Around two weeks ago, I was invited to be a judge(裁判) at a college. All of the students had been given a piece of paper with a topic written on it. The first one to speak looked a little1. “My dear friends and judges,” he said loudly, “this is an unfair 2 ! I have been given the paper,” he continued, “to speak on the topic with just a few minutes' preparation,3those who come after me have more time to 4their speeches!” He then left the stage and went out of the hall.
I met him later by chance. “Who said life is 5?” I asked him with a smile, and I asked him to walk with me to my car. “Have you seen the figures(数字) they show when a new car is6 into the market, saying how good it is?”
“Yes,” he nodded.
“But they put a 7 after all these figures. They say all the figures are in ideal road conditions!”
“Yes,” he said again.
“Can you show me some ideal road conditions?” I asked him, and he smiled. “The car that sells well is the one8 will provide power and speed on the 9roads. That car is the winner.”
We had got to the car. “Don’t look for ideal competition conditions,” I said. “10 the unfair and come out a winner!”
I looked back as I drove away and saw him smile and wave, and I knew he would do as I said.
