What did I learn from this experience? Now I know that before I start something, I should know how to finish it.

Dad bought a set of tools to make a racing car for me. I just couldn't wait, and one day, while Dad was at work, I decided to have my car going. I looked at the drawings, and I said to myself, "Dude, you can do this." I got out Dad's toolbox, and I started building. Part A fit into Part B. Part C was a little harder to connect to Part D. It was easy to fix Part E. By the time I got to Part G, I'd made a real mess (混乱) of things. I really regret having done such a silly thing.

A few years ago, when my family moved to this city, I became interested in soap-box race. That's when I discovered that "it is far easier to start something than it is to finish it."
