      When I was 14, I was too nervous to talk to anyone. My classmates often laughed at me. I was sad,
but I could do nothing. Later, something happened. It changed my life. It was an English speech contest.
My mother asked me to take part in it. What a terrible idea! It meant that I had to speak before all the
teachers and students of my school.
      "Come on, boy, believe in yourself. You are sure to win." Then my mother and I talked about many
different topics. At last, I chose the subject "Believe in yourself". I tried my best to remember the whole
speech and practiced it over 100 times. With my mother's great love, I did well in the contest. I could hardly
believe my eyes when the news came that I had won the first place. I heard the cheers from the teachers
and students. Those classmates who looked down on me, now said "Congratulations!" to me. My mother
hugged me and cried excitedly.
