As the saying goes, "parents are the best teachers for children." However, I became a teacher for my mother and influenced the whole family with practical actions. In my mother's words, by changing my mother, I changed not only my mother, but also the people around her, including her colleagues.

It goes back to the winter of the year before last, when it was already very cold. It's very cold in winter in Beijing, so my family drove out to see a movie. Because Olympic officials come to visit Beijing, there are all kinds of plastic flowers everywhere in Beijing, which makes people feel a little warm in winter. We eat snacks and listen to music in the car, which is very comfortable. When I arrived in Dongzhimen, my mother threw the garbage bag filled with garbage outside along the window. It was too late for me to stop it. I asked my father to drive the car back to pick up garbage, and my mother said that the car could not be returned. Besides, there are so many cars on the road. What if I go back and collapse? Mom even said it would be nice to change it next time. But I was determined not to do it, and finally my dad brought the car back. Mother found the rubbish she had thrown away. Although it took a lot of time, the whole family thought I was right. On the way home, many garbage bags of different colors were hung on the trees on both sides of the airport expressway, and the whole family deeply reflected.

Since then, our whole family has become ambassadors of "stressing civilization and protecting the environment" with practical actions. Last week, my family climbed Xiangshan, enjoyed the red leaves and took a lot of food to have a picnic. After the picnic, everyone will collect the garbage separately, carry it down the mountain and throw it where there are trash cans. Such a thing will be done consciously in our family without my supervision. My mother touched me with practical actions. She often picks up the rubbish on the ground in public places and throws it into the trash can.

To be civilized and polite, everyone needs to start from me and start from small things. As small masters of the country, we have the obligation to help those who have not received a good education to learn and practice civilization. Because we are rich in material life today, we need to build a high level of spiritual civilization. Only in this way can our country become a strong and highly civilized country, and civilization can be admired by more people.

Once, I saw on TV that Germany, an ancient European civilization, called on the people of the whole country to be civilized and polite, and to find back the ancient etiquette of the Germanic nation. At the same time, for example, an old woman passed by this road. Although she was the only one on the road, she waited for the red light to turn green. The old woman replied, "I'm afraid the children upstairs will think they can pass when they see the red light." I sent this story to all my grandfathers, grandmothers, fathers and mothers. How important your words and deeds are to us. When you have uncivilized behavior, think about your children! Thought we were an ancient civilization!

I want to use this little experience to tell my classmates that our words and deeds can also influence and change adults! Try it if you don't believe me! Let's all be polite middle school students! In this way, our life can be better and our country can be stronger.
