    第二节：语法填空：

    Recently I failed an exam. However, after I came out of my teacher’s office. I told myself:   “Smile! It’s not so serious.”

    I smiled a big smile and it worked a little, really.

    Everyone gets frustrated sometimes. I used to be always influenced by pressure and so was often in low spirits. But one day I came across a sentence in the Bible: “Do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Let the day’s own trouble be sufficient (足够的) for the day.” It suddenly struck me: “Worrying about a problem doesn’t help. Why not just give a big smile and face up to the trouble?”

    Now every time I want to cry, I remember myself that laughter is better than tears and anger. I am convinced that there’s something magical about a smile. A smile helps me recover confidence and gives me the courage to move on.

    Remember, whenever you are faced with a setback, whenever you’ve been treated unfairly, all it takes is determination and you can feel happyagain. Smile at life and it will shine on you.
