One morning, Maria went to the beach early, but I stayed behind to finish a drawing of a seashell. After finishing the drawing, I walked to join Maria. She was a top gymnast (体操运动员).

The beauty of that sight froze me, and I decided immediately that I too would become a gymnast like her.I knew that I had never been very good at sports. However, when I told my parents I wanted to take a gymnastics class, they agreed with me in surprise. The next week, I went to a beginners class.If only my parents had talked me out of this misguided plan! Five minutes into the first class, it was clear that I didnt have the gift of a gymnast. But I kept at it.During this time, drawing and paintingwhich had been my two favoritesall but left my mind. It must have been hurting for my family as they watched my hopeless efforts. I blindly decided to be like Maria. I just would not give up.At the same time, on the advice of Ms. White, my art teacher, I hurriedly handed in my seashell drawing for an art contest in our town.

It was Ms. White. “Alice, you won the contest!” she said loudly.“Really?” was all I could reply.“Yes,” Ms. White said. “Theyre going to give you a prize. And thats not all. The winner is also accepted into Wildales Summer Fine Arts Institute.” I couldnt believe what I heard.
