Have you ever tried to draw a straight line, only to find it turns out all wrong? Or, wanted to show 26 at a party but the song you’d practiced so many times suddenly 27 more difficult?

I've had both these 28 ．As a Senior 3 student, I have to 29 many exams．Each time I enter one thinking “I 30 fail this time.” , I get a low mark．

But don't be surprised --- it's not 31 we don't try, or do enough preparation, or take it 32 ．On the contrary, it is because we put ourselves under too much 33 ．It is thinking ‘I must…’ that makes us taste the terrible flavor of 34 ．

We often 35 to our friends, “Don't be too hard 36 yourself!”．But when we 37 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 38 this?crazy?pursuit(追求)?to?get?the?best? Just face the problem 39 before you with a calm mind, enjoy the hard work and you will succeed．

In my opinion, 40 a calm state of mind is a skill for life．For people who want to succeed, 41 this is a very important lesson．

So 42 time when you're trying to draw a straight line or 43 a performance, tell yourself, “If I can just do it better than last time, it's a 44 ．”

Keep a calm state of mind, and you will be happy 45 you succeed or fail．

They like using the Internet．They have lots of pocket money to spend．And they spend a higher proportion of it online than the rest of us．Teenagers are just the sort of people an online seller is interested in, and the thing they want to buy ---games, CDs and clothing--- are easily sold on the Web．

But paying online is a tricky business for consumers who are too young to own credit(信用) cards．Most have to use a parent’s card．They want a facility that allows them to spend money．

That may come sooner than they think: new ways to take pocket money into cyber (网络的) space are coming out rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic．If successful, these products can stimulate(刺激) online sales．

In general, teenagers spend huge amounts: $153bn (billion) in the US last year and ￡20bn annually in the UK．Most teenagers have access to the Internet at home or at school－88 percent in the US, 69 percent in the UK．According to the Jupiter Research, one in eight of those with Internet access has bought something online－mainly CDs and books．

In most cases, parents pay for these purchases with credit cards, an arrangement that is often unsatisfactory for them and their children．Pressing parents to spend online is less productive than pressing on the high street．They are more likely to ask “Why?” if you ask to spend some money online．
