It all started when Tom called me to join him in a game of basketball. He said that Jack and some other boys would be there too. I had finished my homework and had nothing else to do so I agreed. Tom told me to go to Radin Mas Community Club at three o’clock.

   On the way there,I bought a burger. When I reached the basketball court,I was surprised to see Tom and Jack quarrelling. Tom and Jack are brothers. They love each other and they have hardly ever quarrelled.

   Later on,I learnt that they were quarrelling over who should start throwing the ball. I shouted to them to stop but they would not listen. They created such a racket that the people in a nearby coffee shop were looking at them. Soon Tom and Jack started to trade punches. I was shocked,as I had never even heard them quarrel before. Now they were fighting before my eyes!

   Luckily,two men came and stopped them till the boys calmed down. Then I suggested that we go to the coffee shop for a drink. At the coffee shop,I brought out my burger and it was good to see Tom and Jack sharing the burger and laughing once again.

   You probably talk to friends much more than you talk to your parents. That's natural. Even if you and your parents have a great relationship,you want to find your own path and make your own choices. Still,most of us want a parent's help,advice,and support at times. However talking to the adults in your life can seem difficult. But how to make it easier?

   First,talk about everyday stuff and do it every day. The more you do something,the easier it gets. Talking to the adults in your life about everyday stuff builds a bond that can smooth the way when you need to discuss something more serious.

   Find something unimportant to chat about each day. Talk about how your team did or share something one of your teachers said. Even small talk about what's for dinner can keep your relationship strong and comfortable.

   It's never too late to start. If you feel your relationship with your parents is nervous,try relaxing conversations. Talk about how well your little sister is doing in math. Chatting with parents every day keeps the relationship stronger.

People in hospital all liked me. Every morning I always thought that the dirty dishes would make people ill without my job to wash them. After breakfast was done,I started sweeping the floors of all patients , (people who are ill) rooms and cleaning restrooms. I was very tired,but I wanted to do the job well. People often say, "That young boy really does a good job. w That gave me a pride (自豪) .
