When Faced with Difficulties
When asked to speak in public, the author felt nervous at first but decided to accept it for various reasons. He did all he could to practice speaking loudly and finally succeeded, which affects his life.        
After reading the passage, I can’t help admiring the author for his great courage . Had he chosen to refuse to speak in public, he could never have dared to express himself before the others. On our life journey ,it’s out of the question for us to keep ourselves free from difficulties and troubles. What matters much is to accept them and then do everything in our power to find an effective solution.    
The inspiring story above reminds me of my best friend Tom . Tom was always suffering from poor English . In order to change such a tough situation, he spent time and energy on English learning, remembering new words, reading passages, doing English exercises. Little by little, his great efforts paid off. Not only has he made amazing progress but he has also found much pleasure from learning English.
 As senior 3 students, we naturally meet with problems and difficulties of different kinds in learning. In most cases, I prefer to deal with them independently, which is always painful but usually worthwhile especially when I find the solutions to them with my own efforts. If necessary, I will turn to my classmates and even the teachers for help.  
In short, in the face of difficulties, we are supposed to face up to them and more importantly thrive to conquer them.
