Under great pressure, I couldn't apply myself to study, resulting in failing animportant examination.And you can guess, I got very frustrated. I remember clearly when I was in a badmood, my headteacher, Miss Zhang, approached me and gave me a badge (徽章）with a big smile on it and said, "In life we all have those moments when we can't achieve what we want.
