Time is very important in our lives.It organizes our everyday moments.However,time never had any importance in my life until I received a watch from my father that organized my life and made me more responsible.
It came from Denmark to the U.A.E.jewelry shop in a gray box.It weighs 0.24 kilograms. It's round in the center with two silver bands that go around my wrist.And all of it is made of silver. This object tells me the importance of time in my life.
I received this gift on a gray-sky day.I had to go to the airport at 9:00 AM to pick up my uncle Aui and take him to my father's house.However,I was late because I was hanging out with my friends.Later on that day,around 11:00 AM,I remembered my uncle,but I was very late for him.

He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my life.

Fear

Fear is something that always remains in our heart. We can never eliminate fear from our life. Fear of failing in exams which can make a negative impact in someone's career,and fear of speaking in public where majority of human think that people will make fun of them.Fear of not being liked, fear of storms and floods,fear of being alone and many others are all very common examples of fear.
Fear can also affect our physical beings like pounding of the heart,rapid pulse rate,tense muscles,dryness of the throat,churning in the stomach,confusion,fainting,and the inability to concentrate.These things are also very common.Fear is only hidden somewhere inside our bodies, pushing us to work hard and moving us forward to overcome our weaknesses.
Fear is the way to our success.I had a very bad experience of fear in my childhood days.My father told me that if I got bad grades another time in my school exams,then he would kick me out of his home and would never allow me to come back again.This sentence of my father stuck in my mind because one of my friends in school at that time recently became homeless.He belonged to a poor family,and his father had lost a big amount of money in a small business near his home.So, the problems he was facing from homelessness made me work hard in my exams;otherwise,I might have been kicked out of home by my father.
Fear sometimes can be motivating,and help us to do those things which we think and believe that we can never do.One of the most common fear inducing activities,for example,is swimming. This is primarily caused by most of us not having a background in swimming and only taking it up because it is part of the sport. Additionally,most humans are uncomfortable in the water as a general rule because of the fear of drowning. This fear of drowning is innately strong,and similar common or strong fears tend not to exist when it comes to cycling or running because they are land based activities.

What does the author try to prove by using his childhood experience?
A:His father was very strict with him.
B:Fear can make us improve ourselves.
C:He was afraid of being homeless.
D:He was sympathetic with his homeless friend.

My father likes playing golf;he’s really enthusiastic（ ）it.
