When I was a child, my mom always pushed me to study hard. She wished I could go to an ideal 51 for further education. I experienced stress for the first time. To a poor family, I deeply knew 52 was not easy for us, and everything my mom did to me was just to hope I could live a better life in the future. 53 the saying goes, “No pains, no gains.” So I did what my mom expected because I didn’t want to let her down. At last, I did measure up (达到标准）to my mom’s expectation and go to college 54 . Thanks to my mom’s push! Thanks to the stress! In this way, I don’t think stress is a bad thing.
