When I was 14, I wasnervous to talk to anyone. My classmates oftenme. I was sad but could do nothing. Laterhappened. It changed my life. It was an English speech(演讲) contest. My mother asked me to take part in it. What a(n)idea! It meant I had toin front of all the teachers and students of my school!
“Come on, boy. Believe in yourself. You are sure to.” Then, Mother and I talked about many different topics（题目）. At last Ithe topic “Believe in yourself”. I tried my best toall the speech and practiced it over 100 times.my mother’s great love, I did well in the contest. I could notmy ears when the news came that I had won the first place. I heard the cheers(喝彩声)the teachers and students. Thosewho once looked down on（瞧不起）me, now all said “Congratulations” to me. My mother hugged me and cried.
