第二節(jié)：讀寫任務(wù)（共1小題，滿分 25分）
閱讀下面的一封信，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語(yǔ)短文。
Recently I took part in an English speech contest and successfully went into the final. That day, I thought I had done a good job. At that moment I even had a strong feeling of being the champion. But my dream was soon shattered when my final score was announced. I stood in the hall, feeling empty-minded and puzzled. My memory went back to when I was in junior middle school. I took part in a similar speech contest. I was too proud of myself. I was not well prepared, so it ended up as a total failure. But this time should be different! I had spent a lot of time tailoring each word. Why was it all in vain and I had to be a loser again? Very frustrated, I swore not to take part in this kind of competition again.
I was just about to leave when a well-known TV host suddenly said to me he did appreciate my speech. On hearing this, I was filled with mixed feelings---partly surprised, partly excited, partly sad, but there was one thing I am certain about---I did feel something warm and comforting floating inside my body. I never knew a few words and a kind smile could be so inspiring that I suddenly realized that frustration, sorrow, happiness and inspiration are treasures to make life more meaningful. It is these elements that make life real.

A Real Touch of Life
The author tells us a story that he failed again in his well-prepared speech competition, which threw him into desperation. But finally he got encouragement and realized the sadness, pleasure and frustration in real life.
In fact, everyone has an uncountable number of experiences of failure. I went through a failure, from which I learned a lot. It was at the beginning of the term. The time I received the first-time test paper, I was shocked for I had never got such few points before. Surprised and confused, I felt the world like a maze without way-outs. Just then my new teacher came to me and said that she still found merits in me and wished me not to give up advancing. That did me a great favor and helped me know that a failure was nothing but a failure, and so many failures in life couldn’t beat me.
From then on, I have got a better understanding of life where we have to accept what we can’t change and always try to be active, not willing to give up any hope. Whether we win or lose, we are feeling great. This is the life we are longing for — real and beautiful.
