“Never give up!” It is my law(法则) of my life. It has brought me. I learned the law from my father’sstory.
My father wasin a poor village in the north of Jiangsu, in China. When he was a young boy, he went to school in the morning, thenin the fields till sunset. And then he did his homeworkmidnight. Life was hard, because they had no!
At the age of 14, my father heard of the United States of America. It was the land of gold, the land wherepeople can become rich.
“ don’t I go to America?” he said to himself, full of hope.
So, my father came to America. “ I had thought it was easy tomoney in America,” he told me. “But when I arrived there, I realized it was not true. They did not like to hire（雇佣） me because I spokeEnglish. Later, I worked in a small restaurant, cleaning up tables,dishes and sweeping the floor. Life wasfor the first few years. I worked from 10a.m to 11p.m. I wanted to go to school to learn English, but it was impossible. I couldn’tthe schooling(学费).
My fatherworking hard, and reached his goal.
“Alan,” he often says to me, “If you want something, you have to work for it and never give up. Things do not come in life.” That is what I learned from my father.
