How time flies! Back then, I was so disappointed at being too short and failing to get on the basketball team. I couldn’t help laughing at my heartbreaking words then. Basketball was really a big deal for me. 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. At first, I swam just to take my mind off things. But soon, I fell completely in love with the sport. I’ve won several competitions now and I’ve made a lot of friends. My life has taken a different turn. 　　3 It’s great to look back and see my pains and gains with fresh eyes. Growing up will never be an easy thing. But we need to look at challenges the right way. 　　4 Now I understand that failure is a part of life. It may fall upon us at any stage in our lives. I have experienced many other terrible moments since then. But I have never felt so bad again. I know clearly that failure lasts just a moment. When one door closes, another opens. Life is waiting for us with many other surprises. 　　5 Tomorrow is another day. 任务一：单项选择 1. Why was the writer disappointed four years ago? A. Because she lost her diary.　B.

I practised for two months and I really wanted to win. But in the end, I came fifth. I was so disappointed that I didn’t want to speak in public again. 　　My English teacher noticed it. She said, “A failure is not the end of the road. It is a sign telling you which way to go next.” She asked me to watch videos of the winners and find out what made their speeches good. 　　At first, I did it just to please her. But slowly, I began to see my own problems. My voice was too low, and I never looked at the audience. So I practised in front of a mirror every day. 　　This year, I entered the same competition again — and I won third prize. I have learnt that failure doesn’t close the road; it just shows you a better one. 任务一：单项选择 1. What happened to the writer in last year’s speech competition? A. He won first prize.　B.

I was so disappointed at being too short, and basketball had been my dream since I was little. For a few days, I didn’t want to talk to anyone. But then my best friend said, “Why not try something else?” She suggested that I should try running. At first, I ran just to take my mind off things. But soon, I fell completely in love with it, and I began to run every morning. Last month, I won second prize in our school running race, and I made a lot of new friends. Now I understand that failure is a part of life and it lasts just a moment. When one door closes, another opens. Growing up will never be an easy thing, but we just need to look at challenges the right way. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
