Last
Saturday, David was taking a walk in the park near his home when he
noticed a woman with a boy of about eight years old. When David passed
them, he heard the woman yell, “How stupid you are! You're good at
nothing.” David stopped and looked at the little boy. The boy said nothing.
He just stood there, looking upset.
David
was reminded of his English teacher Mrs. Brown in middle school. After he
entered middle school, David lacked (缺乏)
self-confidence because he was often made fun of by others. He was often told
that he was good at nothing, which David believed. But one day it all
changed.
One
day, in an English writing class, Mrs. Brown asked them to read a novel. They
were asked to write a new chapter of the novel after they finished reading the
book. A few days later, David handed in his story. He didn't give it much
thought. But the next day to his surprise, the comment “well done” from Mrs.
Brown came into view the moment he turned to the page where the story was
written.
When
David read that, he almost burst into tears. He never expected to be praised
one day. He suddenly got some self-confidence.
That
day after he returned home, he wrote a short story and gave it to Mrs. Brown
the next morning. And again he was praised.
David
became very interested in writing. He often wrote short stories and asked Mrs.
Brown to read them. Mrs. Brown always corrected the mistakes he had made and
gave him good advice to improve them. One year later, David joined the
school newspaper and became an editor of it. He was no longer that boy who
lacked self-confidence. He got his confidence and was hopeful about his
future.
He succeeded
in entering college and kept writing. Several years after graduating from
college, he had his first book published. With some more books coming out, he
became famous as a writer in his country. And he owed (归功于) his success to Mrs. Brown's encouragement. Without her
encouragement, his life might be very different.

Encouraged
by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy.
答案: Encouraged by his own life story, David decided to do something for that boy. He went to the woman and told her that what she said to her boy was not proper. Then he told her about the encouragement he once got from Mrs. Brown. In the end, he said, "I couldn't have become a writer if I had believed I was good at nothing." The mother was ashamed when she heard that. So she said, "Thank you for your advice. I'll never say such things to him again." The woman then left with the boy. David hoped his action could make some difference to the boy.
