Life is full of chances and challenges. For students, we don’t study hard，we will fall other students. At first, I didn’t know the word “exam” meant. Later, I knew an exam was a of competition. In competitions, there were always and losers. As I grew up, I got to know competitions well. In one’s life, there must be competitions, so people could . Each time I saw children games, and heard their laughter, I I were that age again. However, I remembered my parents’ words--You must work very hard have a good future. So I up my pen and began to study hard again.
I was still not what competitions really meant. One day, I was an English-speaking competition. When I went to the stage, I saw other students looking at me kindly. I suddenly knew what the competition was. It was not as cruel my teacher and parents told me. In fact, competitions were important and necessary.
I learned a lot what I experienced. Now I understand 15 about the world. Competitions are important for us all.
