Let me tell you about a young boy who made a model car all on his own. The boy is me, and I did it six years ago when I was just 11. The car was small and simple.
It was during the summer holidays and workmen were building a new driveway and garage (车库) beside our house. It meant to add something new to our home. When I watched the workmen, I came up with an idea—I would build a car to drive into the garage in celebration of it. I told my mother and began with my plans. But I couldn't find the right things for making the car, so I gave up and sadly spent several days doing nothing. My mother noticed that I had stopped working and asked me why. I explained and she suggested that maybe I should change my plan to fit the things I had, rather than give up.
And that's just what I did. I found small pieces of wood in my father's workshop and made my car from anything that was lying around the house. When I found a small engine (发动机) from one of my old model planes, I added that. The power came from a battery (电池) I found in a box. By the time the garage was finished, so was my car. I called my family together outside the house, started the engine and put the car on the driveway. It was fast, and I had to run to the garage to prevent it from hitting the new door. My family began to cheer and I smiled proudly. Thanks to my mother, I learnt the value of continuing to do things, especially something difficult. Soon I was making plans for my next project—a robot!
Miracles (奇迹) will happen if you don't give up trying. Even if you have failed for one h times, you may succeed (成功) when you try for the 101st time.
When I was born, the doctor told my mother that there was something w with my legs. They were too soft to be able to walk. Although the news was b, my mother didn't become frustrated (沮丧的). She didn't believe what the doctor said and started to look for other ways.
My mother k looking for other doctors for me, and finally she succeeded. The doctor and his team in the hospital did everything they could to help me. They also asked my parents to teach me to do some e to help me walk. One day when my mother came to pick me up, I crawled (爬行) towards her. She was so surprised that she couldn't b her eyes. Crawling was not walking, but it was a good s. Day by day, I could walk by m.
When I grew up, my mother a told me these stories. She said that if I thought of what she said whenever I met any difficulty, I could do a successfully. I have been working hard and I have been a very excellent person. I get best grades in school and I am a good dancer and swimmer. What the story tells us, as my mother always says, is—never give up.
