  Nathaniel Heatwole isn' t a terrorist.He' s a 20-year-old college student who just wanted to make a point about airline security.He aimed to show how easily someone could smuggle(偷带)weapons onto an airplane.

  In mid-September, Heatwole hid box cutters, bleach(漂白粉), matches, and modeling clay(橡皮泥)that look like plastic explosives in the bathrooms of two Southwest Airlines planes.The items were discovered nearly a month later during airplane maintenance inspections in New Orleans and Houston.

  In an e-mail to the Transportation Security Administration, Heatwole claimed responsibility for smuggling the item aboard in his carry-on luggage.Heatwole, a student at Guilford College in Greensboro, N.C., had made his point.Now federal law enforcement authorities have a different point to make.

  Heatwole was charged on October 20 with smuggling weapons onto a commercial airliner.The crime is a felony(重罪)for which Heatwole could face up to 10 years in prison.Heatwole claims he just wanted the government to improve airline safety.His intentions may have been good.Nevertheless, he broke the law.Now he faces the same penalty(处罚)that a terrorist might.

  Have you ever tried to draw a straight line, only to find it turns out all wrong? Or, wanted to show   1   at a party but the song you'd practised so many times suddenly   2   more difficult?

  I've had both these   3  .As a Senior 3 student, I have to   4   many exams.Each time, I enter one, thinking “I   5   fail this time.”

  But don't be surprised-it's not   6   we don't try, or don't do enough preparation,   7   don't take it seriously.On the contrary, it is because we put ourselves under too much   8  .It is thinking:“I must…” that makes us taste the terrible flavor of   9  

  We often   10   to our friends:“Don't be too hard   11   yourself!” But when we   12   our own goals, we may not listen to our own advice.

  In doing so, we are making our path to success increasingly difficult.

  So why not   13   this crazy pursuit(追求)to get the best? Just face the problem   14   before you with a calm mind, enjoy the hard work and you will succeed.

  In my opinion,   15   a calm state of mind is a skill for life.For people who want to succeed,  16   this is a very important lesson.

  So   17   time when you're trying to draw a straight line or   18   a performance, tell yourself:“If I can just do it better than last time, it's a   19  .”

  Keep a calm state of mind, and you will be happy   20   you succeed or fail.
