中学生习作

   There are a lot of people who have made or are making the world a better place with their work. Among them, teachers are the ones most familiar to me.

   Eight years ago, I got a chance to study in England for two years. There I met my teacher Mrs. Maxwell. She taught all our lessons except music and physical education. Although she was very busy she was always ready to pay special attention to those who had troubles in learning. She never blamed us for learning too slow. She just explained again and again. Seeing the smile on her face and the hope in her eyes, how could we have the heart to let her down?

    She was especially good to me — a foreign student. Once she used her money to buy me an English exercise book. In the days that followed, you can l often see these pictures: there she was, sitting beside me, explaining the new words and expressions. This went on until I finished the whole book and my English was greatly improved. I thanked my teacher from the bottom of my heart.

   Also, I got to know that Mrs. Maxwell had to spend two and a half hours to travel to work each day, yet she was never absent and never late. This made me admire and love her even more. I will remember her always, no matter where I am and what I do, for she is the one who gives out her eternal love without asking for repay meat.

    When I entered middle school in Beijing, I came to know Mrs. Chen. She was in charge of our class and she wanted us to be good in every way. So once she suggested that we should join the Hope project. An-other time, she asked us to hand in a report on how we spend our pocket money in order to guide our ways of spending .She loved us as much as she loved her own daughter. Only she spent much more time on us than on her own child .She worked on weekdays, at weekends and even during holidays and she was always happy to do so. It seemed that nothing in the world could please her more than teaching her students and in return see them make progress day by day.

    If we are flower buds, our teachers are the gardeners that water us and help us to bloom. If we are ships sailing in the sea, our teachers are the hopes of tomorrow, our teachers are the people upholding these glorious hopes.

    Every man, no matter how great he is, respects his teachers, because they are the people who work with their heart and soul to make the world a better place, for their students and for the entire human race.
