Father and Me
Last summer holiday, my father taught me how to ride a bike. On weekends,
I learnt to ride it with my father.
At first, I felt very nervous. I often fell down from my bike. My father encouraged me to be brave. And he helped me and protected me. Then I was not so worried.
I could ride it slowly. After two weekends, I learned it. I could ride it by myself.
I was so excited. My father was proud of me, too.
For me, the love and support of my family give me power. I am really grateful
to my family and I will love them forever.

A loving moment of a family.
Mum, my sister Zihan and me. We three sat in front of Mum’s computer. The photo came on the screen. Four smiling faces.
Every year, we take a family’s photo together during the Spring Festival. But this year’s photo was different. Dad is abroad, building a high-speed railway. And we kept our family tradition alive with the help of social media. It was Zihan’s idea. We had an online meeting, and one, two, three, cheese! I think it is our family’s best photo. We are a family, together or far away.
