我立即出發(fā)，挨家挨戶地敲門。當(dāng)我介紹自己和我賣的賀卡時(shí)，我的心又興奮又緊張地狂跳。我盡了最大的努力來(lái)克服我的羞怯，自信地說(shuō)話，解釋卡片的質(zhì)量和美麗。一些鄰居微笑著禮貌地拒絕了，而另一些鄰居則表現(xiàn)出興趣，買了幾盒。每一筆交易都給我?guī)?lái)了成就感和希望。我決心堅(jiān)持下去，即使這意味著要面對(duì)拒絕和失望。Para2:

最后，我賺了20多美元，對(duì)于1954年一個(gè)9歲的孩子來(lái)說(shuō)，這是一大筆錢。我的父母對(duì)我的努力感到驚訝和自豪。我感到一種從未有過(guò)的自豪感和成就感。我不僅賺到了給家人買圣誕禮物所需的錢，而且還克服了害羞，學(xué)會(huì)了努力工作和堅(jiān)持不懈的價(jià)值。那個(gè)圣誕節(jié)，我把自己掙來(lái)的禮物送給了家人，它們是我送過(guò)的最特別的禮物。這段經(jīng)歷告訴我，只要有決心和努力，我就能實(shí)現(xiàn)任何我下定決心要做的事情。Samplewriting5:Wastingnotime,Isetoffandknockedondoorsinmyneighborhood.Initially.Iwastoonervoustoutterasingleword.ljustdroopedmyheadandstumbled,withmyeyesfixedontheground.Asaconsequence,Igotnothingowingtomytimidbehavior.NeverbeforeinmylifehadlfeltsofrustratedasIdidatthatmoment.However,thethoughtofbuyingChristmasgiftsforfamilyseemedtoinstillenergyandbraveryinto
