三. 日记
Today is the first day of the University Entrance Examination. Let me recall one of my most impressive exams at the University. The course is circuit analysis. Actually, I didn't like it, but I tried my best to learn it. Before the midterm exam, I prepared for my physics competition, and therefore I went to bed a bit late. When I took part in the exam the next day, I felt bad. Then I did fail the exam. However, when I got my examination paper, my teacher had written that, you could do it better in the final exam, because you had studied hard. Take it easy! I was pretty touched at that time. And finally, I got the full score. Until now I'm all grateful for this.
