Since I was young, my mother has always spent lots of time sitting be-hind a sewing machine (缝纫机)
with a happy look on her face. For all the three kids in our family, she has made all the clothes.
My mother makes it look so easy, but the first time I tried to make something, I just couldn"t do it. I
worked too quickly, and when I finished, it looked bad. Soon, I just gave up.
This summer, I really wanted to make a dress to wear at a party. I picked out some nice cloth, and I
found a nice style in a book. I got so excited about sewing that I couldn"t even sleep.
I started early the next morning. My mother was at a meeting, so if I had questions, there could be no
one to ask.
I started sewing slowly and carefully, and I tried to do everything right. When I was sewing the top, I
made the neck too small. But the rest was fine.
"I finally made it!" I shouted two hours later. And it fit! For the first time, I couldn"t wear something I
had made with my own hands!
If you want to learn something, my advice is: Don"t give up when you can"t do it well. Start with
something easy, and try your best.

time. I believe that all our dreams can 2 if we have courage (勇气) for them. When I was young my father
always asked me 3 I would be in the future. Sometimes I found 4 very hard to give a certain reply,"I want
to be a doctor.""I want to be a teacher." and" I"d like to be a scientist!" Many of these answers are perhaps
very childish and ridiculous (幼稚而可笑的). But I never think they are 5 .
How time flies! Who is able to give a certain statement to his future? I know 6 that those high buildings
are based on solid foundation (坚实的基础). 7 a student, I should have a reasonable aim, and study hard.
My goal is to 8 the best university for further study after middle school. I know it"s hard work, and I"ll come
across many difficulties and frustrations. But no matter what they are, I"ll keep working on it and never give up.
Even if my 9 won"t come true, I have no regrets (遗憾) for what I have done, 10 I have worked hard at my
life.

| Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce (弹跳) back. But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit, are made of glasses. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have balance in your life. How? Don"t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special. Don"t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself. Don"t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. Don"t be afraid to fight difficulties. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave. Don"t shut love out of your life by saying it"s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; the best way to keep love is to give it wings. Don"t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you"ve been, but also where you are going. Don"t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless. It"s a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily. Don"t use time or words carelessly. You can"t get them back. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift: that"s why we call it "the present". | ||||||||||||||||
