I will graduate from high school in this June. After that, I will go to university in Tainan. Tainan is far from Taipei where I live now. If I study in there, I will be separated from my family. So I want to spend more time with my family and leave a lot of precious memories.

     On the bus to cram school, my classmates told me that they all forgot to bring the textbook. I felt so proud of myself. I thought that I would be a good student, and I was very happy.

     When we arrived at cram school, the teacher gave me another textbook. I felt confused but I still not knew the truth. Then, my classmates laughed at me and told me that the last textbook had already finished and we would start a new chapter. The news hit me like a thunderbolt. I was fooled by them!

     I felt so embarrassed, so I made up my mind that I won’t make the same mistake again. That day, I learned a lesson, and I won’t forget it. I will be much more attentive in class.

The day was the Moon Festival. I with my friends wanted to have a barbecue. We went to the supermarket and brought a lot of things, including: corn, meat, barbecue sauce, beverages and so on. After buying all the things we needed, we went to the park and started to have a barbecue. We happily played together and took many funny pictures. It was a very nice day. Next year, I hope we could have a barbecue together, too.

     John was very angry with his students. He said loudly to them,” Wake up!” And the students were very shocked. Meanwhile, John’s English teacher said “Wake up!” to him too. And John’s classmates were laughing at him. John felt very embarrassed. And he made up his mind that he would never fall asleep in class.

It was John’s birthday. He was very excited and waiting for his friends to come to his house. He thought it would be a good time to celebrate together.

Meanwhile, John’s friends arrived. They happily gave John the gift which they had prepared for a long time. Then they sang birthday song loudly and happily. They ate the cake and enjoyed the time.

At night, when all John’s friends left, he was excited to open the gift. Wow! It was a cute dog. John loved it so much.

The next day, John took his dog to the park. He happily played with his dog. Suddenly, John saw an old woman needed help. John was a kind person, so he walked to the old woman and helped her.

When John returned to the place he left the dog, he found his dog missing. He was so anxious because his god might get in danger. However, no matter how hard John tried to find his lovely dog, but all in vain.

John was so sad. All he could do was return home and forget the cute dog. Fortunately, his dog was very clever. The dog was waiting for John in front of the door. John was too happy to say a word. He took his dog into the house and promised that he would never leave his dog.

It was a sunny day; Jessie went out to have fun. And she saw a cute cat in the park by accident. Then, she went into the park and played with the cute cat.

     After one hour, it was time to go home. However, Jessie liked the cat so much that she couldn’t want to leave the cat alone. So she decided to took it home and asked her mom if she could keep the cat.

     When Jessie went home, her mom was cooking dinner. Jessie thought in her mind,” If mom notices I am so dirty, I will be blamed and that it is impossible for me to keep the cat.’’ So Jessie cleaned herself and the cat quickly. Then, she slipped into the kitchen and asked her mom sincerely. Happily, she had her mom’s permission.

     Jessie was happy because she gave the cat a warm house. But in a flash, she thought there were still so many stray cats in the outside. In order to help them, she went out of the house slinkingly, and searched more and more stray cats. Jessie was so kind that she took all the cats home.

     Jessie put all the cats in the living room, and then went on to tell her mom how many cats she wanted to keep. And she said to her mom,” I will take care of them. Mom, you don’t need to worry.’’ When Jessie returned to the living room, she was shocked. All she could see was a mess. The sofa was messed up and the lamp overturned. What was worse, the cats’ footprints were here and there. Jessie couldn’t image what would happen after her mom saw this scene.

     I was very lucky that Wei sat in front of me. He always studied hard and did well on all the tests. However, he wasn’t pride at all. Wei always patiently taught the others who had failed the test. Everyone liked him very much and so did I.

     I never forget that day. When I did so badly on the mid-term exam, everyone laugh at me. I was very sad and cried loudly. I wanted to give up on myself. Meanwhile, Wei kindly came to comfort me, which touched me very much. He said, “Never give up. Practice makes prefect. Give yourself one more chance. If you have any problem, I am ready to help you, Look on the bright side, and you will feel better. ”

     After that, I restored my faith, and studied harder than before. I appreciated his help very much. If I will meet him again in the future, I can pay him back.

     Suddenly, some noise was coming from the living room. When Mary was going to see what happened outside, a strong gorilla came in. Mary was so scared, that she broke up the plate. However, the dog wasn’t afraid; it was eating the food on the floor happily.

And she said, “you are always protected me when I was in trouble.” Jhon smiled happily, and took out a lot of flowers. He said,”Marry me! I will make tou happy forever.” “I will. I love you.”Mary said.
