爸爸的手像工匠的手，

他替弟弟作了一張書桌；

爸爸的手像園丁的手，

他替妹妹栽種了一株玫瑰花；

爸爸的手是帶給我們快樂的韆鞦，

讓我們在上面盪來盪去；

爸爸的手雖然那麼粗壯，

但當我們哭了，

他的手，總是溫柔地叫我們不要傷心。

   上星期四，正當我放學回家的時候，在路上看到一個白髮蒼蒼的老婆婆正在翻着路旁的垃圾箱。當時火烘烘的太陽正在她頭上燃燒着，一粒粒豆大的汗珠滿佈在她的額頭。雖然是那樣辛苦，但她還是全神貫注地尋東西。我走上前問她想找甚麼，但她只側着半邊臉，瞧了我一眼便繼續她的工作。

    當我正欲離開之際，突然她好像找到了寶貝似的，臉上露出一個燦爛的笑容，原來她撿到了幾個汽水罐！我內心頓時感到十分難過，一個汽水罐只值幾分錢，但卻使她樂透，我相信她的生活定是十分困苦，因此我便下決心要幫她一把！可是，我只是一個小孩，我能為她做甚麼呢？

    最後，我把媽媽給我吃午餐的零用錢送給她。雖然我要捱餓，但當看到她滿心歡喜地對我說感謝，我心裏不其然感到一絲絲的快慰，而且還明白了「助人為快樂之本」這話的真諦呢！

    每一個人天資的高低都不一樣，有些人天資聰穎，也有些人天資笨拙。也許有人認為，一個天資聰敏和一個天資笨拙的人做同一件事，必然是聰明人的成功率較高，但只要我們細心一想，便會發現那不是必然的，成功與否，還取決於他付出的努力。

    一個比較聰明的人，他擁有的條件固然是比一個較愚笨的人為高，但他若自以為聰明便不努力，那成功也自然會離他而去。

    反之，一個較愚笨的人，雖然天資不及他人，但他只要勤下苦功，別人看一次便懂的，他可翻看多遍，所謂「有志者，事竟成」，最終他們定能取得成功，不會輸給那些聰明卻不努力的人。

    愛迪生曾說過：「九十九分努力，加上一分天資，便是成功的法則。」這不是一個很好的啟示嗎？一個聰明的人，不要自以為聰明便不用功。天資稍遜的人，也不要以為自己愚笨便放棄，「世上無難事，只怕有心人」，只要願意努力，世上沒有難成的事，你和我也可以成為一個成功的人啊！

        Last summer holiday, I went to Taiwan with my mum, dad and sister. It was really fun and exciting there!

        On the first day, we went to a big beach to swim. When we arrived, I saw a lot of golden sand and the beautiful sea. I ran to the sea quickly and jumped into the water. “Cool! I can swim like a fish!” I thought. Then, we built a sandcastle on the beach. I built a grand huge sandcastle and my sister made a sea turtle. We even buried Daddy in the sand and made him a mermaid tail! It was really fun! In the evening, we went to a restaurant to eat fresh seafood. How delicious!

        The next day, we went to a big forest. There were a lot of flowers and trees which were very colourful. There were some cute animals like birds, monkeys and squirrels too. Among all the animals there, I liked squirrels the best. Big eyes, bobbly tails and tiny mouths, they were really cute! At night, we had dinner in the hotel. We ate Taiwanese noodles and fish. Then, we watched television in the room happily.

        On the last day, we went shopping all day. First, we went to a shopping mall to buy clothes and food. I bought a really beautiful dress and a pair of shoes with cute cats on top. I bought an ice-cream too. Then, we went to a night market to have dinner. We ate a lot of traditional food of Taiwan and watched the magnificent night view. It’s really beautiful!

        After the travel in Taiwan, I learnt so much about this place. I felt so excited throughout the trip. Taiwan is really an amazing place. This was definitely the most unforgettable trip that I have never had!

        I had a wonderful summer vacation last year. Do you know what made it so wonderful? It’s the amazing trip to Thailand! I went to Pattaya in Thailand with my family last summer holiday. It was an unforgettable experience which I would never forget!

        On the first day, when we arrived at the five-star hotel, I was surprised by the beautiful and stunning view! I noticed that there was a beach. I shouted, “Wow, what a wonderful view! Dad, I want to swim right now, can I?” I begged. “OK!” Dad answered. After we changed our own swimwear, we ran to the beach at once. My elder sister and I jumped into the sea happily. Then, we built a sandcastle. I had never touched soft sand before, at that moment, I really wanted to bring some back to Hong Kong! The Pattaya beach was big enough, so it wasn’t too crowded even there were a lot of people. There were also a lot of trees around the beach, so we felt really relaxed.

        On the second day, we took a walk on the beach again, I noticed that there was a hawker helping a little girl to tie a lot of pigtails. It was interesting, so I walked to the hawker with my sister to have a closer look at the little girl’s hairstyle. After having a look, we tried the same style as the little girl finally. Soon, we learnt that it’s the traditional Thailand hairstyle. We kept that Thailand hairstyle until we went back home. How crazy we were!

        At last, we were all hungry, so we went to a Thai restaurant by taking a “tuk tuk” to have our supper. Do you know what a “tuk tuk” is? It is the common road transport in Thailand. It is cheap and convenient. However, there is no door for a “tuk tuk”, but don’t be scared, it is safe because the drivers in Thailand drive slowly and safely.

        I had a relaxing time in Thailand. I was also glad that my family and I had an amazing trip together. The trip has left a lot of beautiful and memorable footprints in my heart. I hope I can go to Thailand again!

        Meg Grinny is my younger sister. She is only seven this year. She has blonde, curly long hair. She usually ties her hair in plaits but sometimes she wears her hair loose. She has moon-shaped eyebrows and her eyes are as bright as crystals. She has a flat nose and rosy cheeks. She is really really adorable!

        Meg is a kind, friendly and sweet little girl. She is always willing to give a hand to others when they are in need. She’s helpful and smart. She always tries her best to help others. She has saved most of her money to help the needy. She also learns things very fast. Once I told her how to mix different colours using blue, yellow and red, she can do it on her own at once!

        Meg likes to play the piano and the violin. She also likes to do Jazz and Kpop dance. Moreover, she likes reading books and collecting CDs from different pianists and violinists. There was a time I asked her which book she liked the most and she answered me, “Harry Potter!” I was very surprised to know that she could read such a thick book with so many difficult words!

        This is my younger sister and the cutest girl ever—Meg Grinny!
