Thank you for teaching me to grow.

   Having skipped kindergarten and gone straight to first grade, my elementary school life began. Knowing nothing, I met you, my teacher, Ms. Zhang.

  I still remember when I first transferred to elementary school, you introduced me to the whole class. You told the students to have fun with me. You assigned me the front-row seat for people with disabilities. You started teaching me to count.

  In first grade, I was still in the front row, but not the seat for people with disabilities. You taught us to read new words, and you even had me point to them with a stick and teach them to read. Even though I misread many words, you smiled and said, "Not bad, keep improving."

  In second grade, I became very familiar with my classmates. In class, everyone listened attentively. Only my deskmate and I talked, and you didn't call on me. You just tapped me lightly with a book, which seemed hard, but only I knew the actual force.

  In third grade, you said that whoever wrote a good diary entry would wear a red scarf for a day and get a hug from you. I still remember the joy of that day when you said my diary was very good, when you put the red scarf on me, and when you hugged me.

  In fourth grade, I remember after class you took us to see the rainbow; it was the first rainbow I had ever seen. You looked up at the sky with us, showing a childlike smile, like a child with an innocent heart.

  Teacher, do you remember that day? You told us, "I'm not feeling well, I can't teach you anymore." "I'm sorry," you said, bowing deeply. Amidst our reluctant gazes, you strode away.

  Although you no longer teach us, you still visit us at school from time to time. I think you also miss us!

  Every Teacher's Day, so many classmates give you flowers and blessings.

  Whenever we write essays about the most memorable people or events, we always think of you.

  You are like the gentle spring rain, nourishing our young hearts.

  Looking back, I cherish my elementary school days, and even more so, I cherish my first teacher. You are like a shining piece of gold, teaching me the principles of being a good person.

There's a kind of meeting that feels like a long-awaited encounter.

     When     I first arrived in this city, the weather was a hazy, grayish white. It was already the height of summer, and there was a humid, stifling heat.     At the subway exit, I saw Mo Xiaobei struggling to find me in the crowd. She took my suitcase, then pretended to be incredibly strong, smiling happily at me and revealing her cute little tiger teeth. I followed Mo Xiaobei through several subway stops until we finally arrived at her rented room. The moment I opened the door, it felt like I had entered a disaster zone. Just as I had imagined, her room was a mess. Several pairs of shoes were scattered haphazardly on the floor, and bottles and jars were strewn about on the table, along with leftover food that had been moldy for days. I turned to look at Mo Xiaobei, who scratched her head sheepishly. "I haven't cleaned the house these past few days. Since you're here, could you help me tidy up?" I knew she was always like this, so I shook my head h...

Five-degree slanted characters (Part 2)

    Chi Zhoumu played three games of League of Legends in a row. Whenever he encountered a problem he couldn't figure out, he had to shift his focus to prevent himself from being trapped by his chaotic thoughts. After the three games, Chi Zhoumu stared at the computer for a long time, lost in thought. "No, I have to go out for a walk and relax," Chi Zhoumu thought to himself.      When Chi Zhoumu went out, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. The streetlights emitted a quiet, dim yellow light, and only a few people were running on the playground. The moonlight was faint, casting overlapping shadows, and the road was deserted. He went to the pavilion, sat down on a bench, and lazily admired the reflection of the library lights on the lake. Two or three couples were scattered on the small island in the lake. "It's hard to find such peace and harmony in the bustling city," he thought.      After sitting for about twenty minutes, just as he was ...

Looking up at the starry sky

     The night is deep, and I can't fall asleep alone. I open the window and see the twinkling stars, but are you the brightest one?     I remember the first time I saw you was in my final year of junior high. I stood nervously behind you, watching my classmates register one by one, and my name was left unassigned. Yes. I was timid and cowardly, and because I didn't have the money for tuition, I didn't dare to speak to you. I just stood there, standing there.     Later, you noticed me, smiled slightly, and asked, "Have you registered?" I shook my head. You asked again, "Are you having trouble?" I nodded. "Come with me!" When I took out my blankets from a corner of the school, I saw tears in your eyes; and I couldn't hold back anymore and burst into tears. You took the blankets, took my hand, and walked towards the dormitory building.     I've always thought of myself as a stubborn child, someone no one could melt the thick ice in my hea...
