高一英语作文：
Back to childhood
if i were a boy again, i would practice perseverance more often,
and never give up a thing
because it was or inconvenient. if we want
light, we must conquer darkness.
perseverance can sometimes equal
genius
in its results
. “there are only two creatures,” says a proverb,
“who can
surmount the pyramids
---
the eagle and the snail.”
if
i
were
a
boy
again,
i
would
school
myself
into
a
habit
of
attention; i would let
nothing come between
me and the subject in
hand. i would remember that a good
skater never tries to skate in two
directions at habit of attention
becomes part of our life, if
we begin
early enough. i often hear grown up people say “ i
could
not fix my attention on the
sermon or book, although i wished to do
so” , and the reason is, the habit was
not formed in youth.
if i were to live my life over again, i would pay more attention to
the
cultivation
of
the
memory.
i
would
strengthen
that
faculty
by
every possible means, and on
every possible occasion. it takes a little
hard work at first to remember things
accurately; but memory soon
helps
itself,
and
gives
very
little
trouble.
it
only
needs
early
cultivation to become a power.
