A
Many years ago mathematics was my enemy. I was afraid of it and I hated it so much that you could not imagine.
Then came a new teacher to our village. On the first day, he entered the classroom with huge steps, reached the blackboard in a few seconds, and wrote his name on the blackboard. Some letters were in higher places and some were in lower places; some were as big as the board itself and some were so small that we had to open our eyes a lot to see them; some were wide enough, but on the other hand some were too thin.
As he turned around, the class suddenly became still and silent, trying to make_out what it was. As we read his name, we were all smiling, no laughing out loud. Soon we realized that he had a special and lasting sense of humor and we began to learn mathematics in a relaxed and happy mood (心情)．
As for my mathematics study, the barriers (障碍) began to turn into pieces, and the fear began to disappear slowly. What was dark and colorless suddenly became exciting, challenging, interesting and above all simply fun. There was some humor added to every sum (算术) and there was fun in every problem.
Thanks to this special teacher, math became the most enjoyable subject to me.
