Two years ago I took part in a speech competition and delivered a memorized speech. It was a hard time for me when the judge_______ the winners. At last, the moment of truth came. I got the worst.

After not being placed in the competition, I really wanted to_______ again. I realized that finding the right topic was the most important part of the whole_______.

Then I worked _______ the speech, line by line, word by word, making it _______ better.

The next year I participated in the competition again.

I was deeply disappointed, since I couldn't accept the fact that I had ________ twice in something that I had worked so hard on. However, I knew that losing is ________ and part of life.

文章大意:这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过Kerry给作者的信中的故事,谈论了生活中不应该对别人吹毛求疵,过多批评,求全责备,应该找回对生活的热情和热爱,让生活变得更加美好。

【推荐3】One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder(找茬人). However, life can be _______ when you are not busy finding fault with it.

Several years ago I received a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always _______ by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and nothing was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became a really _______ person.

Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her _______. Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost _______ to deal with was that the day before the accident, Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her _______ of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to _______. It wasn’t until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became _______ her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather than to _______ everything so harshly(刻薄地). She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her ____________ as well.

Perhaps most of us aren’t as extreme at fault-finding, but when we’re honest, we can be sharply ____________ of the world. I’m not suggesting you ____________ problems, or that you pretend things are ____________ than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are — at least most of the time, and especially when it’s not a really big ____________.

Train yourself to “bite your tongue”, and with a little ____________, you’ll get really good at letting things go. And when you do, you’ll get back your enthusiasm and love for life.
