牛津深圳版初中英语九年级上册期中能力测试题（含听力音频）
On a sunny afternoon, Bob went to a park to take walks. Some people were painting pictures, some were reading poems and some were shooting arrows (射箭). It looked fun so he decided to challenge it himself.
He saw one woman pick up an arrow and shoot it after taking a moment to aim (瞄准). The arrow curved (飞出弧线) through the air beautifully. But it finally fell to the ground and missed the target (目标).
It seemed that she didn't put enough power into her shot. While Bob was thinking about what he should do. It was his turn to shoot. He focused (使集中) his eyes on the target and shot the arrow with all of his strength. But the arrow missed the target and stuck straight in the grass. He shot three more arrows, but all of them missed.
He was upset, but decided to take one more shot. He took a deep breath and put one foot forward to keep his balance (平衡). He focused hard on the target and shot the arrow. This time he hit the target!
He said, "There are many things that are not as simple as we imagine. There are challenges everywhere. But if we focus on one thing at a time and learn from failure, we can succeed in the end."
