During my childhood, I was looking forward to growing up. When I began to learn math, I couldn't tell “6” from “9”. The two numbers looked the same to me. This was the beginning of my struggles(挣扎)in school. The teachers in the kindergarten(幼儿园) let students work out some math problems. But at that time, I still couldn't understand which one was “9” and which one was “6”. The teacher said, “You are a stupid kid.” My tears poured down like heavy rain on a summer night.

My parents were top students when they were young. So they had a high expectation for me. They said, “If you don't do well in school, you'll get a spanking(打屁股)．”

As time went by, I became a middle school student. Math was still a big problem. I was afraid to get bad grades and I often argued with my parents. I was very worried and tired out and I no longer wanted to grow up.

However, one day I realized that my painful times wouldn't stay with me for my whole life. My pain may be there for a moment, but it will leave after I learn how to deal with it. And all of these painful experiences well reward me, as long as I don't give up. What I need to do is making progress by trying and working as hard as I can.

The Paper Boy

Before I could turn 10, I had lost my parents. To support myself and my education, I began to deliver newspapers.

I would get up every morning at 5 am and walk five kilometers from Hydery to the newspaper office in Bazar. By 6 am, I would collect 50 copies of newspaper which must have weighed over five kilos. After delivering them, I would rush home, another three kilometers away, cook my breakfast, eat quickly and go to school.

One morning, I found a boy of my age at my doorstep. He introduced himself as Jimmy and said his parents wanted to see me. I guessed they wished to subscribe to (订阅) the newspaper, so I followed him to his place nearby.

Jimmy's mother opened the door. She served me a large plate of snacks and fruit salad. It was a rich breakfast, one that brought back memories of the happy time with my parents. As I was about to leave, Jimmy's father, Mr. Kader, appeared with a new bicycle.

"This is for you!" He said, patting my shoulder.

"But I have no money!" I replied.

"Who is asking you to pay for this, my son?" He continued.

It took me a few seconds to sense the warm moment. I didn't even realize my tears were rolling down my face. Jimmy's mother held me closely. It was like home, as if my mother were there.

I bowed, thankfully, and left. This time, I didn't have to walk—I had the bicycle!
