My Life Motto
People have mottos to live by and I am no exception. “You only live once.” That’s my motto, which means so
limited is life that we should make the most of it to live the way we won’t regret it.
Ever since I first came across the sentence in a book at an early age, it has served as my life guideline. Every
time I am in a dilemma to make a difficult decision, it inspires me to stick to my heart and initial intention to do the
right thing. Every time I am about to give up, it inspires me to gather up courage to overcome the hardships and go
on.
I believe my motto is making me a better individual and everyone needs one. what is your motto?
第二节
The test was cruelly challenging for Javon. Undoubtedly, all the problems involved letters that threw Javon in
confusion. Scratching his head hard and shifting restlessly in his seat, he was struggling with every problem and
trying to work them out. As the minutes ticked by, the test time was up. Javon found himself not even having one
problem completed. Having submitted the paper, he felt the scholarship was slipping through his fingers, leaving
him in great despair and a total loss how to face his parents who had always been working hard to pay the bills. That
night at home, much to his amazement, they didn’t blame him after learning about his test performance. Instead,
they comforted him and suggested he talk with Mr. T.
Following his parents’ advice, Javon knocked on the door of Mr. T’s office. After being admitted into the
office, Javon was guilty and tense. Nevertheless, he gathered up courage and whispered, “Mr. T, my test...” He
didn’t continue as Mr. T presented his test paper with an “F” on it. Seeing the grade, Javon was seized with a sense
of disappointment at himself, tears welling up in his eyes and his mind blank. After what seemed several minutes,
he heard Mr. T asking, “What did you do when having difficulty reaching for your gym locker?” Suddenly, Javon
realized he should have asked Mr. T for help just like he had asked Ms. Haygood to get his gym locker changed.
That day when stepping out of Mr. T’s office, Javon felt a weight off his heart, reflecting upon how to study widely
next.
