五、完形填空。(2025·江苏泰州姜堰区期中)
I jumped up high in the air and landed in the sandpit. “3. 55 metres!” the referee(裁判) 1. The result was my best by then, but I was not 2 with it.
I have been competing in the long jump since primary school, so for me, I was likely to succeed. But this time, 3 seemed far from me. After trying several times, I lost heart and wanted to 4.
As I reached the last round of the jump, my worry and self-doubt built up inside. It seemed that all my 5 had been meaningless. I stood at the starting line, my mind totally blank(空白的) and my hands 6. I heard my classmates cheers 7 me, so I started running. I tried using my arms and shoulders to run faster, but my body started to show signs of tiredness.
As the highlight of this term, this long-awaited(期待已久的) sports event became my Waterloo(滑铁卢). Accepting failure was the last thing I wanted. 8 my best friends came to comfort me, I couldn't even say a word. They told me I had done a good job and that they were 9 me. These words were like warm wind, 10 away the dark clouds in my heart.
11 this experience, I realize that failure is the most common thing in life. We meet different kinds of failures everywhere. Failure makes us better understand 12 and our disadvantages. And it can make us get 13. That's because it not only allows us to get 14 from it, but also makes us improve ourselves. What's more, failure offers us a chance to 15 our bad feelings with friends which can develop our friendships. This is what I have learned in the long jump.
