四、IV. 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容按要求完成任务。
When I was a Grade 9 student, I often felt tired and stressful because of the busy schoolwork. Gradually, I lost my confidence and even hope in my study. Thanks to a famous writer whose words shine with the beauty of love and wisdom, I was saved from pain and hopelessness. Her name is Bi Shumin.
When I was reading her books, I felt something special burning in my heart. When I was sad, she told me, "In an imperfect life, mud and sand are actually the raw materials（原料）of precious life. You should learn to be strong." Lifting my head, I felt a kind of power I couldn't name filled my heart. When I looked outside the window, birds were singing and everything looked so warm. Her soft but powerful words made me relaxed and finally I found my way out of sadness.
Bi not only saved me from pain but also told me something about life. In her books, she tells me to be true to myself. I need neither to please others nor to wrong myself. Her soft words have the power to help me stay positive towards life. Like the shining light, it leads me to a more beautiful and wonderful world.
Now I am in a book club, where I can talk about the books I have read with my classmates. I do enjoy reading so much and it really brightens my days.

Yes, it did. The book that once pulled me out of low spirits when I failed my important math exam and wanted to give up was *The Little Prince*. It taught me that the most precious things in life can only be felt with a sincere heart instead of being judged by temporary setbacks, and I should learn to be brave to face mistakes rather than lose my passion for what I love.
