For years, I followed the materialistic standards around me. I thought that without the purses, shoes, and all the other “_________” things, I would not be as pretty, smart, or important as others of my age.

As a freshman (新生) of my high school, I thought top social status could be gained by doing everything to fit in. So I became a(n) _________ and bought fake (伪造的) designer purses. I felt popular and important, and I loved it.

But, my parents couldn’t understand my strong _________ to be someone just to impress others. They tried endlessly to convince me that I was hurting myself, but I wouldn’t listen. I felt _________with this way of my life until one day I looked at myself in the mirror and saw someone with makeup and the product­filled hair wasn’t me. That person was _________.

So I quit cheerleading and _________swimming again, something I had loved for eight years before high school. I also attended my school’s top vocal (声乐) performance group, and _________ myself whole­heartedly to community service.

I wrote articles in my school newspaper that questioned the materialistic _________of many students at my school. I started _________my limits academically, which I previously considered less important than improving my social status.

I found a new group of friends who ____________me, unlike my old friends. I found I no longer needed to impress others materialistically. Starting over was ____________. My classmates looked at me as if they didn’t know me.

I am to ____________ the materialistic culture. I am confident, talented, and optimistic. I know who I am. I’m motivated to explore even more of my ____________as a student and a member of my community.

I took one of the worst ____________ in my life but I turned it around and ____________ something beautiful-a life that fits me, with meaning and happiness.
