I’d like to talk about my classmate, Boreinning, who is a very good student in my class. I think he is a very special person and definitely an excellent student. He got a very high entrance examination score when he got into my high school. Since we are good friends, he has given me a lot of help about my English, studying and other courses. Later, as I spent more time with him, I began to realize that his achievement was closely related to his hard work. Sometimes it’s common for students to skip some classes, but he would never do that. Even when he coughed a cold or a heartache, he would still try his best to go to classes. He would also take notes very carefully during the lessons. Sometimes I would borrow his notes because I felt that they were even clearer than the teachers. He gave a lot of good advice and encouragement. When I just started high school, my English was not very good because I from a little town and the English education there wasn’t good enough. I felt hard to understand the teacher’s English lessons. I was very frustrated when I failed my first English class for a test, which was required for all high school students. He encouraged me a lot and taught me his own studying methods and learning strategies. From then on, I would always go to the nearby park with him in the early morning to read English around and memorize vocabulary. Finally, my hard work got packed and passed the test with a good work. I think I should thank Ming for what he has done for me. I believe that when we are friends with some good students, we will definitely receive positive influence.
