参考范文：
Failure is a common thing in our daily life. For example, as a student, we may get a very low score in our compositions. It may happen that we cannot pass our examinations. All these failures occur so naturally that almost every one of us has had such an experience.
However, there are different attitudes towards failures. Some students lose heart in the face of a failure, thinking that the world is coming to its end. Other students don’t take a failure seriously and just let it be, while some others learn much from a failure and thus see the light of hope through failure.
In my opinion, what really counts is not failure itself, but what we think of failure and how we respond to a failure. As long as we learn something from a failure, we’ll certainly make our mark in the end. Consequently, I’m not afraid of failure, for I believe that failure is the mother of success.
