    Run for Class President

    Two months ago, when our class election(选举) started, so I felt it easy to win. But I was1that people would feel bad for me if I lost.

    I was busy preparing in the following week. My plan wasn't to make promises to do things I couldn't2but to show my class why I wanted to be the president. I put up my posters in hallways and in the classroom. I also spent three hours writing my speech, saying that I was the one they could turn to whenever they had a problem. Since I was3prepared, I felt that my chances of winning were strong.

    However, when I gave my speech on Election Day, the response(反应)wasn't what I had 4. Few people actually listened. When it was my opponent's(对手的) turn, everyone was screaming(尖叫) his name. His speech was short, 5all to the point. By then, I realized I should have made6 shorter and clearer.

    It was obvious(明显的) who would7. For the rest of the day, I felt like it was over. I wanted to just go home and cry, but I made it through.

    My prediction was right: I didn't win.

    The next day, people were still talking about the8. I just pretended(假装) not to hear. But later, things got better. People9about the election and talked to me just as they did before. I don't regret putting time and energy10the election because I've learned that things aren't always going the way I expect. And moments of failure like this build character一since then I've learned to face disappointment and grown stronger.
