No one wants to lose. We enjoy the feeling of being a winner. But we also need to learn from the defeat.
During sports month at our school, all classes in Grade 8 competed in volleyball games. After losing one of the games, the atmosphere (气氛) in our class was kind of unbearable (无法忍受的), just like big, black clouds hanging over the classroom. Some of us even cried. Then I began to question myself: How did we let this happen?
The answer was clear enough. Our players always practiced playing volleyball. However, it seemed that we didn't do it the right way to beat the opponents (对手). So it meant that our practice time was wasted. Also, the girls were too nervous to calm down in the game. That was why we lost too many points in the second round. So we failed because we had the wrong methods (方法) and attitudes(态度). Life is full of unexpected (意想不到的) failures. We should face the fact and have self-examinations to find out why we failed. Sometimes, we are fighting with ourselves. Because of our hard work, we will win. And also because of our faults, we will lose.B
In your life, there are a lot of people around you. They are your relatives, neighbors, friends or classmates. Sometimes you get along well with them, but sometimes don't. What can you do when someone hurts you? Most people may be angry or even fight with him. But it's not a good idea. You'd better forget all this and forgive (宽恕) him.
Maybe it's not easy for you to do that, but it's possible. Please remember: Keep a good mood, and you will keep healthy. Staying angry with others, in fact, means letting others' mistakes treat yourself unfairly.
How can you forgive others?
First, think of something pleasant and try to get yourself happy.
Second, don't wait others to say sorry to you. If anyone hurts you, he won't say sorry to you. He may just want to hurt you or just don't see things the same way.
Third, try to see things in others' shoes. You can understand their minds better and make yourself a little happier.
At last, try to know yourself very well. Whose mistakes caused that, yours or others'? If it's your fault (错误), try to say sorry to them. If it isn't, smile at the thing.

A man died and was on his way to another world, either heaven (天堂) or hell (地狱). When he was halfway there, he saw a beautiful, huge palace. The owner came out and asked the man to stay and live in the palace.
"And now I just want to eat and sleep without doing any work."The man said: "I have been working hard my whole life.
The owner of the palace said: "If so, there is nowhere else better than here for you. There is a wealth of seafood and many other delicious foods in my palace. You can eat whatever you want without anyone stopping you. And you can rest assured (肯定的) that nothing needs to be done by you."
"That is great! This must be heaven!" said the man. And he settled down (定居) in the palace.
At first, the man felt very happy with a life of eating and sleeping. But gradually, he felt a bit lonely and bored.
So he went to the owner and said: "Just eating and sleeping every day is very boring. Now I'm losing interest in this kind of life. Could you help me find a job?"
The owner replied: "Sorry, there are no jobs here at all."
After another few months, the man could not stand it any more and went to the owner again. "I really can't stand this kind of life any more," he said. "If you do not offer me a job, I would prefer (宁愿) to go to hell rather than (也不) live here."
The owner of the palace smiled. "Where do you think we are now?" he said. "Heaven? We are actually (实际上) in hell!"
