One day, a poor boy was so hungry that he decided to beg for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I own you?” “You don't owe me anything,” she replied, “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” With these words, Howard Kelly left that house.
Year later the woman became badly ill and was finally sent to the hospital in a big city. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Dressed in his doctor's clothes, Dr. Kelly went into her room and recognized her at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her, and decided to do his best to save her life.
After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention: “Paid in full with a glass of milk. Dr. Howard Kelly.”

假设你是某英文报社的编辑，收到某中学生读者的来信，信件内容如下：
Dear editor,
Recently, I was chosen as one of the two students by our school to compete in an English-speaking contest. I felt very excited and happy because I was given a precious chance to win honor for my school and to prove myself. In order to make sure that I could achieve the best in the competition, for almost two months, I had devoted myself to the preparation for the contest. With so much preparation, I was pretty confident that I would win! However, I was beaten by one of my school’s “weak” rivals (竞争者). When the result was announced, I could hardly believe my ears. Upset and disappointed, I burst into tears at that time. I felt as though I let my teachers down and even harmed our school’s reputation (名誉).I even felt that all my classmates were laughing at me behind my back . It seemed that my whole world had turned grey because of this failure .What can I do?
