I was always told that the three Ps, patience, positive thinking and perseverance（毅力）, were a sure path  小题1:  success. But this advice does not always work as planned. My high school maths exam is one example. The exam,   小题2:   was originally to be held in our classroom, 小题3: (change) to the library at the last minute. This,  小题4: ，didn’t bother me because maths had always been my strongest subject. I patiently walked to the library, took my seat and did some deep breathing to help relax  小题5:  . But my mood quickly changed when I saw  小题6:  first question. I had no idea how to do it. I tried to stay positive and persevered  小题7:  I finally found the solution. With the problem  小题8: (solve), I felt proud of my achievement. 小题9: (fortunate), I then noticed that I had just 10 minutes left  小题10: (complete) the rest.
