【答案】As the saying goes， "It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness." In our life，we may get the inspiration that a positive mind shall shed new angles from which the trickiest situation shows a brilliant solution.
Last term，I failed an extremely important test，leading to my failure to be admitted to a first-class university.I felt so depressed and disappointed that I spent nearly half a year in regretting and condemning my carelessness.One day.I read a story about a famous man，who failed to enter a noble university but succeeded finally with his hard work and determination.I came to understand that maybe success did not come from a decent degree but from your ability to cope with various difficult situations.From that on，I change my attitude and face what I have to face bravely and confidently.Now，I am a top student in my college.
Life provides different challenges to us.To overcome them，it is important to face them with a positive mind.
