The journey Betty had with her swimming was long but beautiful. She suffered some terrible illness in her early childhood. After years of 1, she finally became healthy.
Two years ago, while Betty was watching a sports program, a dream came into her head—to be a swimmer. Last summer, she wanted to 2 a local swimming team. So she practiced hard and finally 3 in being a member of it. However, the team training was a difficult start. She coughed 4 in her first few weeks. But she didn't want to 5. She kept swimming and didn't miss a single practice. She had a strong will to be the best she could be. 6 there were many difficulties, nothing could keep 7 trying.
Then came the final award (奖项) ceremony at the end of the year, Betty didn't 8 any award but was still there to cheer on her friends. With the ceremony near the end, she suddenly heard the coach announcing (通知), "The highest honor (荣誉) goes to Betty! She has inspired (激励) us with her 9 and love."
It was the 10 moment of Betty's life. With all she had been through in her ten years this was the hour of true success.
