Half
a year ago, I took part in an English {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（演讲） competition.
The experience taught me how important it is to stay calm and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（做） myself.
When
it was my time to give the speech, I became very {#blank#}3{#/blank#}（紧张）.
I could even feel my heart beating very fast. A girl beside me noticed how I
was feeling. With a smile she said, "Come on, just be yourself." "But,
" I said, "all the speakers here are much better than me and I don't
think I can beat {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（他们）." "So what?" she shouted. "You haven't even tried.
So how do you know you're a loser?"
Yes, maybe
she's right. I took a deep {#blank#}5{#/blank#}（呼吸） and stepped onto the stage to begin my speech. Everything seemed to
go {#blank#}6{#/blank#}（顺利地） while suddenly I stopped. My mind went completely black. I just
stand there {#blank#}7{#/blank#}（没有） saying a word.
"What
should I do?" I asked myself. "Run away or continue?" Just then,
the girl's words came back to me. "Be yourself." Yes, she is right. Her
words gave me {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（勇气）. I can't give up. I won't let her{#blank#}9{#/blank#}（失望）.
Then
I went on with the {#blank#}10{#/blank#}（剩余） of my speech with a cheerful voice. Little by little, the audience
seemed to be interested in my story. My speech turned into an easy chat. I had
found myself again.
