Some students cheat(作弊) because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without1the time studying. Other students might feel that they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, it isn’t a good2.
A student who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test3to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some better ways together. Talking about these problems and4them out will help feel better than cheating.
If a student gets5cheating, the teacher may give a “zero” on the test, send him or her to the head teacher’s office, and call his or her parents. Worse than the bad grade may be the feeling of having disappointed those people,6parents and teachers. A parent may worry that you are not an7person and a teacher might watch you more8the next time you’re taking a test.
There are plenty of reasons why a kid shouldn’t cheat, but some students have already cheated. If that’s you, it’s9too late to stop cheating. Cheating can become a habit, but a student is always able to act better and make better10. It might help to talk the problem over with a parent, teacher, or friend.

In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In1way, failure may be a way towards success. The “Spider-story” is often 2Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider3a web. The spider tried to reach across a rough 4 in the rock. He tried six times. On the5time 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 6the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made7 models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked8 he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, “Failure? I have 9failures. Now I know 50,000 ways it won't10”.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused11?Were conditions right? Were you in top from yourself? What can you change? So things will go12next times.
Second, is the goal(目标 ) you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some 13about 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 14about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself" even though you may have 15.

One will feel happy when others flatter( 奉承) him in his face. It is said that the best way of flattering someone is to give him a “top hat”1.
A student was going to leave the capital to become 2official (官员) in a city far away. Before he started, he came to say 3to his teacher.
“It is4 job to be a good official.” his teacher said. “ you must be strict5 yourself and never be careless.”
“Don’t worry about me, sir.” The student answered. “I have already6anyone hundred top hats, which will 7those people quite happy.”
“But we are really gentlemen! 8could a real gentleman do such a thing ? ” His teacher was a bit 9. “ Never forget 10I taught you in class!”
11are always right, sir. I also hate such things. But, sir,12no one really gentleman like you can be seen in the world now.” said the student. It seemed that he had to do so.
13hearing this, the teacher was pleased. “What you said is true!”
“I have 14one top hat already. Now I have ninety-nine 15.” the student said to his friend later on when he asked the student what he had talked with the teacher about.

When I was in the third grade, I was chosen to be the princess in the school play. For “weeks my mother had helped me practise my lines. But once on the stage, every word    1 from my head. Then my teacher asked me to change my role to be a narrator (解说者) for the play.    2 I didn’t tell my mother what had happened that day, she noticed my    3 and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden.
It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions (蒲公英) popping (炸开)   4  the grass in bunches (束). I watched my mother bend down by one of the bunches. “I think I’ll dig up (挖光) all these weeds (野草),” she said. “From now on, we’ll   5 have roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions,” I protested(抗议). “All flowers are   6—even dandelions !”
My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn’t it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. “And that is   7 of people, too,” she added.
When I   8 that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth. “But you will be a wonderful narrator,” she said,    9 me of how much I loved to read stories’ aloud.
Thanks to my mother’s encouragement, I got to know everybody had his or her own    10 in the world. I felt proud of the role in the play.
