Question

【题目】根据短文理解。选择正确答案。
At my primary school, I was one of the smartest kids there, I never studied, but always got perfect scores. I thought I was born clever. At least I believed so. I was also a prodigy in music according to myself. I could sing better than almost everyone else in my school. I was pretty sure that once I got t sixth grade, everyone would be surprised by me.
But actually, they weren't.
When I arrived at my new class, I couldn't wait to show everyone what I could do. However, there weren’t" always someone else who could do them better. My grades began to suffer. More talented (有天资的) girls often sang solos(独唱). I believed I wasn't smart. I believed I wasn't talented. I believed I was a failure.
Over the next two years, I had to work very hard. Every prize for the singing competition was given to me for hard work and effort. Grades were still very low but improving little by little. I worked really hard. However, I was never the best at everything.
I haven't realized until recently that I really don't have to be the best at everything. I was too hard on myself. In fact, when I did badly in a test, my classmates never laughed at me.
No one is perfect. There will probably always be someone better than me at something. Anyway, there are about seven billion people in this world. I will never be the number one at everything, and that's really okay.

【解析】本文是一篇记叙文．作者通过对自己学习经历的叙述，阐述了“人无完人”的人生道理。

（2）点拨：由文章第三段的叙述可知，作者在各方面都不是最好的，她认为自己并不聪明，也没有天赋，自己就是一个失败者。所以，她在学习上遇到了困难。
（3）点拨：根据第四段的最后一句However，I was never the best at everything．可知，作者尽管付出了很大的努力，仍然不是在各方面都突出的学生。
（4）点拨：根据文章的第五段I really don't have to be the best at everything．可推断出，作者意识到不要对自己期望太高。
（5）点拨：本文主要叙述了作者尽力使自己在各方面都很突出，力求完美，结果失败的故事。故选A。
