A Good Role Model
一个好榜样
I'm the eldest child in my family, so I need to set a good example for my two little cousins. I learnt from my mother. She is my role model. Mum was also the eldest child in her family. She has two younger brothers. Mum was always calm, fair, and wise beyond her years. Even when Mum was only six years old, she used to share with her brothers. If there was one piece of cake, Mum would cut it into three pieces and let her brothers choose their pieces first. I do the same with my cousins.
我是家里面最大的孩子，所以我需要给我的两个堂弟堂妹做个好榜样。我从妈妈那里学到了该怎么做，她就是我的榜样。妈妈也是她家里面最大的孩子，她有两个弟弟。妈妈以前有着超越她年龄的冷静，公平和聪慧。当妈妈六岁的时候，常常和她的弟弟们一起吃东西。如果只有一块蛋糕，妈妈会把它分成三份，让她的弟弟们先选，我也用这样的方法给堂弟堂妹分东西。
Mum says that if I do the right things, my cousins will do the right things, too. I work hard at school, and I try to be helpful and kind all the time. As soon as I finish my homework, I always ask Grandma if I can help her with anything. Sometimes she wants me to help with the housework, but usually she just asks me to help my cousins with their homework.
妈妈说如果我做的是正确的事情，我的弟弟妹妹也会做正确的事情。我在学校努力学习，我尽力一直乐于助人、善待他人。我做完作业后总会问我奶奶需不需要帮忙。有时候她会让我帮忙做家务，但是通常情况下，她会让我辅导我弟弟妹妹做作业。
Sometimes, there's a lot of pressure to be a good role model, but it makes me stronger. I guess I'm lucky to have Mum as an example. I hope that I can do as well as Mum, and that when my cousins grow up, they respect me as much as Mum's brothers respect her.
有时候，想做好榜样需要承受很大的压力，但是这会让我变得更强大。我觉得有妈妈作为我的榜样我很幸运。我希望我能和妈妈做的一样好，当我的弟弟妹妹长大的时候，他们会像妈妈的弟弟们尊重妈妈那样尊重我。
