12.Last weekend,I took Lucy to a park,where she discovered a track with large bumps(凸塊)and sharp turns.At first,I thought Lucy was able to ride her bike along the track,but she quickly found that her bike was too low for the bumps and kept getting stuck on top of the bumps. Lucy looked at me with fear because she was still a biking newbie.I tried to encourage her,but really,I was thinkingthis is going to be a disaster.Not because I thought she would get hurt.More because I thought she wouldn't be able to pick up enough speed to balance,and then she would get really discouraged,and give up quickly.I imagined her throwing her bicycle to the ground and then crying all the way home. But I was only half right.Lucy did have a lot of trouble riding the bike.She couldn't find her balance.She fell many times.At one point,she almost started crying because younger kids were getting angry that she was slowing everyone else down.But she did not give up.She kept picking herself up and trying again.She even took the bike off the track and into the main park to practice pushing off and picking up speed on a flat ground.When she felt more confident,she came back.Then she did it over and over again until she finally reached her goal of going around the whole track without falling once.Then she didn't want to leave and everyone was cheering her on. This was not a day that ended in a disaster.It was a day when Lucy learned that perseverance pays off.

24.We each have a memory.That's why we can remember things after a long time.Some people have a very good memory and they can easily learn many things by heart,but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again.A good memory helps one learn a language well.Everybody learns his own language when he is a small child.He hears the sounds,remembers them and then he learns to speak.Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries.They can learn two languages easily because they hear,remember and speak the two languages every day.In school it is not easy to learn a foreign language because the students have little time for it and they have to learn other subjects,too. Our memory can get better and better if we do more and more exercises.Do you want to learn a foreign language well?If so,you must do a lot of listening and speaking.
