    When I was a child, my father influenced me a lot. My father is a kindness person, who always taught me how to be a good person. The most important thing I remember was that my father usually cared more about me and my mother than anything else. My father affected that I was a caring teenager, and now I am the person who usually care more about my friends’ feeling. It is because when I was live with my father, his daily life was affect me.

    I really admire my mother, because she is kind and capable. When I was a child, I am fun-loving. When I make some mistakes, she just said everything alright and she forgive me all times. My mother have a high basic knowledge, and she want me to get more higher education, than her try her best to make money and support me to study abroad. Now, I want try my best to study and thank my lovely mother.

  3. In my memory, when I was child, my mother has influenced me the most. My mom is a writer and likes writing varied things. She often required me to write daily notes. Every evening, my mom accompanied me to do homework. She sat behind me and read some books, and never watched TV or did other irrelevant things when I was doing my homework. As a result, my mom built a harmonies learning atmosphere. When I was a teenager, my mom often taught me how to write compositions well. Once I joined a school competition contest, with my mother’s guidance, I won a prize. Gradually, I started to enjoy writing. Until now, I still keep the habit of writing a diary. sometimes, when I go traveling, I love carrying my booklet with me and put down my observation in it. This allowed me record a fuller picture of events, thoughts and emotions.

  4. Upon mentioning the person I admire, my grandfather comes to my mind undoubtedly. He was an optimistic person who had big and charming smile on his face all the time. He always told me that we could not expect everything happened were smoothly or had wonderful results, but just reminded that everything happened had its meaning. There is no doubt that it is impossible for people never encounter obstacles as well as frustrations, therefore being an optimist will help you feel batter and hopeful as you struggle in difficulties. Actually, my grandfather’s quote really had big effects on me. To date, I still encourage myself to be positive by this quote when I down in the dumps.
