初三英语作文：体验生活　　To Experience the Life 　　Saturday Nov.
15, 2003 Cloudy 　　My teacher gave me an assignment experience life last week.
I had been thinking how to finish it because I had never done any thing by myself before.
　　Mother was out today.
It was a good chance to complete the assignment.
Seeing the barrel was empty, I decided to fetch water from the well.
　　I took the empty barrel and went towards the well outside the yard.
It snowed yesterday, so the alley was very slippery.
A layer of thickice was frozen on the platform of the well.
I was frightened by the sight, but I gathered my courage to walk towards it.
　　The alley was so slippery that I walked with difficultly.
Suddenly, I slipped and fell down, water in the barrel totally poured down on the ground.
I stepped on the platform carefully.
After standing steadily and squatting down slowly, I hooked the barrel at the end of the rope and put the rope down slowly.
I made an effort to drag the barrel up after it was filled with water.
I was very careful because it was easy to slip and fall.
Then, I carried the barrel of water and returned to my house.
My figners were frozen stiff.
I realized my effort was in vain.
I hated myself.
　　I failed to finish the assignment but I did experience life through a trifle which seemed easy but difficult to do well.
Such was my first experience of life.
