1. (2022九上·定远月考) 阅读短文，回答问题

It is not always easy to discover yourself. From a young age, I had a strong sense of who I would become—but an accident changed everything.

To me, skating was more important than anything else in the world. Nothing else filled my heart with so much happiness. I spent 24 hours a week developing my skills. I had no social life or interests other than skating. But I got first place in nearly every competition.

Unluckily, during one competition last year, I fell and was badly hurt. The doctor told me that I couldn't skate any more.The pain in my back was hard to bear and even basic daily tasks became difficult. My passion （激情） had been taken away. I lost heart and had no idea what I would become. After eight months of suffering, something had to change. Instead of sitting around and wasting my days, I began to work with local community service projects. By volunteering as a swimming teacher for kids, I got an idea of who I wanted to become. After a few months, I found a new interest. Little by little, I stepped out of the pain and rebuilt my confidence.

Sometimes, challenges （挑战） in life will get in our way. We can choose to stay behind or try to get past these challenges. My accident was a challenge that failed to stop me from reaching success.
