阅读短文，从每小题的四个选项中，选出一个能填入文中相应空白处的最佳答案。
When I started learning coding last year, I thought I would never keep up with my classmates. My teacher noticed that I was too 1 to ask questions.
One day, she handed me a small note-book and advised me to write down what I did. At first, I thought it was useless and didn't take it 2. Soon, I found the note-book was 3 magic. I noted every mis-take and what 4 I took to fix it. Over time, these notes became my own personal “learning guide”.
Then came our first big project: build-ing a simple game. I was nervous, but I re-membered my notebook. I looked through my old notes, and I found the solutions that I had 5 before. When I showed my game to the class, my teacher smiled and said, “You see? Learning isn’t about being naturally good at something. It’s about being 6 to learn from every step.”
Now, when I face a new challenge, I don’t feel afraid. I know my notebook will help me 7 it. I realize 8 mistakes aren’t failures—they’re 9 to help you get better. And smart learning isn’t about talent, it’s about choosing to be curious, patient, and open-minded. It proves that anyone can learn, as long as they don’t 10 trying.
