Question

Last night Molly watched a basketball game. Her little brother, Sam, played in it. Sam did his best in the game, but his team   41   the game. Sam was very sad. Molly tried to make him   42  , but he was still unhappy with the result.

Molly thought for a long time and finally she came up with a good   43  . She decided to make his favorite cake for him though she was not good at it. She just wanted him to know that every loss has its own   44   and we can improve our performances next time. She thought it was enough if we had tried our best.

After Molly finished making the cake, she gave Sam a piece. When Sam tried a piece of it, he smiled, “No matter what others   45   the cake, I like it very much,” Sam continued, “because I know you have made it with your   46   and you have tried your best. ” Hearing this, Molly said, “This is just   47   I want to say to you.   48   your team didn’t win the game, you had tried your best. You are the greatest in my heart all the time!”

From then on, every time Sam   49   to do something, he thinks of Molly’s words. He is no longer   50   failing. Instead he becomes stronger to face all his troubles in his life.
