The first lady of America Michelle Obama visited China not long ago. During her trip, she went to Chengdu No.7 High School. She gave the students a wonderful speech(演講) to tell them about her own experience. She said she was born in a common(普通的) family. There were four people in her family and they lived in a small house. Her father was a worker and didn’t make much money, but the little home was filled with love. They took care of each other and liked to share their stories during dinner time. Although her parents were only at high school education level, they still sent both Michelle and her brother to universities. Life at that time was not easy for them, especially for her father because he was ill. No matter how tired he was or how much pain he got, Michelle’s father hardly ever missed a day of work in order to give a better life to his two children. Every day, like so many of us, Michelle felt the weight of her parents’ hope on her shoulders. She wanted to make them proud, but it wasn’t easy. Whenever she got tired, she would just think about how hard her parents were working for her. And she always remembered what her mother said, “A good education is something that no one can take away from you.”
