My daughter Eyen is ten years old. She is in Grade Three in a primary school. She is a cute girl though(虽然) she has some interesting ideas sometimes.
One day she asks me, “Mum, what is your favourite subject?” I think for a while and answer, “It is difficult to tell. I love singing, so music is my favorite. And I am good at English. My history teacher also says I am excellent. Well, I can say I don’t like science. But science is important for us, you know. So you must do well in it. What is your favourite subject, Eyen? Tell me something about your subjects, dear.”
“I like Chinese. It is easy. I like English because my English teacher likes me very much. I can’t stand(忍受) Maths. It is serious(严肃的) and sad.”
