我和我的家人(Me and my family)
我和我的家人(Me and my family)
Hi, boys and girls, I am glad to be your English teacher this year. As you don't know much about me, let me first talk about myself here.
On the right you see an age-old picture of my family. Two of them have already passed away-my father and my elder (not the eldest) brother. Both of them died of cancer. My father suffered from liver cancer and was deceased in the year 1978 while my brother was killed by cancer which spread from the underside of his tongue to many other parts of his body. He left us on the 15th of April 1992 at the age of 37.
In the photo, the youngest one, sitting on the lap of the woman(my mother) was me. My younger sister was not yet born. My elder sister was seated next to my mother. She was a fat little girl at that time but now she is a middle-aged mother of two children. Her family and my mother are at present living in the U. S. A. My sister owns a Chinese-American restaurant which has been making good profits.
My eldest brother is a civil servant right now. He has been doing this job for more than 20 years. He likes this job, I guess. He has a son and a daughter. Both are working now. So, his burden as the breadwinner(one who supports the whole family) has not been so heavy recently. That's whyhe took a trip to Beijing during the last Lunar New Year Holiday.
As for me, I am 36, a school teacher and the father of a boy and a girl who are still too young to help me in anything.
Many changes have taken place over the last 35 years and things will never be the same again. No matter whether you like your family or not, think about it—some years later they won't be around you anymore. Try your best to love and forgive them. Nobody is perfect. They deserve your love and care because they are your family.
