A Test

One Story A Day

一天一个故事

A Test failed a test. I felt terrible. It hurt me both inside and out. I was embarrassed. Just think about it. A smart girl did not pass the test! l cried. I could not sleep. " I was supposed to be at the top! How will l face my friends at school?" I thought. I would never be happy again. Never! My mom found out about my problem. She said, " So, you failed a test. But do you know about another test that is even more important?" “ What is it?” I looked at my mother, puzzled. “ It is whether or not you can learn from your mistake, " my mom continued.

一次测验 测验失败。我感觉糟透了。我里里外外都痛心。我很尴尬。想想看。一个聪明的女孩没有通过考试! 我哭了。我无法入睡。“我应该考好的!”我将如何面对学校里的朋友?”我想。我再也不会快乐了。从来没有! 我妈妈发现我的问题。她说:“你考试不及格。但你知道另一项考试更重要吗?”“什么事?”我疑惑地看着母亲。 “关键是你是否能从错误中吸取教训，”妈妈继续说。

“ Learning from your mistakes will make you strong. To me, that is more important than what you scored on a test. ” What my mom said really made me think. After a few days of struggling, I finally understood what my mom had said. She was right. I should not pity myself because of this one bad test. I will walk away from this a better person.

“从错误中吸取教训会让你变得更强大。对我来说，这比你考试的分数更重要。” 我妈妈说的话真的让我深思。 经过几天的努力，我终于明白了妈妈说的话。她是对的。我不应该因为这次糟糕的考试而可怜自己。我会成为一个更好的人。
