There are lots of things I want to try. Some things are easy for me. Some things are harder. I might need to practice over and over.
我有好多好多事情想去尝试。对我来说呀,有些事情做起来很容易some things are easy ;有些事情做起来可能比较困难some things are harder ; 我可能需要一遍又一遍不停地练习“I might need to practice over and over ”.
I can try something new. I might like it. 我可以尝试一些没有做过的事情。 说不定,我会喜欢上它们。
It’s fun to try new things. 尝试新事物是很有趣的。
If something seems hard at first, I like to imagine myself doing it. 如果有些事一开始看起来似乎有点难,我会先思考应该怎样去做。
If something isn’t going well, I might try it a new way…如果有些事情进展得不顺利,我会换个方式试一试…
Or take a break and try again later…或者先休息一会儿,然后重新再来…
Or just try a little longer.或者,再多坚持一下。
It’s okay when I make mistakes. I learn by trying. 犯错误很正常,我会在不断尝试中一点一点学习。
It helps to remember things I already do well. 有很多我可以做得好的事情,记着这些对我很重要。
When something doesn’t work out, I may want to quit. 当有些事情我解决不了的时候,我可能会想要放弃。
I can take a big breath and stay calm. And I can remind myself to stick with it. 每当这个时候, 我就会来个深呼吸,让自己平静下来。然后提醒自己坚持下去。我会对自己说:“It’s okay. I can keep going. 没关系,我会继续坚持做下去。”
When I finish what I start, people see that they can depend on me. This helps us get along. 当我坚持把一件事情从头到尾做完的时候,大家都会看得到。这样他们就会认为我很可靠,也很有助于我们更好地相处。 我们会互相加油打气:“Slow and steady慢慢来,稳稳的。 Stick with it! 坚持住!”
I learn from people who don’t give up even when something is hard.我会像那些遇到困难坚决不放弃的人学习。They keep at it until they finish or until they can do it well. 他们坚持不懈直到把事情做完、做好。
Learning about other people who stick with something can give me the courage to keep trying. 每每得知别人的坚持不懈精神,都会给我不断尝试坚持下去的勇气。
I know people who encourage me. They are happy for me when I do something new. I might ask for a little help, and do the rest。 我认识很多会鼓励我的人。 每当我尝试一些新事物的时候,他们会为我感到高兴。 有时,我可能会需要一点儿帮助,然后把剩下的自己来完成。
Each day I can do my best. Something I do might even help someone else. 每天我都会非常努力,或许我做的一些事还能帮到别人。
When I work hard at something, I get better at it and it seems easier. 当我全力以赴做一件事情的时候,我可以做得越来越好,也越做越容易。
If I try something new and stick with it, I’ll find out what I like and what I can do. 如果我尝试一些新事物并坚持下去,我就会找到自己喜欢和擅长的事情。
