Since last year, I have worked in a foreign company in my city. I always have lots of work to do. However, no matter how busy I am every day, I won’t forget one important thing. That is to meet my daughter Sally at her school gate on time. After getting home, we go to the park in our neighborhood. Sally plays there. I just wait for her. Every time I tell her that it’s time to go back home, Sally answers, “Five more minutes, Dad!” I always smile and say “OK” to her.

“What a patient(有耐心的)father you are! Your kid is so lucky to have a father like you!” Every time I hear such words, I feel that being a father makes me really proud.

In fact, I didn’t use to spend lots of time with Sally. I didn’t change until Tom’s son died in a traffic accident. Tom told me that he never spent much time with his son, not even five minutes a day. I can never forget Tom’s sadness(悲伤). At that time I decided not to make the same mistake as Tom had made. I think that when my daughter wants more time to play, I will spend more time enjoying being with her.

Life is uncertain(无常的;靠不住的). Nobody knows what will happen tomorrow. So, please give someone your love another five minutes every day.

Never try to work when you are very hungry. If you want to do your homework right after school, you may want to eat something before getting to work. Always do your homework before you get too tired. Don't wait until very late in the evening, or your homework will seem much harder than it really is.

If you have more than an hour's workyou should give yourself a break after an hour. On the other hand you should work at least half an hour a time without stopping.

Don't put it off(推迟)until the last minute. If you put off doing your homeworkyou will have it on your mindand you won't enjoy your free time so much. If you put it off until the end of the week or until night before a testyou will have too much catching up to do. A little each night, enough to keep up with(跟上)what is happening each day in schoolwill take the fear out of tests and keep you on top of it.

Do your homework at the same time every day. This will help you make it a habit. It will make part of your daily work           easyto do than beforeand it will make your free time happier as well.
