When I was in kindergarten, I was such a naughty boy that I could not even sit quietly for over three minutes. Whenever I was free from going to kindergarten, I would rush out of my home and play with my friends until the very night. Maybe many of my peers were preparing for primary school, but I still enjoyed myself playing all day long.

However, mum rarely scolded me for that. Instead, she decided to arouse my curiosity with her patience. As I was not willing to read even a short fairy tale, she would read story books to me every day before I went to sleep. Her voice was slow yet emotional, and gradually, I was transported to the wonderland. As days went by, I started to hold a book in the evening and had a good time with words as well as pictures. In the meantime, I had so many peculiar questions that I could not help asking mum. Ridiculous as they might be, she always had enough patience to answer them. Probably, that is the reason for my curiosity about new things.

As my interest in the world increased, I loved to ask a large range of questions to my mother, especially before lunch and supper. I went to extremes again, for I gained so much pleasure in the process that I never wanted to eat anything at the table. Mum did not ignore my bad habit. She told me that only if I had lunch and supper would she answer the questions. I often got ill during my childhood, but I did not become very thin eventually thanks to mum.

In primary school, although there was only a little homework and it was usually quiet easy for me, I was always unwilling to do it. It was mum, who was engaged in her work in the meantime, that always urged me to finish it carefully. I have developed a good habit of taking seriously all my tasks since then, and now, I can still see a similar quality from mum.

Mum is an ordinary woman, without which, nonetheless, it would be impossible for me to stand here and share my unique background. Those years were essential to me in that that period of time has played an important part in making me what I am today.

当我在幼儿园的时候，我是个淘气的孩子，我甚至不能安静地坐三分钟以上。每当我有空去幼儿园的时候，我都会冲出家门和我的朋友们玩到晚上。也许我的很多同龄人都在为小学做准备，但我还是喜欢整天玩。 但是，妈妈很少因为这个责备我。相反，她决定用她的耐心引起我的好奇心。因为我甚至不愿意读一个短篇的童话故事，她每天都会在我睡觉前给我读故事书。她的声音很慢但很激动，渐渐地，我被带到了仙境。随着时间的推移，我晚上开始拿一本书，玩得很开心，既有文字也有图片。同时，我有很多奇怪的问题，我忍不住问妈妈。尽管他们可能很可笑，但她总是有足够的耐心来回答他们。也许，这就是我对新事物好奇的原因。 随着我对这个世界越来越感兴趣，我喜欢向我母亲问很多问题，特别是在午饭和晚饭前。我又走到了极端，因为我在这个过程中获得了太多的乐趣，以至于我不想在餐桌上吃任何东西。妈妈没有忽视我的坏习惯。她告诉我，只有我吃午饭和晚饭，她才会回答问题。我小时候经常生病，但由于妈妈的帮助，我最终并没有变得很瘦。 在小学，虽然只有一点家庭作业，而且平时安静、容易，但我总是不愿意做。正是妈妈在这段时间里忙于她的工作，她总是敦促我认真地完成它。从那以后，我养成了认真对待所有任务的好习惯，现在，我仍然能从妈妈那里看到类似的品质。 妈妈是一个普通的女人，没有她，我就不可能站在这里分享我的独特背景。那些年对我来说是至关重要的，在那一段时间里，对我今天的成就起了重要作用。
