My School
In the early part of our lives, we’re gonna have to go through a number of schools to complete our education. Of all the schools that I’ve been at, my college, Shenyang University played a most important part in making me who I am today. First things first, it’s a huge comprehensive university with more than 26,000 enrolled students. And you can find all majors here, environmental engineering, information technology, English, you name it. The campus is quite big, with more than 500 square kilometers. And it almost feels like a small city with all the infrastructure a person may need for daily life. Accommodation, food court, supermarket, sports ground… The teachers that I had were all responsible for their students and conscientious about their job. There are many foreign teachers here who are willing to help us in and out of class. No doubt, my English improved because of them. My university is my second home. And the four years I studied in it were also the time during which I grew up to be a mature, and independent-thinking person. I found out who I was, who I am and who I want to be in my university. In this sense, the teachers I met, the information I was given to, and the environment I was living in at my university really influenced mylife greatly.

An Important Holiday
The biggest festival of all in my country is Chinese New Year, the Spring Festival. We Chinese have celebrated it for thousands of years already. It comes between January and February every year, but the exact date is different year to year since we use lunar calendar. Anyway, when it finally arrives, people all over the country take 7 days off. On the eve of the Spring festival, a big family reunion is held at the dinner table. We talk, we propose toast to each other, and we bond with members of our family. I don’t know when it started, but it seems to many Chinese that watching Spring Festival Variety Show on China Central Television has become an ceremonial thing to do every year at Spring Festival.
8 R4 t$ p. E6 sThe show starts at 8 sharp and last past midnight. And as the midnight count-down is completed, we exchange new year greetings and young kids receive new year allowance. Many people will go outside and fire up firecrackers and fireworks. The whole sky is lighted up with magnificent colors. For the midnight dinner, we eat dumplings and fish. And this is important, fish is a dish we must have, because in Chinese “fish” has the same sound as something left, something more, something extra. So by eating fish, we’re hoping that every year, we’ll make our life better. The reason I like it so much is because,in a way, Spring Festival provides an opportunity for us Chinese to remember our cultural origin, a chance to relax and restore our inner balance between work and leisure, and a great time of fun at the end and beginning of a year.

An Ideal Job
% s( ?% U4 T1 i/ j: g" y% SIf I could get any job in the world, I would probably want to become a really good C.E.O. like Steve Jobs of Apple Computer, you know, heading a fortune 500 company. But I’m not going to burn myself out like many big business leaders and I’m not going to become a workaholic. Enjoying what you do is as important as going to work. Don’t you think? I think in order for a job to fit this ideal, it’s really important to be with the right group of people. You know, if you have someone on your team that gives you trouble all the time, you’ll have to deal with lots of unnecessary pressure. And when I find the right team, I’ll provide my employees comfortable working conditions, proper Medicare policy and paid vacation. This may seem quite far away given that I’m still a young man struggling to find my meaning in life. But I’m a patient, creative and intense person.

City
Talking about my favorite city, undoubtedly, it’s Paris. Though I don’t speak French that much, but I can’t help loving the city. The city of Paris has a very artistic, historical and romantic feel to it. And people in Paris are blessed with lots of privileges that no where else in the world can you find. When I go to Paris one day, I’ll definitely take a picture with the famous Eiffel Tower, especially when it’s dark, and all the lights on the tower are lit. I’m surely going to take a walk on Champs Elysee. I want to feel the gentle wind on my face and the crisp autumn leaves under my feet. My girlfriend/wife/sister/I am crazy about shopping, and Paris is one big shopping paradise, so I will visit the Louis Vuitton Store, the Diesel Jeans Boutique, and many more. Hopefully, I’ll have enough money for the returning flight. Besides these things, if I can catch a fashion show when I’m there,

It’ll take me forever to talk about the reasons for loving the city. One thing is for sure--when I finally get on that plane to Paris, it’ll be a dream-come-true.

Of all the people alive today, Bill Gates is my role model. I admire him the most not because he’s the richest person on the planet, but because who he is and what he has done. Bill Gates is one of those geniuses that bring possibilities and conveniences into people’s lives. President and former C.E.O of the world’s largest software company, Microsoft, Bill Gates literally changed everyone’s lives in almost every aspect. He and his team are still dedicated to making the computer operating system more powerful, and easier to use. We can not measure his contribution to modern human society. But, without him, our life today would be something quite different, I can tell you that much. He’s a technology whiz, a successful businessman, and Forbes richest person of the world. It's amazing that he’s still greatly responsible for the society. The foundations and many other charitable associations that he and his wife started are helping thousands and thousands of people to shake off poverty, receive education, and become healthier. He’s a dynamo of ideas and is always thinking ahead of other people. His vision for what future computer systems should be like dazzles us. I really like the latest version of Windows system, windows vista. It looks better, more user-friendly and, … colorful, (smile). I like my computer better because of this new system. So business success, a good heart and great creativity, those are reasons why I admire him the most. One day, if I can open a company, I’ll name it Macrosoft! (giggle) Just Kidding!

It’s fairly simple. The first thing you do is to get everything ready, you know,4 t0 N- h: f; P" c% A
coffee ground, cream and sugar, hot pure water and so on. The next thing you do is to pour the hot water into the coffee ground. You’ve got to make sure that it’s really hot, around 97 degrees. And wait for 4 minutes. Then, filter the coffee. If you want to take sweet and low in our coffee, you can add some cream and cube sugar into your coffee. Stir the coffee to help it mix. Now look at this mysterious black drink! Smell it, think about the smell and enjoy! It's good to enjoy it by yourself, it’s even better if you’re enjoying it with your friends or family. That way you can share your understanding of the coffee with others. And this makes the coffee drinking experience special. I know drinking too much coffee can be harmful to one’s health. But some study show coffee drinkers have a smaller probability of liver diseases. See, it’s not all bad! My teacher once said: “Life is like a cup of coffee. It takes the beans of diligence, the foams of passion and the cinnamon of dreams to smell fragrant.”So, make a cup of coffee and have a great life!
事件—梦想
/ _) F, ~7 T6 H' g2 w Dream
This is a very intriguing question. Dream is an excellent thing. It motivates you and keeps you going; it gives you courage and strength. And I believe whatever dream you have, one day it will come true. I saw a movie recently; the name is The American Dreamz. In that movie, everyone wants to become a hit singer through a talent show. Not everyone will win the ultimate title, but the struggle, the hard-work make the dream exciting. I was inspired by that movie, because I got power from it. Right now, in China, there are also many talent shows like that. And many young people have already made their dreams come true. It’s exciting to see their lives now. And I can’t help wanting that for myself too. My dreams are many. I want to own a worldwide company, and be a really good CEO, just like Steve Jobs of Apple Computer. And I love cars, I love driving. I hope one day, I can own my sports car, a Lamborghini, maybe. Yeah! That’s cool, isn’t it? I realize that in order to fulfill my dreams, I will have to go through a difficult process. But hey, I’m young. I have strong determination and perseverance.

An Important Thing in Life / An Important Person around me:
2 P+ h' y% Z1 C: |Of all the things that happened to me,one thing last year was of the most significance. My grandma passed away last year. She was 85. In my life, she played an irreplaceable role. When I was young, my parents were extremely busy. It was my grandma that took care of me all the time. She attended to all the details in my life. It wasn’t easy looking after me, I’ll tell you that. When I was 8 months old, an unfortunate accident happened to me. I was burnt by hot milk. Can you imagine? My grandma took good care of me. I got better so fast because of her care. I owe so much to her. From the time I was born until I became a grown-up, she had always been by my side, loving and caring. Her passing away made me felt great emptiness and loss. I’m still adjusting to life without her. I’m learning to be strong and learning to take care of myself. In a way, her passing away changed me, helped me to become more mature and responsible. Up until now, that has been the most important thing that happened in my life. I absolutely can’t forget it, NOT for ever.

I want to be able to enjoy some peace and quiet when I go home. So my ideal home should be in the country. You know, lots of trees, maybe a river, fresh air, clean water, fewer people… Make no mistake about it, I’m not going to live a farmer’s life. I want my interior décor to be posh, trend-setting, and full of technology. I want to have a fully-equipped study, desktop computer, laptop computer, hi-fi system, and many more appliances. I want a big living room with windows all the way from the ceiling to the floor, all around. So there will be a lot of sunshine and beautiful things to look at. I need a big kitchen and a large bathroom. My master bedroom should be spacious, so it will reduce the pressure of mine. I move a lot in my sleep so I want a king-sized bed. I want my interior to be colorful.

Computers are indispensable in everyone’s life. And there’s no need to stress on the significance of computer skills. Computers make things easy and brings about increasing new possibilities into our lives. Just look at what computers are capable of doing these days. I mean, Wow! Talking about state-of-the-art!

People can easily talk to each other through on-line chatting programs, no matter where they are. With a webcam you can see each other’s faces. And the good news is, it’s almost free. Plus, internet-shopping is revolutionizing all people’s lives. On-line shopping websites like E-bay and Amazon are getting popular among more and more people. I got my first laptop back in high school as a prize for my good grades. It was a gray DELL. I used it to collect information about sports and entertainment, beautiful pictures and movie clips. I read English news on line, listen to English music and watch English movies both on and off line. So, if there’s one thing I love the most, and one thing that benefits my study and life the most, it’s absolutely my computer.
