It had been a challenging but rewarding term, filled with hard work and a thirst for knowledge. As I handed in my final assignment and saw it was graded A, a sense of pride and satisfaction washed over me. Little did I know that my accomplishments had not gone unnoticed by my families, who had been closely observing my progress.
At the first day of summer vacation, my mother told me excitedly that we would pay a visit to Marco the next day to cheer for my progress in academic study. When I got the good news, I felt on top of the world and could not hold back my high spirits. As I lay in bed that night, a mix of anticipation and delight welled up in my heart, and I slid into a dream-filled sleep, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the coming adventure.
After we arrived in Marco, my parents said that we would first visit the Marco tower. Marco Tower, built in the late 19th century, is a historic landmark that showcases the rich architectural heritage of the city. It is also considered one of the top tourist attractions in the region. Upon hearing the inspiring news, I bounced up and down with joy. But then I felt a bit uneasy because of my fear of heights.
Inside the lift, my palms grew sweaty as the anxiety consumed me. I paced back and forth in the tower lift, unsure of whether I would have the courage. After the lift reached the specific floor, I gasped(倒吸一口气) in horror. The floor here was made of glass, so one could appreciate the height of the tower and take a real adventure. Seeing my family both take out their phones to shoot the grand views, I felt under pressure. Then my mother smiled at me and said delightedly, "Just take it easy and you can do it."
Paragraph 1:
I didn't know whether to stay or not.
The thought of exploring new places，and creating lasting memories with my family was undeniably inviting. However，it was obviously too challenging for me to step onto that glass. As I weighed the options in my mind，my mother's words echoed in my ears，reminding me of the courage and confidence I used to have. With a deep breath，I made up my mind that I would seize this opportunity and embrace the adventure that awaited me in Marco.
Paragraph 2:
I was totally struck by the height of the tower.
My eyes were immediately drawn to the magnificent structure that stood tall in the city centre—Marco Tower. Its charm was without equal，its soaring height dominating the skyline. I couldn't help feeling a mixture of awe and admiration. I reminded myself of the encouragement from my loved ones. As we left the tower，I expressed my gratitude to my mother for her consistent support. She taught me an important lesson that day—with a little encouragement，we can achieve extraordinary things.
