【正文】 或完成所給句子的最佳答案。 Here is a story: A man sees a butterfly（蝴蝶）. The butterfly tries to get out of its chrysalis（蛹）. Feeling sorry for it, the man decides to help. He cuts the chrysalis and the butterfly es out easily. Surprisingly enough, the butterfly is unable to fly. If the butterfly doesn39。t struggle（掙扎；奮斗） to leave the chrysalis, it can39。t fly!

So some parents and teachers actively encourage young people to face challenges. They might organize some activities for young people which provide them with challenges, like rockclimbing, camping, volunteer work and so on. However, just passing exams will not prepare a person for life. We must meet and overe challenges. The young people of today will bee the leaders of tomorrow. For countries to continue to bee successful, it is important that the young people learn to meet challenges and overe them.（1）From the story we know that the butterfly can39。t fly because ________.

Someone even says that friends are made to be used. It makes me very sad. True friendship doesn39。t mean that when you need your friend39。s help, you will treat him to dinner, and when you have to protect yourself, you will put your friends in a difficult situation. In fact, true friendship is the munication and understanding of the hearts. True friendship is like water. Compared with decent wine, water is tasteless, but is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don39。t need to be with each other every day, but are connected in heart every minute. True friendship is like medicine. Though it is bitter, it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize you when others have a good word for you, not because of envy but worrying that you may lose your cool head. True friendship has nothing to do with fame, power or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential, but e to you whenever you need their help. You39。re not his steppingstone to success, but are his crutch（依靠） to live through difficulties. True friends make you plete. Many persons go along with you through your life—your parents, your spouse（配偶）, and your children, who take care of you and make your life happy. However, you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them, you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit. True friends stay in your heart, rather than at your side。 they know you more than yourself, and try to better you.（1）What makes the writer sad?
