四、完形填空
As the teacher pronounced my name,I knew what lay ahead. She called me to the whiteboard to do a long division (除法) problem. Maths was my ______ subject. When doing a long division problem,I always repeatedly put the ______ in the wrong places,or forgot to add in the zeros. ______ I reached the whiteboard,I looked at the blonde-haired girl next to me,trying to copy ______ she was writing. I tried my best,but she went faster than I could understand.
Impossible to understand. Why me? Why couldn't I get my head around this strange concept (概念) that all the other kids understood? Why,even when I tried my hardest to deal with (处理) the division problems?
Why? Why?
I held back salty tears and wrote some numbers randomly (随便地) on the board. The teacher read over our answers silently.
"Now,class,Susie did this problem ______."
"As for Tara," the teacher said,rolling her eyes,"Gosh,I don't even know what she did."
The class broke into laughter,and I felt my face ______ red and I tried to hide as low as possible into my seat,in hopes of ______ them from seeing me at all.
But this ______ from middle school is one I remember,surprisingly,in a positive (积极的) way. It made me stronger,and gave me determination (决心). When I get a bad grade in school,or I am put down by somebody,I think of that moment and every one of those whys that I asked myself,which give me the courage (勇气) to ______ all of those whys. I will continue until perfection,or as ______ as I can get.
