I did not know why I had chosen to be here. It felt as though my mind were at home, sitting and watching television, feeling relaxed and having fun, and yet my body was standing here in absolute fear. I looked in the mirror again. My face had been washed clean before applying the heavy make-up. My skin looked deathly white and powdered so that there was no shininess. My eyes looked dark and I was wearing lipstick. I should have been thrilled that I was allowed to wear make-up, but somehow, this didn’t feel like a treat.
Now I had to wait. How easy it should be to simply wait but this felt like a never-ending suffering. I stared at my white shoes as I stretched my feet, trying to distract myself from the way I felt. This dressing room was not small, but there were lots of girls in here. Mum and Dad were sitting in the audience but I was missing them so much. I wished they had been here with me. They were only on the other side of the stage, but that felt like a world away. The speaker asked for the black swans (天鹅) to get ready and as a sudden rush of girls danced into line and headed off towards the stage, I knew that I would be called next. My hands felt wet and sticky. I did not want to go on stage. I did not want the audience staring at me as I performed.
I tried to sit down but it was difficult when you were wearing a tutu (芭蕾舞裙). I wanted to rest my forehead on the mirror, but I knew that I would ruin my make-up and that wouldn’t do. The speaker was asking again, “Calling for white swans, will all white swans make their way to the stage?” I shook my arms, and joined the queue of other white swans. I felt really faint now and I wanted to be sick. I looked around in desperation, waiting to catch the eye of someone, anyone, who could get me out and save me.

It was early morning, yet already it had been a very bad day. One thing after another, the downward spiral (螺旋) continued when a large bottle of orange juice slid from my hands and fell to the floor. Glass and sticky juice splashed to the farthest corners of the kitchen. Shocked, I looked at the mess. Then I dropped heartbrokenly down to the floor, my eyes filling with tears. The tears seemed to show that “today is just not my day.”
Bad day or not, things had to be done. Filled with anxiety and negative mental baggage, I got in my car to drive into town. In the few minutes it took to travel to the bank I made a decision. I would be careful not to pass my bad day off to anyone else. I would be friendly and polite. And I would NOT be angry when that careless driver pulled quickly and rudely in front of me causing me to brake suddenly.
Standing in line at the bank, I was silently talking to myself. Actually, I was scolding myself. All of the events that had accumulated and contributed to my bad day were, in reality, so very minor and trivial. I was over-reacting. I was filled with self-pity. I tried to imagine the innumerable, individual lives that had been affected by terrorist attacks, by war, by hurricanes, earthquakes, and other natural disasters.
For the second time that day my eyes filled with tears as I realized how disconnected I felt from all those individuals who are trying to cope with truly miserable experiences in their lives.
They all seemed so distant and unknowable, and this justified and strengthened my belief that I was being self-centered and selfish. I was sure that all my efforts to be a caring and loving person were in vain.
A voice broke through my mental distractions. Somehow I had mechanically finished my bank transaction (交易) and the teller was trying to get my attention. “Young lady,” she was saying, gently, “Young lady!”

As a little boy, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather’s farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stonewalls, the house and barn provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me. I was used to the city’s bright and neat living rooms which always seemed to whisper, “Not to be touched!”
I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I’d wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stonewalls surrounding the property. My parents would never approve. The walls were old: some stones were missing, others loose and crumbling (倒塌). Still, my desire to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally, one spring afternoon, I picked up all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.
“I, uh, I want to climb the stonewalls,” I said hesitantly. Everyone looked up. “Can I climb the stonewalls?” Instantly a sound went up from the women in the room. “Oh, no!” they cried in shock. “Fred, you’ll hurt yourself!” I wasn’t too disappointed; the response was just as I’d expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather’s booming voice. “Now hold on just a minute,” I heard him say, “Let the boy climb the stone-walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.”

A long time ago, there was a huge (大的) apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it every day. He climbed to the tree, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow… He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
Time went by…The little boy grew up and he no longer played around the tree. One day, the boy came back to the tree and looked sad. The boy told the tree that he wanted the toys but he didn't have money. The tree asked the boy to pick all the apples and sell them. The boy did it and left happily. He didn't come back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.
One day, the boy returned again and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I don’t have time to play. I have to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” “Sorry, I don’t have a house.” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily but the boy never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.
One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I’m said and getting tired. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” “Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.
Paragraph1:
Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years.

I never imagined that one day my dream would come true. It was last winter vacation that I received a task: planning for an English show. As a teenager who always dreamed of being a director. I was so excited.
However, the process was not as easy as I had thought. We spent a lot of time choosing the clips that we were going to play. Finally, we decided on an American musical film from 2017. The Greatest Showman. All of the creators were amazed by the stories and splendid scenes. I wrote the first script in two days, and our assistant director made great efforts on the casting process. Our main actors did their best to sing the theme songs: A Million Dreams. The Greatest Shoe and This is Me. These three songs were truly hard for us to sing, but with the help of our sound director, they all made great progress.

On March 16, 2020, my left leg was injured. After the operation, I realized I needed additional care, so I had to stay at the Kindness Home near my family. It was a very good experience to live there and discover firsthand what it meant to be in need of such a healing (治愈) space as the Kindness Home. I had never thought that I would need to stay there
Some of the boys there helped me a lot. They lived with me and cared for me as family. They were so kind and helpful. I liked them so much. I was also very thankful to my family for their unconditional love and care. They helped me a lot in recovery. I was also very thankful to all my friends for their continuous good wishes for my fast recovery.
I developed a healing garden at the Kindness Home during my recovery Planting flowers and various plants helped me heal. It had a calming effect to water them, care for them and watch them grow. The garden helped heal me. As I nurtured (培育)the garden, I was nurtured.
Slowly, time passed and my leg recovered. I started again to walk and do my work. I am feeling very calm and relaxed.
At the time of struggle and especially in tough situations, we feel the need of someone who can spend time with us and care for us. Their kind presence gives me so much strength and support, and it is also true that those are people we can’t hire from the market or any other places. They just exist in our hearts and in our family and friends. They never come for money or pride. They just need our love and friendship. I decided to do something to show thanks to those who had helped me.
