The most positive(乐观的) person I have ever seen is may dad! He is so positive that I do not 46 hearing a single word from him which is related(相关的) to hopelessness!
Unlike most mums and dads, my dad never says things that make me feel 47 . He is always there to give me encouragement and help. 48 I do wrong things, he always tells me what’s right in a positive way. For example, if I am in 49 , he often tells me to open the books he bought me. Then he asks me to read the 50 that can help me with the problems I’m facing. After that, we have a 51 together.
Even though I’m not always a good kid, my dad 52 shouts or gets angry with me. I know that he’s 53a day—a day when I grow up and understand things in my life.
I can see the reason that he is so positive is because he believes in 54 . And he believes that whatever 55 , it is under control. So we have nothing to worry about. Be positive!
