These can be encouraging words and words of determ in ati on.A pers on who believes in himself will keep tryi ng to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails.I n my opi nio n , the quality of determ in ati on to succeed is an importa nt one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should n ever give upOne reas on is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anythin g. It is not unu sual for us to fail in our first attempt at someth ing n ew, so we should not feel disappo in ted and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail , we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we can n ot make the same on es. If we do not try aga in, the less on we have learned is wasted.Fin ally, we should n ever give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop con fide nee, and this con fide nee can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we n ever challe nge ourselves, we will begi n to doubt our abilities.In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not , we will lear n somethi ng , and what we lear n will help us to become better and more con fide nt. Furthermore, if we give up , we have no cha nee of attai ning our goals any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.七、书面表达（共20分）下面是一个关于中学生怎样使用零用钱的调查结果，请根据下面提示写一篇文章。
