二，阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。(U2)
When we talk about “growing pains”, we don’t just mean the small aches in our bodies. It also stands for the difficulties and challenges we face as teenagers. These pains might come from schoolwork, friendships, or even our own dreams. But every pain can lead to a gain—something we learn or a strength we build.
Take 14-year-old Tom as an example. He loved skiing and joined the school skiing competition last term. He practised every weekend, but he failed to get into the top three. He felt heartbreaking and disappointed at first. His mother told him, “Failure is just part of growing up. It doesn’t mean you’re bad at skiing—it means you’re one step closer to being better.”
Tom took his mother’s advice. He asked his coach for help, and clearly realised that he needed to work on his breathing skills and balance. He kept practising, and this term, he won second place in the same competition. “I’m so proud of myself,” he said. “I used to be afraid of failing, but now I know that every time I fall, I can stand up stronger. That’s my gain.”
His teacher said, “Growing pains are not something to be afraid of. They are signs that you are trying new things and becoming a better person. Every challenge you face will teach you something valuable.”
