A group of frogs(青蛙) went jumping through the forest one day. Suddenly, two of them fell into a deep 1 All of the other frogs came together to look 2at their two fallen friends. They all began to shake their heads 3 "It's too deep!" said one frog. Another added that there was no way they would ever be able to get out 4.

    The two frogs began to jump and tried to get out. But the frogs that were 5 kept shouting at them that they had better 6 because they were just wasting their 7. One of the two frogs finally 8, listened to their advice and died.

    The other frog just kept on jumping harder than ever9 all the shouts. They kept shouting at him to stop being so 10and save himself from all the pain(疼痛) when he jumped and fell back down to the hard bottom again and again.

    Finally, to the 11of all the other frogs, he jumped right high enough and got out. The other frogs asked him, "Why did you keep jumping 12we shouted at you to stop?" The frog explained, "I was so worried at that time that I could hardly, 13anything. I thought all of you were saying words of 14all the time and cheering me on to try harder."

    Yes! Cheering words can sometimes make such a (n) 15. A little encouragement can go a long way.

Jenny had an argument with her best friend Judy last Sunday. She thought 1 was really difficult and wanted to copy Judy's homework. But Judy 2 . They didn't talk to each other for a few days. Jenny didn't know 3 to face her maths problem and she wondered if she could get on well 4 her friend again.

Yesterday afternoon, she saw a cool boy playing the 5 happily by the road when she was walking home from school. The violin sounded so nice. 6 Jenny didn't know what music he was playing, it made her feel better. After he finished the music, Jenny walked over to 7 and said, "Thank you for your beautiful music. It gets me out of the really 8 mood(心情)." Then she reached inside her pocket and took out some 9 and gave it to him. To her surprise, the boy asked her to take the money back. He explained that he wasn't making money by playing the violin. He just wanted to 10 others. He hoped that the wonderful music could make people 11 and happy. That's why he played it by the road. What a 12 boy he was! Then Jenny told him about her trouble.

He said, "You should learn to smile, even if you are in difficulty. Listening to music is helpful. So why not listen to music as 13 as possible? Never lose heart! Believe in your friend! She has her reason. 14 yourself! Everything will go well!" Hearing these words, Jenny went home with a(n) 15 . She believed she could make it.
