做父母的都望子成龙、望女成凤。我的爸爸妈妈也不例外，可他们的方法却很怪。
Parents look forward to their children and their daughters. My parents are no exception, but their methods are very strange.
有一次，我的语文期中考试考了70分。我拿着试卷，胆怯地回到家。我以为妈妈会使劲地打我一顿。没想到，妈妈看了试卷以后，只批评了我几句，就把试卷上的每一道错题认真地给我讲了一遍，才又回过头来教育我、鼓励我。她这样做，让我对下一次考试充满了信心。
Once, I got 70 points in my mid-term Chinese exam. I came home timidly with my papers. I thought mom would hit me hard. Unexpectedly, after reading the test paper, my mother criticized me only a few words, and told me every wrong question on the test paper carefully, and then came back to educate me and encourage me. By doing so, I am full of confidence in the next exam.
又是一次语文期中测试，我考了95分的高分。我以为妈妈会夸奖我，给我买好吃的、好玩的。没想到，妈妈盯了一下分数，对我说：“这次考得好，是老师对你们呕心沥血的结果。下一次要继续努力，不要骄傲。”尽管我没有得到什么奖励，但我觉得有道理。
Another mid-term Chinese test, I got a high score of 95. I thought my mother would praise me and buy me delicious and funny things. Unexpectedly, my mother stared at the score and said to me, "it's the result of the teacher's painstaking efforts to do well in the exam. Next time keep working hard, don't be proud. " Although I didn't get any rewards, I felt it made sense.
有一次，爸爸回来了，我给他讲我想买作文书。爸爸爽快地答应了，我们便到红叶书店去买书。一路上，火辣辣的太阳把我晒死了。我央求爸爸给我买一支雪糕。爸爸说：“吃冰的不好，回去喝开水。”我觉得爸爸有点小气。可到了书店后，小气的爸爸竟给我买了几百元的书！我才知道，爸爸不是小气，而是教育我，生活中该节约的钱必须节约！
Once, when my father came back, I told him that I wanted to buy composition books. Dad readily agreed, and we went to the red leaf bookstore to buy books. Along the way, the hot sun killed me. I begged my father to buy me an ice cream. Dad said, "it's not good to eat ice. Go back and drink boiled water." I think Dad is a little stingy. But when I got to the bookstore, my mean dad bought me a few hundred yuan book! I just know that dad is not mean, but educate me, the money that should be saved in life must be saved!
我有一个“怪”的妈妈，又有一个“小气”的爸爸。他们对我的爱，我受之不尽。我一定会考上大学，来报答我的爸爸和妈妈！
I have a strange mother and a mean father. I can't get enough of their love for me. I will definitely go to college to repay my father and mother!
