Have you ever complained (抱怨) why life is so tiring? Does the sky sometimes seem dark to you? Are your studies sometimes not successful? Well, friends, c    1     up and smile all the time. If you see the world with your warm heart, you’ ll find that the whole world smiles to you. While in school, sometimes you are tired of your lessons, but have you ever noticed the happy smile on your teacher’s f    2     when you did a good job?

One day, it is fine. Just before you want to go out, it   s    3    starts to rain. Maybe you would feel very sad and start to complain about the w    4    . But dear friends, w    5     don’t you sit down and listen to the free concerts that the nature offers you? And with t he timely (及时地) rain，crops in the fields will g    6     better and better and farmers will have a better harvest.

A    7     everyone wants to succeed in what he tries to do, sometimes failure (失败）can’t be avoided. I think failure is not terrible, and the terrible thing is that we are   a    8    of it and give up hope. When we face failure, we must be confident (自信) in ourselves, draw a useful lesson from it and try our best to finish w    9     we decided to do. As a popular saying goes, “Failure is the mother of success.”

Attitude (态度) decides e    10    . With a positive attitude, life is easy and pleasant.
