    Yesterday I read a report on a charity show in a newspaper. The aim of the show was to  1money for the poor children. In the country areas, some children are out of school 2their parents can't pay for their education.

    To my surprise, many famous performers took part in the charity show, such as Andy Liu, Jay, Faye Wang, Kitty Chen and so on. The stars didn't ask for any pay. They did it for3  ! There were a lot of performances   4   singing and dancing. The audience were so excited that they 5 their hands from time to time. Of course, the show was a success.

    All the people followed the stars' example. A great number of people showed their generosity(慷慨) in    6   their money to the show. Both the ticket money and the donated money were soon sent to the poor areas and some of the poor children can get back to  7   now.

    Now many charity shows are held in our country, not only to8  education in poor areas but also to help people in trouble. As the Chinese saying goes, "All the others will come to one's rescue(援助)  9one is in trouble. ''I  10 the whole world will become better if every one of us gives charity to others.

    In modern society there is a lot of disagreement about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is good for social progress. Others say that competition is bad. It sets one person against another. And it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.

    I have taught many children who believe that their self-worth depended on how well they did at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and death matters. In their single-minded dream of success, the development of many other human qualities （品质）is sadly forgotten.

    However, while some seem to be lost in the desire （渴望）to succeed, others take a different attitude. In a culture which values only the winners, they are strongly against competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who are under competitive pressures（压力）from their parents or society. They are always told to be the top ones, but they think it's really hard. When I teach these young people, I often find them in a desire to fail. They seem to search for failure（失败）by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse:" I may have lost, but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try. If I had tried and lost, that would mean a lot."

    Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief. They think one's self-respect depends on how well one does compared with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this fear begins to dissolve（消除）can we discover a new meaning in competition,
