Polished transcript:

Male Female

I have many family photos, and sometimes my mom would put them in frames and hang them on the wall. They can tell the guests what the past was like in our family and can also remind us of the good memories we cherish. I want to talk about a photo taken on the Great Wall with my father, mother, and brother during last summer's holiday. Now I put it in my bedroom, and whenever I look at it, the good memory comes back to me. In the picture, you can see four people standing on the Great Wall and smiling happily. There are also a few people around us because there were so many people on the Great Wall that day. It's said that a person is not brave enough if he has never been to the Great Wall, so when my father traveled there, he decided to take a picture. We asked a traveler, and she helped us take these special photos. Because my parents are always busy with their work, we don't have many opportunities to travel together. The trip to Belgium was really special to me, so the picture became one of my treasures at home. Photos can help us keep beautiful memories. I'm really thankful that we can take photos whenever we want to travel.
