文本素材&亮点词汇：

Describe a skill that you learned from older people

You should say

What the skill is

Who you learned it from

How you learned it

And how you feel about it

It is undeniable（不可否认的） that driving is one of the practical（实用的） skills. Everyone, in this day and age（在这个时代）, has to acquire it as it is evident（明显的） that driving to work everyday or travelling to far-flung destinations（遥远的目的地） on holiday breaks（假期休息）has become a trend in the past decades.  

I do remember, when I reached 18, I had decided to get a driving license. The problem was that taking driving lessons in a driving school was helpless(没有用地） at all. I hate to admit it, but I failed to pass the two practical examinations. I guess I wasn't gifted（有天赋的） on that. Butthanks to my grandpa who came to my rescue（把我解救出来）, I finally learned how to drive.

My grandpa was a professional driver. At first, he eagerly（热心地） taught me how to maneuver the wheels（操纵车轮）. When i was available, he would ask me to practice driving, using his 1970's BMW vintage car（老式汽车）which was old and classy（古老而优雅）. So obviously, my hands were shaking（发抖） and my knees（膝盖） were knocking against each other（互相撞击）. I was completely aware（意识到）that this vehicle was precious（珍贵的） to him and I had to give extra care for（给予额外的照顾） it.

Anyway, through my grandpa's guidance and trust in my ability, I am now able to drive  my own wheels（自己开车） anywhere I want, and for that, I would love to express my gratitude（表达我的谢意） to him who didn’t stop encouraging me to learn.
