“Never give up!” It is my law(法则) of life. It has brought me . I learned the law from my father's story.
My father was in a poor village in the north of Jiangsu, in China. When he was a young boy, he went to school in the morning, then in the fields till sunset. And then he did his homework midnight. Life was hard, because they had no !
At the age of 14, my father heard of the United States of America. It was the land of gold, the land where people can become rich.
“ don't I go to America?” he thought to himself, full of hope.
So,my father came to America. “I had thought it was easy to money in America,” he told me. “But when I arrived there,I realized it was not true. They did not like to hire(雇佣) me because I spoke English. Later,I worked in a small restaurant, cleaning up tables, dishes and sweeping the floor. Life was for the first few years. I worked from 10 a. m. to 11 p. m. I wanted to go to school to learn English, but it was impossible. I couldn't the schooling(学费).”
My father working hard, and reached his goal.
“Alan,” he often says to me. “If you want something, you have to work for it and never give up. Things do not come in life.” That is what I learned from my father.

As a teenager, I am often asked what I am going to be in the future. A lawyer ? A doctor ? Or a scientist ? No, my ideal career is to be a teacher. One of the for that is I want to be a teacher like Mr. Chen.
“Look! Do you know what it is? A-ha, it’s the ! And it will always move around the sun.” Mr. Chen said and pointed to his head. He then touched the nose and , “Can you tell me the name of this mountain? It is the highest mountain on Earth! What’s the of it? Yes, it’s 8844.43 metres…” I’ll never forget my first geography lesson. He was humorous that we all fell in love with his lessons . It’s Mr. Chen who opened the door of geography for us.
Generally speaking, most of the teachers are strict students and sometimes a little bit demanding(苛求的), not so with Mr. Chen. He is a lighthouse, showing us the way to the treasure of knowledge. He is a friend and easy to get with, always encouraging us to speak out loud without our shyness and other disadvantages. He is an example, volunteering his time to students and other teachers.
One day I happened to meet him in the hospital. Seeing the cut on his arm, I realized he was donating his . I was moved and was another lesson, a lesson of love and devotion.
Every time I see my globe(地球仪), it would me of Mr. Chen. He is the most unforgettable teacher I have met and he will always be. Someday I hope I am to be a teacher like him.
Thank you, Mr Chen, thank you for making learning not a job but a joy.
Thank you for helping me to discover what I do best and to do it even .
Thank you for understanding all of us and giving us the time and care each of us needs.
