A Good Role Model
一個好榜樣
I'm the eldest child in my family, so I need to set a good example for my two little cousins. I learnt from my mother. She is my role model. Mum was also the eldest child in her family. She has two younger brothers. Mum was always calm, fair, and wise beyond her years. Even when Mum was only six years old, she used to share with her brothers. If there was one piece of cake, Mum would cut it into three pieces and let her brothers choose their pieces first. I do the same with my cousins.
我是家里面最大的孩子，所以我需要給我的兩個堂弟堂妹做個好榜樣。我從媽媽那里學到了該怎么做，她就是我的榜樣。媽媽也是她家里面最大的孩子，她有兩個弟弟。媽媽以前有著超越她年齡的冷靜，公平和聰慧。當媽媽六歲的時候，常常和她的弟弟們一起吃東西。如果只有一塊蛋糕，媽媽會把它分成三份，讓她的弟弟們先選，我也用這樣的方法給堂弟堂妹分東西。
Mum says that if I do the right things, my cousins will do the right things, too. I work hard at school, and I try to be helpful and kind all the time. As soon as I finish my homework, I always ask Grandma if I can help her with anything. Sometimes she wants me to help with the housework, but usually she just asks me to help my cousins with their homework.
媽媽說如果我做的是正確的事情，我的弟弟妹妹也會做正確的事情。我在學校努力學習，我盡力一直樂于助人、善待他人。我做完作業后總會問我奶奶需不需要幫忙。有時候她會讓我幫忙做家務，但是通常情況下，她會讓我輔導我弟弟妹妹做作業。
Sometimes, there's a lot of pressure to be a good role model, but it makes me stronger. I guess I'm lucky to have Mum as an example. I hope that I can do as well as Mum, and that when my cousins grow up, they respect me as much as Mum's brothers respect her.
有時候，想做好榜樣需要承受很大的壓力，但是這會讓我變得更強大。我覺得有媽媽作為我的榜樣我很幸運。我希望我能和媽媽做的一樣好，當我的弟弟妹妹長大的時候，他們會像媽媽的弟弟們尊重媽媽那樣尊重我。
