4.Each of us struggles for self-respect and self-worth to some degree.I spent much time trying to achieve perfection in every aspect of my life.
I was a happy kid with a lot of friends and a supportive family.But growing up was really (36)B and even scary sometimes.
During my childhood,I was constantly involved in something that included people's viewing my achievements or my(37)C.I wanted everyone's praise and acceptance,but I was my own toughest critic (挑剔的人).
After I graduated from high school,my (38)B to be"thin"began to trouble me.I began trying to diet by (39)C my food.
In the beginning,I felt great-attractive and successful,almost superhuman.I even thought that I was better than everyone else.What I didn't see was that I was slowly (40)A myself.
People around me began to (41)D my weight loss.They said with concern."You're losing too much weight.""Elisa,you're so thin."All their words only suggested that I was getting closer to"(42)A".
Sadly,I took my physical(43)D the first important in my life,(44)A that it was the way to become successful and accepted.
Then I cut down my (45)C more and more,until a(46)D day consisted of half a teaspoon of nonfat yoghurt and coffee in the morning,and a cup of grapes at night.
But my poor (47)B began to cause me to lose (48)C.Then one night,like many nights before,I couldn't sleep,and my heart felt as though it might beat out of my chest.I tried to (49)B,but I couldn't.The beating became so rapid and so strong that I could no longer (50)A.What I had done to diet nearly caused me to have a heart attack.I stood up,and immediately fell down.I was really (51)A,and I knew I needed help.My roommate rushed me to the(52)D,beginning the long road to my(53)B.It took a lot-doctors,nurses,nutritionists,food supplements…
And most important,a sense of what was true about myself got back on track with reality.I realized that,with my (54)C of trying to be"perfect"on the (55)D,I had sacrificed who I was on the inside.What I know now is,we are-each and every one of us-already perfect.
