Polished transcript:

Male Female

For me, one of the most important items that my family has kept for a long time is a photograph. If I remember correctly, it was taken more than 30 years ago. At that time, the reason they decided to take the photo was because of my grandfather. His health was very weak due to his cancer. Before he passed away, my mother decided to take a photo with my grandparents in order to keep memories. After that, my mother put that photograph into a box to store memories. In the picture, I see my grandparents' smiles, which were very shy and beautiful. Beside them are my parents, who are standing next to them with their big smiles too. Whenever we look at this picture, it reminds me of our grandparents and the hard lives they had in the past. Whenever I feel closer to them, even though they are no longer with us, it teaches me to appreciate my family and respect the previous generation.
