Thank you for your valuable comments. I have tried to revise my essay. Here's the essay.

"Can you teach me the steps for stock taking?" I asked my junior. "Of course. Let's have a look at the storage before we start the stock take." replied my junior. I was working part time in my school's bookstore, I had many to learn from my junior who has been helping out there for some time. Most of them were retained student, but there were the one who taught me a lot.

I don't judge people by their appearance, economic status or education background. I always try to get to know all the people I have met in my life as everyone has good values that I need to learn. I will try to interact with all my classmates in my primary and secondary school. Humility helps me to blend into the community easily. I will not look down on people who do not study well as talents cannot be determined by examinations. Those whose academic results are mediocre may be an expert in other fields like arts or sports. It is impossible for me to learn all the knowledge but I can learn as much as I can if I humble myself to learn from others.

For example, I was the vice-president of Chinese Orchestra Society in my secondary school. I would accept the advice and suggestions given by my members and advisors. Besides, I would swallow my pride and dare to admit my wrongdoings. Therefore, I got along well with the committee members and always completed our task in time.

Staying humble helps me to treat others well. People will easily forgive your shortcomings if you forgive theirs and treat them well. I will always be humble in order to improve myself and become better.
