Most people have heard of Shakespeare and probably know something of the plays that he wrote. However,not everybody knows much about the life of this remarkable man,except perhaps that he was born in the market town of Stratford upon Avon and that he married a woman called Anne Hathaway. We know nothing of his school life. We do not know,for example,how long it lasted,but we presume that he attended the local grammar school,where the principal subject taught was Latin.
Nothing certain is known for what he did between the time he left school and his departure for London. According to a local legend,he was beaten and even put in prison for stealing rabbits and deer from the estate of a neighboring landowner,Sir Thomas Lucy. It is said that because of this he was forced to run away from his native place. A different legend says that he was apprenticed to a Stratford butcher,but did not like the life and for this reason decided to leave Stratford.
Whatever caused him to leave the town of his birth,the world can be grateful that he did so. What is certain is that he set his foot on the road to fame when he arrived in London. It is said that at first he had no money or friends there,but that he earned a little by taking care of the horses of the gentlemen who attended the plays at the theatre. In_time , as he became a familiar figure to the actors in the theatre,they stopped and spoke to him. They found his conversation so brilliant that finally he was invited to join their company.

Tom is one of my best friends at high school. We spent a lot of time together every day. We share a lot common. For example, we both work hardly and love sports. Although I am not so smart as her, we both do very well at school. Tom's favorite subjects is history and Chinese, and he also speaks excellent English. I am used to be bad at English. Thank to his help, I have made a great progress in it. Yesterday, our English teacher said she decided to hold an English speech contest next week. I think a good chance to improve my English. Both Tom and I are looking forward to show our potential in the speech contest!
