As the teacher called my name, I knew what lay ahead. She looked at me directly and made me to the whiteboard to perform a division (除法) problem. Division was my weakest subject. I repeatedly put the numbers in the _____ places, or forgot to add in the zeros.

I worriedly _____ myself out of my seat. With every slow step I took, I grew more nervous. My stomach ached, and my whole body shook with _____.

The teacher read the problem aloud. Unsure of myself, I looked at the girl beside me, and tried to _____ what she was writing, but she went faster than I could understand, writing down what seemed to be foreign symbols.

My eyes fixed on the chicken scratch I had tried. Impossible to understand. Why me? Why couldn’t I work out the problem that seemed easy to all other kids? These questions filled my head.

As the other girl finished and danced back to her seat, I wrote some random(胡乱的) numbers on the board, and _____ back to mine. The teacher read over our work.

“Now, class, Susie did this problem absolutely correctly.”

“As for Tara,” the teacher said jokingly, “I don’t even know what she did.”

The class burst into laughs, and I felt my face turn red as I tried to sink as low as possible into my seat, hoping to prevent them from _____ me at all.

But this memory is one I remember, surprisingly, in a positive way. It made me _____, and gave me persistence. When I get a poor grade in school, or am put down by somebody, I think of that moment and every single one of those _____ that I asked myself. The terrible ache in my stomach comes back and gives me the motivation to answer all of those whys and try hard until perfection, or as close as I can get.
