Dear editor,

    Several days ago, I heard that a dear friend of mine had killed herself. I was deep in sorrow by the sudden news. I can't keep calm any longer.____

    Life is so precious. If we can slip into death in an impulsive (冲动的) moment, what use in all our efforts and hopes? Our families, our ambitions, everything is thrown into total darkness. ____Nevertheless, the suicide rate increases year by year, particularly of. young people. Reasons may vary from person to person, ____

    First, today's young people are morally weak. They hunger for success but can not face failure; they are eager to be understood but afraid of opening their hearts to others. They live in a wide world, from east to west, ancient to present, but their hearts beat in a narrow desert, closed tight, unable to communicate, Each becomes an isolated fortress(孤堡), lonely, and weak.

    ____ As a young teacher, she was devoted to her work but was disappointed with her students' occasional failures. She fell in love with a colleague but he deserted her. With no friends, disappointed at. work and in love, death seemed to her the only remaining choice and she took it.

    Another reason for the weakness of today's youth, in my opinion, comes from society's pressures. ____On the other hand, society refuses to accept that children sometimes do fail. But failure is more important because it can teach the young how to win next time.

    What can we do to save the desperate young?

A. I'm always thinking about life and death

B. yet I think they share something in common

C. The young are forced to try too hard to succeed

D. My friend is a good example of that

E. And death allows no time for regret

F. people love success and are afraid of failure

G. failure is the mother of success
