One day, the students of Class 6 were reading in the classroom. Mrs. Brown came in and told the whole class that they would have to change the ________ next week. All of the students disagreed ________ Mrs. Brown, so they shouted when Mrs. Brown said it was because a new student would ________ the class. “Why must we move to another classroom just because someone new is coming?” One of them asked ________. Mrs. Brown stood there without saying anything. After a few minutes, she told them to be ________ to their new classmate and then she left.

The following week, the head teacher, Mr. White himself brought the new student to their class.________, he pushed the new student to the class because the student was in a wheelchair(轮椅). Mr. White introduced the new student Jeff to the class. He said that Jeff now was a ________ of the class and they should work together. He added, “Helping each other is very important.” ________ could fully understand what Mr. White meant at first.

Over time, they began to understand the reason. Jeff was a ________ student and often helped the students who didn’t understand their work. The class felt very thankful to him. They took care of him because they knew that when someone did something for you, you should do something ________ in return.

When I was in Grade 8, I had a heated argument (争吵) with my classmate, Tony. I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day.

I believed that I was right and he was wrong, and Tony believed that I was wrong and he was right. Our teacher, a kind and smart lady, decided to teach us a lesson. She brought us to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large and round object. I could clearly see that it was black. The teacher asked us what color the object was. “White,” Tony answered. I couldn’t believe he said the object was white! “Clearly, it is black!” Another argument started between Tony and me, this time about the color of the object.

The teacher told me to go and stand where Tony was standing and told him to go and stand where I was standing. We changed places, and then she asked me what color the object was. I had to answer, “White.” It was an object with two differently colored sides—from his side it was white, while from my side it was black. “Boys, now, what do you say?” the teacher smiled at us. Tony has been my best friend ever since.

My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: When you disagree with others, you’d better be in their shoes. That will help you look at the situation through their eyes, and truly understand their ideas and ways of thinking.

Nobody wants to lose, but we must accept that losing is a part of life. After all, we can’t win all the time. However, we can learn something valuable from every failure(失败). This may help us succeed in the future. So we must know how to be a good loser.

We must not be afraid of losing. When we lose, just take it with a smile and look on the bright side of it. Failure can’t be avoided in our life. Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb(灯泡).When he was asked how he felt, he said that he hadn’t failed 10,000 times but had learned 10,000 things which didn’t work. We must know that history is full of examples of men and women who achieved success although they failed many times.

Losing is not very disgraceful(丢脸的). We must accept our failure and learn to take advantage of it. Remember that it can be helpful. Take action to walk out of it. When we lose, think about what we did and how we can improve. If someone else can help, we’ll be lucky enough. Maybe he or she has been through the same experience before. Many people enjoy helping others solve problems. This can save us a lot of time in learning how to avoid the same mistakes in the future.

We should face our failure when we lose. There is only one winner in every competition. Some win, while some lose. That is a usual way of life. If we offer our congratulations(祝贺)to the winners and share in their happiness, we won’t feel sorry for our failure.

In a word, being a good loser will help us to succeed in life.
