Just Average
普普通通
In my third year of school, something happened and my attitude about working hard changed. I'm not sure what it was, but something encouraged me to study a little harder for this one particular test we were going to have at school.
我在三年级时发生了一件事，改变了我对努力认真的态度，我不确定是什么事，不过那件事鼓励我对学校即将展开的小考，再多用功点。
In my whole life, I was always just an average student. My parents seemed to think I could do better and reminded me of this all the time. In many ways, their nagging 1 made it so I didn't want to study or work hard. Of course this caused problems when it came to getting grades back.
我从小到大一直都是个普通的学生，我父母似乎认为我可以做得更好，因此经常提醒我这点，他们大事小事都要唠叨，使得我更不想要用功念书，当然啰，每次拿成绩单回家，免不了又会有问题。
Well, like I said there was this one test. Four days I prepared for it! On the day of the test I remember feeling very confident and found the tast fairly 2 easy to write.
不过这次小考，我花了四天准备！考试当天，我记得感觉非常有自信，而且发现考试很简单。
The following day we got our test scores back. I had the top grade! Needless 3 to say, my parents were very happy with me. More important though, I realized that I could be more than just average. A lesson I learned 4 by proving to myself, not because someone else told me.
隔天我拿到考试分数，我考满分！不用说我父母也很满意我的表现，不过重要的是，我了解到我可以不只是普普通通，并没有人告诉我这一点，而是我向自己证明了这一点。
