請閱讀下面一篇有關(guān)生活中的困難的文章，根據(jù)所提供的信息，完成下列表格。

Life is full of difficulties, from birth to death. When we face with problems, we often feel, “I am the only one having such problems.” Or, we exaggerate (放大) our problems and regard them as most painful. But if we look around us, we find other people may be in much worse conditions.

Life is not always full of smiles and flowers. Every person has his own difficulties no matter who and where he is. So it's very important to have a correct attitude in your life. Only with the correct attitude can you face up all of your difficulties and finally overcome (戰(zhàn)勝) them. First, you have to believe in yourself. That's the secret of success. Second, don't blame others when you have difficulties, because it can neither help you avoid difficulties nor help you solve them. And the most important thing is that don't run away or give up. Use your ability to clear the difficulties that appear in your life. Third, remember how you overcome the difficulty because it may help you avoid similar trouble next time. Just take it easy, enjoy the life even it's full of difficulties.

For   73 , when we write a history report, we don’t have to go to the library. We can find   74   about world leaders and historical events on different websites. Everything we want to know can 75  found at the click of a button.

The Internet helps us to stay connected to family, friends and the world around us. Not long ago, we wrote letters and waited weeks for a reply. Today, when we use QQ, we send and receive messages across thousands of miles in a   76  seconds.

Although the Internet has made our world better in many ways, in some   77   it can be a bad influence. There is a lot of false information on the Internet. It is important not to believe   78   we read on the Internet.

Some teenagers spend too much time  79   Internet games. They may lose focus on their studies.

 There are millions of interesting sites to visit and so many wonderful things to do online. How could we live without the Internet nowadays? But try to let the Internet be your   80  servant, not your bad master!

Andrew Engel was puzzled. He was sitting in class, but had no idea what the other students were talking about. He had done his homework, paid attention to lectures, and taken notes, but nothing was familiar. “Everyone is so much cleverer than I am,” he thought. It was a strange feeling, as he was always a good student in high school.
