**C**
Daisy, a fifth-grader, is considered one of the most popular girls in her class. She is admired not just for her looks, but for her talent for dance. Last year, she entered the school’s dance competition and won first prize, with her whole class cheering her on. Since then, she has been the centre of attention. This year, however, there was a change — the competition required dancing in pairs.
Daisy’s classmates held high hopes for her to win again this year. However, Daisy was uncertain about the result. She wanted to compete, but she had never danced with a partner before. As she was turned down by the boys in her class due to their lack (缺乏) of dance skills, Daisy began to feel hesitant (犹豫) about entering the competition.
She finally turned to her close friend Carl, whom she had known since first grade. Lacking confidence in his dancing abilities, Carl was hesitant at first. But Daisy insisted (坚持). He finally agreed to join her. Daisy was happy. However, she was still worried because she knew her class was counting on her to win. But the challenge was greater this time, as Carl was not a skilled dancer. With the competition two months away, only time would tell if they could succeed.
With strong will and enough practice, Daisy believed they could improve their chances of winning. Daisy and Carl practiced a lot and worked together. At the competition, they danced amazingly well and won!
When friends help each other, they can achieve anything.
