[范文必背]
Fishing is my favorite, for it is both fun and instructive, which has helped me improve my power of controlling myself.
①Three years ago when my study was not satisfactory and my challenge was my lacking enough patience and persistence my father taught me how to fish to help me overcome these. ②Told that fishing was full of fun, I followed him without hesitation. It’s strange that fishing isn’t as easy to learn as it seems. To grasp the skill, I tried hard and eventually became a skilled fisher. Meanwhile, I can focus on my study, which has been greatly improved since then.
Now I share my experience with those with the same trouble, encouraging them to study with their full devotion and attention.
