We have a strange obsession with the concept of perfection. Driven by our culture, we struggle for an unattainable ideal. If I had the perfect parents, perfect grades, perfect ..., then I would be happy. We seek what we can’t have without remembering that we don’t actually need to be perfect. Imperfection allows us to be humankind.

Parents, teachers and other high-achieving peers will have us believe that we must be perfect if we wish to remain competitive. However, what job or school requires you to develop a cure for some of cancer by the age of 18? Although those grades will be admirable achievements, are they worth losing sleep? We feel that we need the perfect grades to get into the perfect college that will provide us with the education necessary for getting the perfect job. Making use of our thirst for perfection, the whole college and career industries have grown up making money by helping us reach our goals.

In fact, you need to focus more on your passions. Don’t worry about anything secondary to your passions. You won’t become an expert in anything if you spend your time trying to succeed in everything you do. You’ll only become an expert when you devote your time to that one project that truly brings you joy.

As members of this society, we have a responsibility to be excellent in what we do, not perfect. Although perfection can be a goal, it should not be the only goal. We only have 24 hours in a day and seven days in a week. Thus, we need to prioritize what we what to do and cut out the activities we cannot do.

With everything, though, make sure you are doing enough. Pursuing your passions is not an enough reason to completely give up on everything else. Try as hard as you can and let your future worry about itself. Worry about your task at hand and you will be successful in achieving your dreams. Most of all, remember that you are going to be okay.

1.According to paragraph 1, we know ________.

A. most people don’t want to be perfect

C. it’s not necessary to be too perfect

D. perfect grades result from remembering facts

A Leap(跳躍)to Honor

Leaping on a narrow balance beam(平衡木) is not easy. But Lola Walter, a 13-year-old gymnast, is an expert at it.

To perfect her skills, Lola ________ for four hours a day, five days a week. At the state championships in March, she finished seventh out of 16 girls.

That’s especially impressive, ________ she is legally blind, born with a rare condition that causes her eyes to shift constantly. She often sees double and can’t ________ how far away things are.

When she was little, her mom ________ that even though she couldn’t see ________, she was fearless. So her mom signed her up for gymnastics when she was three. She loved the ________ right away and gymnastics became her favorite.

Though learning gymnastics has been more ________ for her than for some of her tournaments, she has never quit. She doesn’t let her ________ stop her from doing anything that she wants to.

She likes the determination it takes to do the sport. Her biggest ________ is the balance beam. Because she has double vision, she often sees two beams. She must use her sense of touch to help her during her routine. Sometimes she even closes her eyes. “You have to ________ your mind that it’ll take you where you want to go,” says Lola.

To be a top-level gymnast, one must be brave. The beam is probably the most ________ for anyone because it’s four inches wide. At the state competition, Lola didn’t ________ the beam. In fact, she got an 8.1 out of 10 — her highest score yet.

Lola doesn’t want to be ________ differently from the other girls on her team. At the competitions, the judges don’t know about her vision ________. She doesn’t tell them, because she doesn’t think they need to know. Her mom is amazed by her ________ attitude.

Lola never thinks about ________. She is presently at level 7 while the highest is level 10 in gymnastics. Her ________ is to reach level 9. She says she wants to be a gymnastics coach to ________ what she’s learned to other kids when she grew up.
