五、完形填空。
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 3 those grades up—I would turn the F into a B just to 4 my parents. Well, it didn't work out. Later, I knew I had to 5 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 have been always taught to believe failure is really a 6 and that we must feel sorry and guilty when we fail. So we work hard to 7 commonly-believed success and stay away from failure.
However, this is a completely 8 idea. Life is full of ups and downs. From being a kid to 9 into an adult, you will fail at many things in life. So it is 10 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 11 abilities, what you are good at, and what you are not.
Whenever you 12 a failure, never think that you are never going to get over from this. You must 13 ways to better yourself. Did you know it took Thomas Edison 10,000 tries to 14 the light bulb? Bill Gates failed many times. Even his first company was a complete failure. J. K. Rowling was 15 many times before her Harry Potter took off. All of these prove that 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.
