race, Kenny,” Coach Fisher said. “By the way, would you go check the top stand before we leave?”
Climbing up, Kenny suddenly stopped. At the top of the stands, taped to the bag above the last row, was a small handwritten sign. It said simply, I was here. 10 of you.
Kenny smiled, eyes watery. He knew that handwriting.

Do you remember the name of your kindergarten (幼儿园) teacher? I do. Her name is Mrs. White. And I remember I thought she must be a sister of Snow White because she had the same bright blue eyes, short dark hair and fair skin 1 Snow White.
I don’t remember much about what I learned in her class. My mother once told me that I used to 2 a lot. I would bring back what I wrote and she would read it. There are so many 3 but no red corrections and always a star. Sometimes even a “Good” would make my heart full of happiness. One day, my mother went to meet Mrs. White for one of the parent-teacher activities. Then she asked Mrs. White why she never corrected my spelling or pointed out grammatical mistakes.
“The children just 4 to get excited about using words and making sentences. I don’t want my students to lose 5 because of red crosses. Spelling and 6 can wait, but the wonder of words won’t...” Mrs. White said.
I remember that the time I spent learning in kindergarten was very happy for me. As I grow up, I 7 want to know many things and love my life. I look back now and think Mrs. White must be such a(n) 8 teacher that she used as few red crosses as possible.
I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot, and could never remember that the “e” goes before the “a”. It made my teacher in high school angry. She asked me to use “pretty” instead when I was writing. I didn’t listen to her. In my eyes, “pretty” is easier to spell, 9 it doesn’t hold as much meaning as I mean sometimes.
Thanks to Mrs. White, I have never 10 writing what I meant, even if I couldn’t quite spell it. I believe life may not be pretty, but it should be meaningful.

One day a little boy decided to go on a journey. He wasn’t quite sure how long his journey would take, so he packed a big hiking bag. He started down the road very happily on his own, but then he noticed some deep holes in the road. He succeeded in going around them and kept on 1 .
Suddenly some rocks started coming at him, some of which he could catch and throw away, some he could jump clear of, but others hit him, and they 2 him.

I learned to 9 that small voice inside me, my abilities, and myself. I learned that sometimes a 10 can be easy and sometimes very tough. The biggest thing I learned was not to give up but to keep going forward to reach my goal.”

I couldn’t stop thinking about watermelons, giant, juicy wonderful watermelons. I’d saved all my 1 to buy one. I was going to eat it all up by myself, for the seeds.
At the store I searched 2 , looking for my dream watermelon. There it was. After paying, I rolled (滚动) it out of the door, then along the sidewalk until home.
“Lucy! What are you doing with that watermelon?” Mom asked in 3 .
“I saved up my money for it. I’m going to eat it all by myself.”
Mom frowned, and warned, “You’ll get 4 .”
“Please,” I begged, I’ve saved all my money for it.”
Mom thought for a while, then smiled meaningfully as if she knew something. She asked me to roll my watermelon out in the yard. My sister followed her. “Oh, watermelon,” she cried with 5 “I want some.”
“Sorry,” I told her, “I’m going to eat it all by myself.” “Mom!” she cried, very upset.
“Your sister saved her money for it. She 6 what to do with it.”
My brother came out next, “Watermelon! Can I have some?” “No way,” I refused at once.
My father saw it. “Oh, watermelon!” he said.
“Don’t even ask,” said my brother.
“She won’t 7 ,” my sister added.
Mom cut the watermelon into eight pieces. I took a bite at my first piece. Red juice ran down my chin (下巴). The four of them stood together around the picnic table, watching me eat piece by piece. My hands felt sticky. My stomach started to feel full, but I just couldn’t stop.
Looking up at my family, they were all looking at me silently. Suddenly my joy died. 8 , I felt a little shy. “Go ahead,” I 9 in a low voice, “have a piece.” Mom smiled. I guessed she knew all along that I’d do so. For a second, they didn’t 10 . Then, they rushed to the picnic table, each grabbing (抓住) a piece of watermelon. Now my whole family had watermelon- red chins, sticky hands, and black seeds piled in front of us. Everyone was tickled pink.

I used to feel hopeless and upset (沮丧的). Last year my mother was 1 ill and had an operation on her brain. I felt my whole world turn upside down and I had no idea what I could do to help her feel less painful. My eyes were filled with tears 2 I was alone.
Last month, I lost a watch, which was a 3 for my 18th birthday from my father. I could not fall asleep for a couple of nights and I felt very upset.
There have been many 4 things like these in my life. I could never know how to 5 such hard things until I read If You Have a Lemon, Make Lemonade (柠檬汁),
“When the wise man is handed a lemon, he says, ‘What 6 can I get from this? How can I improve my situation? How can I turn this lemon into lemonade?’ ” the writer wrote.
I suddenly 7 that life is full of ups and downs, so we need to stay positive all the time. Now when I think of my past, I wish I could have done with things 8 . When my mother was fighting against her illness, I should have held her hands in mine, telling her things would get better instead of hiding and crying.
Several weeks ago, I took part in a school singing competition. I didn’t win a prize. If I had not read this article, I would certainly have felt 9 again. But instead, I smiled after the competition. I was happy that at least I had got some stage experience.

“Are you okay?” my brother Matthew asked as our car turned upside down. Driving through the desert had become our special 1 . My head felt heavy as we were trapped in the car, surrounded by sand hills.
When I was a little child, I always wanted to be as close to my brother as he was with his friends. When Matthew first heard he’d have a brother, he was excited. 2 when I was born and he got to know that I was a girl, he felt sad. He even hid in his room for days, 3 to see me. As I learned to walk, my brother was a fourth grader. I would wait for him to come home from school every day. I followed him everywhere and asked him endless questions. “Why is the sky blue?” “Where do birds sleep at night?” To him, I was just a 4 little sister. He often told me to be quiet, but I never stopped. However, he was always there to hold my hand when I crossed the street.
5 later, Matthew invited me at once to visit him at college after I said I missed him. In his room, he handed me a drink. We talked in our usual way—few words but deep understanding. He always saw my 6 and became my support.
Once, when our family left me out of holiday plans because I had to attend my music classes, Matthew refused to go without me. We 7 together, just the two of us. On the cold November evening, we sat on the floor, sharing a 8 meal with just one hamburger each but much laughter.
My brother had become my hero. But after our car accident, I saw his true self—weak and scared. “Are you hurt?” I asked anxiously.
When we finally got out safely, I 9 I needed to protect him too. We smiled, understanding our bond had changed. This time, it was my turn to be his 10 . I held his hand as we walked back to the road. Luckily, we understood each other better, facing challenges together with renewed trust and care.
