The following are expressions to ask for and provide information about a
person’s capability.
Text 1
My mother, Mrs. Erni, is very special to me. She teaches me many things
and never scolds me whenever I make a mistake. She teaches me by giving
examples from her actions, not instructions to do this and that. Through this
way, I get clear descriptions of how I should behave.
For your information, she also teaches me how to cook so that I can be
independent. I can cook my own meal whenever my mother isn’t at home.
Therefore, I can save money as I don’t need to buy food. My mother always
does everything on time and never delays finishing her jobs. That’s the way
she teaches me to be disciplined. I willingly copy her and get many benefits.
By being disciplined, I have lots of time to read books and learn many things
as I always finish my assignments as soon as possible. My mother is always
responsible for what she does. She asks for an apology at once she makes a
mistake. So do I. Because of this, everyone respects us. Besides, I always dare
to try new things. I really understand that success is only achieved through
hard work. I never feel reluctant to ask for apologies. As a result, I can do
many things and gain many experiences. For me, my mother is a really perfect
mother and good teacher. Do the exercises in your PR Bahasa Inggris
