QUARTER TEST
What is Family?
Hi, my name is James, I have a question for you, what is family? There is a lot of different
answers for that, but I want to tell you my answer.
Well I have a beautiful family, I have two brothers and a sister, their names are Jonathan,
John and Jessica, I am the oldest of them, and of course there are my parents, Carla and
Michael. My dad is the best dad ever, he is always playing with us, helping us to become
better people and always trying to teach important lessons from his life and my mom is
so sweet, she is always making everything easier for us. Yes, my family is awesome.
Okay, I almost forgot to answer the question, “what is family?”. Well I think family is that
part in your life that makes you stronger, that makes you happy when everything is going
wrong, that part you remember when you don’t know what to do with your life and you
need an answer. If i can answer the question right, it would be that family is everything.
I am only 15 years old, but I know that every decision that I made in my life and that I will
make has in uence of my family.
My father is a Doctor, I see him helping a lot of people and because of his example I also
want to be able to help people, not as a doctor, but as a politician, I want to make a
difference just like my father.
I want to know your answer now, but always remember how your family is important.

James’s Time
There was once a boy named James. James was a very good soccer player at school, he
wanted to be a professional, but he didn’t like to practice very much, so when he was 18
years old, he had the chance to go to a try out for a very good soccer team, and as I said
he didn’t practice at all, so he failed.
James came back home that day and realised how much time he had lost, but he
decided to do something different for his life at the point, he practiced a lot, he did what
he should’ve done during his school time.
Then, after 2 years of hard work and a lot of practice, James tried again to join that
amazing soccer team he once wanted to play for, and he nally had success.
James learned how time is precious and how it can be wasted if we don’t do what we
need to do.
