In fact, there' s nothing he loves more than playing football. In his school, Gabriel not only does {#blank#}4{#/blank#} than other players in his school team but also is the captain of his gym team.

    He knows that his disability means he will never be able to play for a {#blank#}5{#/blank#} football team. So Gabriel is hoping that football {#blank#}6{#/blank#} a Paralympics (残奥会) event one day. He proved to everyone there he could go neck and neck with any other boy {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. Watching him play is unbelievable. In the past few years he {#blank#}8{#/blank#} a number of football skills. He does everything he can to copy Messi who he admires most. Luckily, he {#blank#}9{#/blank#} to go to Spain to meet his idol Messi and showed his talent in the Barcelona Football Club last year.

    I've dreamed of becoming a writer since I was a teenager. But {#blank#}1{#/blank#}isn't easy to get a book of mine published.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} I've tried hard, none of my books have been published. This is really {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(upset).

    This morning, I received a call from a publisher and {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(tell) once again that there was no way my book would be published.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} ( feel ) sad, I left home and went to the park near my apartment. At the park, I sat down on the bench near the grass.

    While I was sitting there, I saw a little boy about one and a half years old. He was running on the grass,{#blank#}6{#/blank#} his mother not far behind him. He looked so happy when he enjoyed the {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(free) of running on the grass. He then fell on the grass, but he quickly got up and continued {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(run) as fast as he could again even without looking back at his mother. He was still running with a smile on his face, as if nothing {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(happen).

    Seeing that, I was truly inspired. I {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(sudden) realized that I shouldn't get discouraged after experiencing failure. Instead, I should cheer up and keep on trying.
