I was cycling and saw a person about 250 meters _____ of me. I could tell he was cycling a little slower than me. So I _____ to catch up with him. I had about a kilometer to go on the road before turning off. I started cycling faster and faster. After a while I was only 100 meters _____ him, so I really picked up the pace (速度) and tried my best.
Finally, I _____ him. On the _____, I felt so good. I “beat him”, but he didn’t even know we were racing (比赛). When I was riding ahead of him, I felt so happy and rode _____. Soon I found that I had missed my _____ and had to turn around and go all the way back. Isn’t that what _____ in life when we race with others, trying to outdo (超过) them or trying to show that we are more successful or more important? We spend our time and energy running after them and we miss out (迷失) on our own paths. The problem with unhealthy race is that it’s a never-ending cycle. There will always be _____ in front of you in one way or another. What you should do is just to run your own race and wish others well.
