When I was little, I wanted to play basketball for school. But I wasn’t good at it. I kept on ________ though.
I started playing in the 2nd grade. My brother, who was the 7th grade, would always help me. He would the basket on purpose(故意) so I wouldn’t lose against him. One day, though, another boy shouted at my brother: “ Go away! You fool!” My brother had to stop basketball with me. I felt so that I wanted to stop playing. About a week later, though, I saw my brother play in a real game. He was so good that I realized I had to keep playing.
Now five years later I start in my school’s basketball . All my hard work has paid off.
I always tell others never to give up, either. If someone puts you , remember they are only one person, and you must never stop trying.
Never giving up helped me in other ways too.
At school, when someone told me that algebra (代数) is too hard for me to understand, I decided not to give up. I knew that if I just kept on trying, I would it in the end. Again, it took a lot of work, but now I understand algebra well.
You have to keep on trying, even when it hurts you so much that every part of your body you to stop. When you finally become a success, you’ll know that the reason you have become successful is that you gave up.
