When I meet difficulties, I can read a story about someone who gets over a similar difficulty. When I’m s ad, I can read a funny story that makes me laugh. Reading can give me hope and make me strong.The main reason I enjoy reading is that I can travel in time and space. I can travel to the past and watch Leonardo da Vinci paint the Mona Lisa.

I lived in a small village before I was ten. Then my father found a job in a city near the country, so all my family moved to the city. Today I still clearly remember the time when I lived in that village.My mother worked in a tea-making factory. It was very small, and only had thirty workers. The factory building was divided into two parts. The first part was larger, with lots of machines. There were about ten rooms in the second part. Some were used as offices; the others were used as bedrooms for workers.We lived in one of those rooms. Although it was very small, it was comfortable. We loved each other and lived happily. The room was always full of laughter.There was a hill full of bamboos near the factory. This kind of plant was green and straight. Also, it looked neat, especially after rain.In front of our room was a garden. My mother grew plenty of vegetables and fruits there, such as cabbages, carrots, potatoes, watermelons and tomatoes. So we didn’t need to buy vegetables from the market.It is a long time since I left the village. But that was really the most pleasant time in my life.16.
