Life is not easy, so I’d like to say, “When anything happens, believe in yourself.”

　 36　 　I was fourteen years old, I was too nervous to talk to anyone. My classmates often 　37　 　me because of that. I was sad but could do nothing. Later, 　38　 　happened. It changed my life. It was an English competition. My mother asked me to take part in it. What a(an) 　39　 　idea! It meant I had to 　40　 　in front of all the teachers and students of my school.

“ 　41　 , boy. Believe in yourself. You are sure to 　42　 .” Then, Mother and I talked about many different topics. At last I 　43　 　the topic “ Believe in yourself ”. I tried my best to 　44　 all the words and practiced it over 100 times. 　45　 my mother’s great love, I did well in the competition. I could 　46　 　believe my ears when the news came that I had won the first place. I heard the cheers from the teachers and students. Those 　47　 　who once laughed at me now all said “ 　48　 ” to me. My mother gave me a hug and shouted 　49　 .

　 50　 　then, everything has changed for me. When I do anything, I try to tell myself to be sure and I will find myself. This is true not only for a person but also for a country.
