We each have a memory. That's why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart. Jack was such a middle school student, but he didn't like to memorize things, especially English words. Once the students in Jack's class were going to have an English test. They had to write "True nor "False" on the test paper. When all the other students were reviewing their lessons the night before the test, Jack was watching TV and playing computer games. "How can you make it?" When his classmates asked him in surprise, he didn't seem worried at all. "It will be easy," he said. UI have come up with an idea to pass the test. I' 11 take a coin with me. I' m sure I'll pass the test. "
The next day Jack came into the classroom with a coin. He sat down and began to toss the coin. When the coin came down on his hand with a certain side up, he wrote "False". In this way, he spent only half an hour finishing his test paper. He left the classroom one hour earlier than the others happily. The next morning, he saw the English teacher in the classroom. u Good morning, sir " he said. "Did I pass the test?" The teacher looked at him and smiled. "Ah, it, s you, Jack, just a minute. " Then he put his hand into his pocket and took a coin. He threw it into the air, caught it in his hand and looked at it. "I'm very sorry, Jack" he said, "You failed. " All the students laughed and Jack' s face turned red. There is no doubt that one can make great progress by working hard. Though a person has talent, if he doesn't have a good attitude, he won't be accented by life. Remember "No pains, no gains."
