Hello! I’m Peter. My favourite subject at school is maths. It is very interesting and I always get good marks in the exams. For me, numbers and figures (图形) are so easy. I am lucky to have a clear-thinking brain.

The wonderful thing about maths is that there is nothing else to remember besides some formulae (公式). Other subjects like history and geography need a lot of memory work. For me, they are much harder. Maths is simple to me, but some of my friends hate it. They get stuck with (被……困住) simple problems and often give up. So I help them out when I can. My friends also help me with my history and geography.

Now, I come to realize that people are different in their abilities (能力). Some of us are lucky to be good at some things. Others may do well in other ones.
