挑战自我 Competition with myself

　　When my teacher told me to prepare for this competition I restated, hesitated.Everybody in my class knows that. I never learned English in my primary school.I couldn't speak English one year ago, but now, could I take part in this competition? No, I can't. Is aid to myself? I'm afraid of making mistakes before so many learned professors and before my classmates and teachers.Suddenly!

　　A voice came to my ears.“Everybody will make mistakes. Even the very famous American president George Bush” My English teacher said in my class.When I heard that, I think I can. I run into my teacher's office happily. “I will do it.” I said. So I stand here today. In front of you.

　　当我的老师告诉我准备比赛时，我重申了一下，我班上的每个人都知道。我在小学从来没有学过英语，一年前我不会说英语，但是现在，我能参加这个比赛吗?不，我不能。对自己有帮助吗?我害怕在这么多博学的教授面前，在我的同学和老师面前犯错误!

　　我听到一个声音：“每个人都会犯错。即使是非常著名的美国总统乔治·布什“我的英语老师在我的课堂上说，当我听到这个，我想我可以。我高兴地跑进老师的办公室。“我会做的，”我说。所以我今天站在这里。在你面前。
