In one way of thinking, failure is a part of life. In     1    way, failure may be a way towards success. The "Spider-story" is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider making a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times. On the     2    time he made it and went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to defeat the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed     3    he found the correct way to make one. Once he was asked      4    he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, "Failure? I have no failure. Now I know 50,000 ways that won't work."       So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it？Were conditions OK? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change? So things will go     5    next time.        Second, is the goal you're trying to reach a proper one? Try to do some     6    about what your real goals may be. Think about this question. "If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?" This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing any way.       The third thing to keep in ears about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to live with yourself even though you may have     7   .

I often hear some students say English is difficult, and it gives them a headache. So they can’t learn it well. But English is very easy for me. I’m good at it. I’m very glad to tell you something about how I study English.

First, I think an interest in English is very important. When I was in Grade One, we had a new subject -English. It was fresh for me. I was interested in it, so I worked hard at it. Soon we had an English exam and I got a very good mark. How happy I was! After that, I learned English harder and harder. Our English teacher often teaches us English songs, the songs sound nice. I often think how interesting English is!

Second, I think English is a foreign language. I should learn it well in the following ways: Listen to the teacher carefully, speak bravely, read aloud and have a good vocabulary. Then practice again and again, never be tired. And I also have a good habit: Asking whenever I have a question, I must make it clear by asking our English teacher. How happy I am when I understand!

Besides this, I often read English stories, jokes and easy novels. From these I know English is not only interesting, but also useful. They help me understand a lot of things. So to do more reading is an important way to learn English well.

And I also do some exercises from our class magazines, and I often write English diaries. English has become a close friend of mine.

Now I have learned English for more than two years. I always keep the first position in our school. From these words, I hope every student can learn English well.
