A lot of teens aren’t responsible(有责任感的),and that’s where I’m different.Not just about school but everyday things like being able to pay my own credit card(信用卡)bills on time.
The first time I got a cartoon book was on my third birthday.From then on, I fell in deep love with it.And can you guess how many cartoon books I’ve read?I don’t really know the exact number.But I have three full boxes of them under my bed.I also like drawing cartoons and wish to be an art teacher in a school.

I’m proud of doing things my own way.So whether somebody wants me to do something or whatever it is, I feel like they’re all other people’s thoughts, not really mine.But like others, I love reading, too.When I first took skiing lessons, I found it exciting.For ski racing, there’s no question I’m better shape than most guys(小伙子).I think it’s fun.I mean, it is a challenge(挑战).It’s where I picked up the idea of needing a challenge always in my life.In order to improve my skiing skills, I have read many books and magazines about it.No doubt it’s my dream to win gold medals in the Olympic Games.

A doctor friend, Mr Lieb, told me about a man who came to him with different kinds of signs:headaches, heart trouble and insomnia(失眠症). 5 some careful exams, Mr Lieb found nothing wrong with him and said, “If you don’t tell me what’s 6 you, I can’t help you”.
The man admitted he was cheating(骗取)his brother of his inheritance(遗产).Then and there the clever doctor 7 the man write to his brother and 8 his money.As soon as the letter was put into the post box, the man suddenly cried.“Thank you, ” he said to the doctor, “I think I’ve got well.”
