Mention about the topic, Alipay is the app that I love to use. You know, it has been an essential part of our daily life. For me, I have to use it almost every day. A couple of years ago, when I was in college, I got to know it. Quite impressive you know. At the beginning, I didn't trust its functions at all. I have got no idea what it was. After several months, more and more people started to use it. I become a member of them as well. You know, my friends, classmates, parents and grandparents. All of them are big fan. Probably, I think I don't have to take my credit cards or cash with me all the time, all what I need to do is downloading this app, put the phone in my pocket. Then everything would be well settled. After using this special app, I find my life much easier and much safer, cuz I don't have to worry too much about my wallet. So, this is the app that I use more often in my life. That is it.

Mention about the topic, a goal that I set and worked hard comes to my mind. It is all about a brand new Apple product, iPhone x. As is known to all, its price seems unreasonable, quite expensive to me, since all of financial support was originally from my parents. At that time, I made up my mind to do 2-3 part-time jobs on summer vacation, all what I want has got to do something with the iPhone x. I wasn't planning to get money from them any more. I want to be independent economically. Gotta be honest, I worked in a coffee shop each day as a salesperson, from 9am to 12pm, then went to a sport center and started another work as a waiter. This lasted for another 4 hours in general. The point was that I kept on doing this throughout my entire vacation. I even didn't take the day off. You know what, I successfully made my dream come true after so many hard days of work. I was quite proud of myself, I made it. That is it.

The foreign country that I am willing to know more about is Thailand I can say. You know, it is getting close to my country and apparently, it seems quite easy to travel to that special place. As far as I know, it is famous for its fruits, tourism and the weather. You couldn't find winter there, summer time is the only season it has. Actually, many friends of mine have been there before, but I haven't. I would like to give it a try someday in the near future. You know, it is a totally different place from my country, I am big fan of local food, specifically the fruit is my favorite, like durian for example. Besides, the language is my advantage, I can speak fluent English and Chinese, millions of ordinary people in Thailand would use these languages as well. The local people are really friendly by the way. So, I think it is a country where is full of legend and more importantly, I am hoping to spend time there as well. That is it.

Mention about the topic, a time that I was late for an important examination comes to my mind. Last year, I worked hard on a very important exam and it has got to do something with my future job. I spent 4 to 5 hours each day on it. When the day came, I was late because I couldn't get up early on that morning, or I wasn't on time and I did this quite often. It was a bad habit of mine. I know it. I remembered that was a winter morning when I wasn't allowed to take part in the exam, I was totally shocked and felt… it was hard to say, you know. I was walking around the campus, thinking about what I have done. It was the first time that I realised the importance of procrastination. I hated it. Till now, through the bad experience that I have suffered, I have made the change. I am a morning person I can say. That is it.

Cycling is the new skill that I leaned recently and certainly I believe it quite important in my life. It was quite hard to study well at the beginning, since I was not good at the sort of activity. How to find the balance on the bike is really challenging to me. I spent like 2-3 hours on the road on the weekend, till now, it has been a long time, a couple of weeks, I successfully had a perfect experience on it. I made it. You know, my friends helped me a lot during that past weeks. Now, I can say that I could ride the bike to any kinds of places that I am willing to. More importantly, cycling is a proper way to lose weight for me. By the way, I wouldn't be getting stuck in the traffic any more. I love cycling now. That is it.

Well actually, it is not one person only who made lots of noise, but a bunch of old ladies in my community. They have been dancing in our neighborhood for years. It is great time for those seniors who just have plenty of freedom, but a disaster for me. As is known to all, the dance usually takes place right in central area of my community, around 7 to 9 p.m. I hate it so much. You know, in the meantime, all kinds of old fashioned music are required, what I am trying to say is that it could be included in the public noise. Apparently, not a lot of people like listening to that. All of us could hear that clearly by the way. The only solution for me is putting on my earphone or closing the window. But I am still suffering then. Gotta be honest, I have no idea. I was trying to persuade them to make the change. Now, I am used to it. So, that is it.

The wonderful house that I am willing to live in should be quite large. I don't like the smaller one. Since I am hoping to live with my parents and grandparents if possible. You know, I am the kind of person who loves the peaceful life, not very noisy or crowded by the way. I would have the opportunity to have breakfast, dinner with my dearest ones at home. So, living on the suburb could be my favorite. Get words around, the price seems more reasonable if I buy a house in such place. In the city center, a big house, it is a dream to me, it is not that affordable to me. Gotta be honest, a big yard or garden is very important, three to four bedrooms, one gust room could be required. Meanwhile, a study room or such. You know, those parts are my favorite. You know, I usually have visitors, my classmates, good friends, so, a big house is right for me. That is it.

The one who has showed me something one or two on general knowledge of this world definitely is my father. He who used to be very successful in business has given me loads of advice on future career and personal life. My dad who looks rather tall and strong is a nice man. He often puts a smile of joy on his face almost everyday. No matter what happens, he is always positive and finds a proper way to work it out. When I was young, he was quite busy with his business and companies, I actually didn't have many choices to catch him. Till now, we live in the same house, he has plenty of freedom to tell me something. Gotta be honest, I thought that what he told me was too useless, I didn't care about it. Since I grew up, I found that was a big fortune to me. I started to realise his words. So, I can say that my father has given me too much on life and regular work. By the way, at the moment, he is the one that I look up to. That is it.

The day that made me feel very happy, I would say it should be my birthday. Last week, I just had my 19th birthday on 11th of April. On that special day, I was studying in the school library from morning to the afternoon. In the evening, I had a quite exciting and enjoyable moment with my close friends. To be exact, three of them. We certainly went out for dinner in a small restaurant, where was quite crowded and full of different people. It was a local restaurant, the cook was my favorite. Apparently, my friends like that as well. Gotta be honest, after a hard day of work and study, we didn't feel tired at all on that day, interestingly, we talked a lot. Ranging from childhood memories to university life, from part time jobs to personal affairs. The point was that I didn't have to think too much when I was talking to them. Since they were my friends indeed. Above all, we arrived at that place around 7pm and went back home in 5 hours. See, I told you. That was impressive to me. That is it.

Actually, a couple of years ago I got a piece of good news through a text message. It was all about my offer of an ideal college. By the way, the piece of good news was originally from my school teacher Mr. Wong, who did the arrangement in my class. To be precise, I was told that the offer would come to my in 3 days, all what I had to do was like staying at home then just waiting for it. Gotta be frank, very very excited and a bit nervous as well. I remembered that was a sunny afternoon on Friday, I was playing some sorts of computer games with my best friends in my house, after receiving this sort of text message, I immediately called my mom then let my friends know it as well. I thought that could be my happiest moment throughout my lifetime. I wish this smile of joy could be given to all of my friends and relatives. So, this is all about it. That is it.

Mention about the topic, someone who I think can do well in his job is my university professor Jason. He who teaches us French is pretty good at his job. You know, I got to know this special person a couple of years ago when I was a freshman on campus, he looks rather tall, short hair, which made him feel quite confident. He was not the type of teacher who liked to talk a lot, but very patient after the class. You know, we had his Emial, when we met some problems of study or couldn't understand something of the class, we would ask for help through the Email. The point was that I could get the reply quite soon every single time, maybe in 2 hours, sometimes at midnight, occasionally early in the morning. He was very careful with his work, I mean he wouldn't make any mistakes in the class or after the curriculums. I didn't know why he could do this. It was not an easy work. The other day I had the answer from him, I just like what I am doing, he said so. He loves teaching by the way. So, Jason is the one who I look up to. That is it.

The person who I want to talk about is my uncle Sean, currently he is a very successful business man and he does the arrangement of two large international companies. Obviously, this is why he often travels by air. You know, mostly from our country to Canada. Occasionally, from Beijing to Australia. Loads of work have to be finished, he is rather busy, actually. By the way, he looks rather tall, often puts a smile of joy on his face, a very well-educated and warm-hearted man. When I was a school student, he often gave me some sorts of gifts or survivors from other places of the world, you know. But I couldn't see him that often, maybe 4 or 5 times a year. When I was young, I was wondering why he was that busy with work, I was told that it has been a part of his life, he apparently enjoyed it so much. Above all, I got to know why he could make such kinds of achievement at an early age. Dream big, work hard. That is what I have learnt from him. That is it.

The one that I want to mention about was a study team, to be precise, a study group where was full of good students and study opportunities in university library. I was arranged in team No.3, there were five of us in general. Everyone in the team had to follow the instructions, five times each week, just finish some academic work in the library on weekdays, 4 hours at a time at least. That is to say, I had to sit in the library in the evening from Monday to Friday. It was quite tough at the beginning. I kept doing this for a long time. 4 weeks later, I was used to it. I specialised in French, the grammar, vocabularies, which I thought I had the language barriers. Things changed after being a member of this team. I have had good study habits. My teammates helped me a lot, obviously. Especially when I decided to give up, they could usually supervised me, sometimes in person, occasionally through we chat, some sorts of voice message or a video call. Thanks to this special experience before, I have successfully had a desired result in my major, in the meantime, I made some new friends as well. That is it.

Mention about the topic, one day that made me feel very happy, should be my birthday. On 11th of August. See, I told you. I was born in summer time. Normally, my friends and I would have opportunities to have fun on that special day.To be exact, three of us. No matter where we are, no matter what we do, we could be having fun time together, sometimes on the Internet, occasionally through we chat or face time you know. We were actually not living and working in the same country. Last August, when my birthday came, they gave me a big surprise. When they were standing in front of me, I was totally shocked and moved by the way. No specific gifts, all what I had on that day was my truly friendship. You know, we went to the Starbucks to grab a cup of coffee, went to the restaurant after that. Nothing special, gotta be honest. They could come to me. A quite impressive day. That is it.

Mention about the topic, an interesting conversation that I had was all about marriage, you know, with my best friend. To be precise, the contestation about marriage between two men. I remembered that was three weeks ago when I had the opportunity to sit and share something one or two on life with my close friend. We actually talked a lot, include the sports, games, jobs, but the most funny part was our attitude to marriage. Since we had to think about it for sure. In my culture, as a husband, a wonderful house, a decent job, all of these factors are really important. Both of us were worrying these sorts of things you know. That is the men`s talk. We had a pretty good time that afternoon. By the way, I couldn't see him that often since he had to go on the business trip all over the world. I can say we were all busy with the work we did, apparently. So, that moment was very interesting and important conversation to us. That is it.

The perfect house for me could be located in the countryside, not in the central area of the city. As is known to all, most of us are big fan of the natural and peaceful environment. Also, the big house with a backyard or a small garden where I could sit and enjoy the sunbath is really important. It should be the essential part of choosing a living place. I think the financial support is another thing that I have to think about, I probably would get some monetary support from my parents, but not that much. So, the price of the house should affordable, 3 to 4 million Yuan, that would be wonderful. By the way, I am not planning to live on my own, my future wife, my parents or even her parents, I think that I will have a family of 8 or such. That would be one of the happiest thing in the world I suppose. See, I told you. Living in such a place with those who I love, this is why I think it wonderful. That is it.

Actually, three years ago when I had the opportunity to go on a long journey with a bunch of my close friends, to be precise, three of my roommates. We planned to spend sometime in another city of Northern part of my country, since we have never been to the the coldest place of my country before. I still remember that was the beginning of summer vacation, everything was almost well settled. The tickets, the financial support, the time management or such. Unfortunately, one of my roommates got injured the day before. His feet hurt and couldn't move a little bit. It was like disastrous, moments later, we made a decision, we arranged another starting date after he got recover. So, gotta be honest, for my part, a bit disappointed at the beginning. But the friendship seems more important than a special journey, than the money we have owned.

The person who taught me knowledge is my roommates in college, formally named, Jack. Jack looks rather tall, curly hair. But he is quite gentle and usually puts a smile of joy on his face almost everyday. Apparently, we all liked him. The point that I have learnt from this person has got to do something with money management. What I am trying to say is that he showed me how to spend money wisely. As it is known to all, young boys were not good at this point, especially when we lived independently after graduating from high school. He was a genius in this field. Meantime, several related books of economy and finance were recommended by him as well. Gotta be honest, I did learn a lot from his advice and attitude. I could say I become a good member of college students after knowing him. I even gave up drinking and smoking, you know. It used to be an important part of my financial support. Till now, those activities which were free of charge and healthy are my favorite. Such as reading and jogging for example. Thanks to his efforts, I made a change. That is it.

Mention about the topic, the moment when I had my first brand new car comes to my mind. A couple of years ago, I decided to buy a new one. But I didn't get enough financial support, so I was trying to save money as more as possible. Things changed when I had my 19th birthday, my dad gave me a surprise and a brand new Ford Focus was mine. The color was metallic grey, my favorite one. Not very expensive, like 10 000Yuan or something, the point was that my dad paid for it. That was a great deal of money to me. I was a bit shocked at the beginning. I didn't know how to show my love to him you know, a hug is everything. I remembered that was a sunny morning and I was a bit annoyed since my father woke me up quite early, we even had a disagreement on this point. LoL. Actually, things went smoothly and everything was good. We got the money from the bank, paid in cash. Waited for almost 2 hours. That was one of the happiest hours for us. So, that is it.

The crowed place that I have been to is a bookshop, where is open for 24 hours and has the free wifi as well. It is actually not a bigger place, there are only 10 seats I think. By the way, millions of books, periodicals and magazines could be found there. More importantly, you could also look for those original English version materials. You know, it is located in the central area of CBD, that is to say, people like visiting there and they apparently do this more often. Since today, ordinary people, like you and me for example, are spending more time in readings. Last weekend, I went there on my own, you know. I didn't want to get disturbed by others ones. I actually spent only 20 mins walking there because of its good location. Interestingly, I couldn't find a proper seat to sit since there were at least 100 readers at a time, it was hard to look for my ideal books. Gotta be honest, I didn't hate this feeling. Cuz all of us didn't make any sort of noises at all, crowded, though. So, this is a specific reason why I like sitting in that small and crowded bookshop. Above all, I did this more often in the past.

Mention about the topic, someone who I am really hoping to meet in person is Jack Ma, who in my consideration, is a billionaire and full of legend. He is not that tall, not that strong, but full of energy almost everyday. He could be quite famous all over the world. Since he got one of the largest companies on this globe. To be honest, I have never seen him before, I mean in life. But I could find him on TV, News and different kinds of interviews. I could say he is the one who I look up to, the point that I admire on this guy has got to do something with his special experiences, since he is now very successful, however, his childhood memories and youth life were disastrous, you know. He couldn't find a better job then, more than 50 companies said no to him. Stuff like that. I suppose most of us today might give up on the halfway, but he continues his dream, time and time again, till now. So, his patience and attitude could be the main reasons why I want to meet him in person. That is it.

A job that I couldn't say yes at all would be working at a primary school. to be exact, a primary school teacher. The job seems quite simple and it has two long vocations in summer and winter. A lot of people would love it but for me I couldn't do it well. I mean that how to spend time with those young children and kids would be like the most challenging part to me. Meanwhile, I even got no idea on how to talk to them. I mean show them something one or two on different subjects. I mean that certainly will drive me crazy. I will be mad about it and undoubtedly. In fact, a friend of mine is now working for a primary school in my region. She told me that it was not an easy work for both of us since we don't have patience. You know patience is really important if you want to do well in this area. More importantly, I have to check their homework and assignment and find out problems and mistakes each day. I mean I have to do it everyday, that could be too much to me. so here is the job I would definitely say nope.

A book that I've read and really enjoyed is named "Live the life". This book was published in 1929 and later a movie was made with the same title. I got to know it a couple of years ago, honestly, a friend of mine recommended it to me. The book is like a tragedy and family drama which can be considered as one of the most dramatic and realistic stories ever. That book deals with the life, happiness, sadness and hardships of the Roy family in a rural area. Because of their terrible conditions, they moved to a different place in search of a better life, but they had to face a great deal of problems and losses during their travel to a new destination. The book describes the rural life and its people, their suffering, their joy, the beautiful countryside, green fields, flowers and many more things that become alive in the story thanks to the great writing style of the writer. He wrote them in a couple of pages, you know, those people who were living a century ago, and then he started telling the story of a typical family who was struggling more than the others, even in an area where people already had problems to live. This book marked me because it made me look at different life and the people with another eye. Above all, this has made me very warm inside as I have a clear view of the history and its past life.

School days were the best part of my life. But there were some rules that I dislike, and getting punished for not taking homework was one of them. Without consideration for the possible reason, the teachers and the schools made the rule to us. This rule was made to dissuade the bad students from trying to escape their duties, but the innocent students were also involved in. The majority of them was against the rule but had no way to express their feelings. You know, most of them just forgot the paper on the table, or had good reasons for not taking it. The teachers did not really punish us all the way. In fact, we had to do the homework during class, and we had to complete them by the time the class was over. I have to say that it was nearly impossible to focus on the course and the homework at the same time. As a result, the students who were punished had to sacrifice the class lessons. I feel like it was a total waste of time, and it could not impact the students positively, because we all believe that 80% of the understanding is done in class. For all these reasons, I did not like that rule in school, and tried my best with some friends to make the schools remove it from the rules.

I was very fond of toys in my childhood. In fact, playing with toys was my favorite activity. I had a good collection of toys. There were different toys like cars, bikes, dolls, some guns and a robot as well. However, my favorite on was a remote-controlled car. It was a small version of a Ferrari, which is one of the most famous racing brands today. My father gave it to me after I asked it for so long, it was on my tenth birthday. I loved it the moment I saw it, and couldn't take my eyes off it, and if I had been allowed to, I would have taken it to school with me every day. It looked quite amazing and trendy. It was red in color which was my favorite one. It had some wonderful features. For example, it had a beautiful body. The wheels were stunning as well. It had a rechargeable battery and a radio remote control also, so I could drive it all around the house. But the fascinating thing about the car was its speed. It was amazingly fast. I remember that I had a friend who had a similar car, so we would always have little races of our own, and I always won, he was so annoyed every time. It was by far my favorite toy, and the best gift I got. It was so special that I still have it today. It doesn't work anymore, but it is still beautiful, and I put it in my bedroom.

About that topic, I would like to talk about the river that crosses Venice, the famous Italian city for lovers. It is no secret today that in order to please your girlfriend or wife and do something romantic for her, you should take her to that particular city. I can't say why this city became the capital town of love, but today it is undeniable. And it has one famous attraction, which is a little boat ride on that special river. Not only Italian people, but more generally people from all around the world come for that ride. It is a very relaxing and romantic experience, because the river is so clean and calm. The boat only hosts 4 people, which are the sailor, a singer, and the two lovers. While the boat goes very slow, there is a person who sings love songs, and the couple can enjoy a good time while crossing that river. Back in the days, it was even more important because the locals used that water to live. They had a system that purifies the water so that they can drink it, or cook with it, and so on. They also used it to water the plants and the trees which would give them nice fruits and vegetables. It used to be a very rainy region, so the level of the river never went down. I really hope that one day I can take my girl there, since it is pretty expensive to visit.

I've met many smart people in my life. Today, I'm going to talk about one in particular. His name is David. Originally, he is from a small part of Thailand, but his family moved to China 5 years ago. So, now, he lives in Shanghai with his parents. David works as a car designer in BMW, a renowned automobile company. He is appointed in the head office in Shanghai. He completed his Bachelor of Technology in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Shanghai. I feel that he is one of the smartest men I have ever seen. Despite being a fresh graduate, he was offered a place in a world-class organization. Many senior people struggle for years to join such companies. He made it in the first year of his career. That is definitely a remarkable achievement. This was made possible because he knows so much about various subjects, I love discussing with him because he always has an answer to my questions, and even if he doesn't, he knows what to do to get the answer. Another reason why I think he is brilliant is that he is an active learner. Normally, when anyone starts working, they don't like improving their knowledge or skills. But, this is not the case with him. He is always willing to expand his knowledge and general culture. He often reads periodicals and attends seminars to keep himself updated with the latest information. All these things make him different from others. I can't help but admire him. He is a role model for me.

I can't recall the name of this person but he was around 40 years old. On the date of job interview, I reached the office and I was completely wet because a hard rain hit me on the way. I could not wait somewhere scaring that I would be late for the interview. After I got there, he asked me to wait in the conference room and did not show up in next 30 minutes. After that I handed him the papers very politely and he was very much annoyed because he could not find the original certificates. I told him that I was required to bring the copies. I also assured him that I can provide the necessary documents anytime he likes. He got even angrier when he noticed that my clothes were wet. He did not even offer me a dry towel or something like that. From the very first moment I met him, I disliked him. He was mean, rude and unfriendly. When he told me that I was not properly dressed for the interview indicating my wet shirt, I first wanted to leave the office immediately. However, I didn't do it in that way. I finally got the job, but it was a hard time to go through.

Well, I'm a big fan of barbecues and I would like to talk about the first time I tried some typical barbecue food. This happened when I was 10 years old. My family and I went out to celebrate my birthday. After putting so much thought into some new food of our meal, we decided to go to a BBQ restaurant not very far from our house. It was a typical South-American restaurant and the waiters were wearing large straw hats, like they would in their country. We ordered three dishes with different tastes. One of them which really interested me was made of grilled beef, flavored with some spices that I never tasted before, but they made the meat taste so good that it felt like a dream. Not only was it delicious, but also looked appealing, with lots of colors and side food to accompany the meat. There also was a salad, but not the typical one. It was very rich and even had all kinds of meat in it, I liked it very much. Then we tried the grilled fish which came with a green sauce that seemed weird at first but was perfect. What I really enjoyed was that we could watch as it was cooked in front of us. I loved how juicy it was and the scent it had. Just mentioning about it that makes me want to go back again. I mean, this BBQ was out of this world. That was the first time I had tried some foreign food, and I really enjoyed that experience.

Mention about the topic, I think a public coffee shop which is on the mountain comes to my mind. You know, to be exact, it is located in the suburb not the city center, apparently, quite a few people get to know such a special place. People who like coffee and the natural environment can travel there more often, as it is definitely a great place for them to rest their mind in general. Last weekend, we spent 2 hours on the road to reach there, a friend of mine drove his car. Actually, It is a big coffee shop, with 2 large gardens at the back, you know, that is the place where we can drink coffee and play some cards or other games, more importantly, the bean they used is quite impressive, all the beans are originally from other parts of this world, like the South America, or Europe, you can give it a try if you would like to have a good understanding of the reality of coffee, it never let you down. What is more, I am pretty busy with my academic study and part time job, I need a place where I could embrace the nature, the fresh air, the slow place of life, it is not a city life there, so, the coffee shop on the mountain represents a peaceful life that I wish to have in the future. That is it.

In some terms, living in the Middle Age was beneficial. Life was not so much complicated as it is found today. People used to live near nature. And there were fewer traffic in the street. Though the streets were crowded all day, there were no troubles among the pedestrians. The other important benefit was that they did not think so much about the career or about the other silly issues, you know, in the present day people usually think too much. The pressure seemed quite much heavier today. But there were some drawbacks as well. The classification was the most important problem at that time. The tools of entertainment were quite limited, and the lower parts of the society had no or little access to such activities. The daily life in this age was the subject of wealth and power. I would like to have lived in that period. I am truly amazed every time I read about it or watch documentaries. Very amazing people lived in that period, like the great artist and scientist and I feel like I want to meet them, exchange and try to understand what motivated them, what I am trying to say is that, what made them so different from the others. That is the historical period that I am interested in.

There are lots of public places in my city that need improvement in my opinion, but one of the most important part is the hospital. It is pretty old and got in a pretty bad condition, but it's difficult to have changes in a space that is always full of people. And unfortunately, if we close it for an amount of time in order to improve it, it can be complicated. So, maybe one of the best alternatives would be to build a new one. As far as I know, my area definitely needs a well-equipped healthcare center. If they could improve the equipment and medicine in the hospitals it would be better for the staff since they could treat patients more rapidly. I hope that the government improves the health system because it's becoming more difficult to get treated due to a high number of patients and limited number of doctors. And since the doctors feel like they are being underpaid, they just leave the hospitals in order to open their own private business or stuff like that. I think that if the conditions of the hospitals and its staff are improved, everyone will benefit from it. It would be better if the government put more money into hospitals in the future.

My favorite season of the year is summer because of the warm weather, the school vacation, and the endless fun. I really enjoy the warm weather because it's the perfect atmosphere to do outdoor activities. My favorite part about summer has to be the fact that school is closed for two months. During summer, you're free to do whatever you want, not worrying about curfew or waking up early for school. Summer time is a great time to relax with friends and family by enjoying the sun at a beach or simply having dinner together. Summer season is the best part for festivals and activities. You can never get bored on a summer day or night. During the day, there are fun activities such as swimming, sports, picnics, and barbecues. Friends and family spend a lot of time together during the that period. Everyone is laughing and having a good time. Summer evenings are the proper for concerts, movies, parties, and relaxing with those people that you like. The summer evenings are beautiful because of the sparkly city lights. One of the best events of the year, August 1st, happens during summer. The celebration of August 1st is wonderful. People gather around to celebrate and watch the display of fireworks. The vibrant colors and the loud sound of the fireworks are amazing. The dragon boating festival which has been with us for years seems more fun that you expect. These are the reasons why I love this season the most.

My grandfather is the elderly in my family that I would like to talk about. He lives with us here in my parents' house. He is an intelligent and active man even in the 70s. Most of his stories are made from his real-life experience because he served for many years as a pilot in the army. So, I enjoy talking to him and learn many invaluable lessons from each of our conversations. He has travelled to different parts of the world and so his knowledge is far richer than the other members of my family. He also loves spending time with me and teaches me about the way he sees life, the way he dealt with his issues, and quite frankly I agree with him on his point of the world and the people. Apart from chatting, we also often go in the garden and have sessions of yoga. It may sound weird, but many people are mistaken about that activity. When it's done properly, it can relieve a lot of tension in the body, and help with relaxation, weight loss, and all types of issues. He has done it for quite some time now, so he knows many different moves and positions in order to have certain results. He is old but that is what makes him so interesting, because as the old saying goes, old is gold.

I have celebrated many events just like everybody obviously, but the one that really marked me and that I would like to talk about is the party that was organized for my 12th birthday. It was so long ago, but I clearly remember it because of the special treatment that I received that day. As soon as I woke up my parents were standing in front of my bed with wide smiles, and a small piece of cake. I guess they were trying to make it look like they wanted to do something simple, and I was kind of disappointed. Then I went to school and when it was time to go home, my father picked me up, but he didn't take the usual way back home. I was skeptical but didn't say a word. Instead, he took me to a small amusement park in my town, and all my friends were already there waiting for me with my mother. I was so excited about it, that I started crying. It was the best day ever, because I ate a very good cake, spent some quality time with my friends, and I felt amazing to know that all this was just for me. My mother bought a special camera for the occasion and we took hundreds of pictures. Even today when I feel nostalgic, I take my phone out and look at those photos again.

I'll tell you about my first car. I bought it a couple of years ago. I had decided to buy a car about six months before I actually had it. I wanted to buy a car because where I was studying seemed quite far away and getting on buses everyday was a bit bothersome. At that time, I was also working part-time in a local restaurant at nights and sometimes we used to finish working quite late and getting a bus to my house was a problem. apparently, I couldn't afford a new car, but I started to save as much money each week as I could. I even took on an extra part-time job at the weekends which helped me to save even more money in a quite efficient way. I stopped going out so much and was very careful with the money I spent on other things while I was saving. After about six months, I realized I had enough to think about buying it. In the end, I finally bought a used car from a man who lived quite close to me. It was an old car, but it was in good condition as he had looked after it well. He had been the only owner of the car since it was new, so this made me feel confident that it would be a perfect buy. Not surprisingly, I was very excited after buying it and spent all my spare time driving around visiting places or taking my friends out for trips. It was great to be able to go anywhere, anytime without having to worry about buses or taxis again.

The primary function of advertising is to persuade people to buy something. Consequently, understanding how advertising influences people is understanding how advertisements create buying decisions. It is an effective means of communicating information about products and services to many consumers at once. This information plays a key role in educating people about different brands' functions and features, like how they work, what they cost and where they can be purchased. This helps buyers make choices and satisfy their needs and expectations. Additionally, advertising makes shopping simpler and more time-efficient. It helps eliminate unnecessary decision-making at the point of purchase. Particularly in crowded product categories like snack foods, video games and so on. By all means, we can say that it is catchy, ads will certainly draw lots of customers. Therefore, companies invest so much in ads as well, because they know that it will put them on the map.

When I say that a good parent I would like to talk about is my mom. She is a perfect gentle and strong woman, who tries her best to combine work and family life. She has been a loving and caring person, and she is the one that helps me keep my feet to the ground, to get me grown. I mean I am trying to say it's like my father is my guide, but my mom is my landmark. She is more important. Being a woman has never been easy, and even today, they are seen as being equal to men. My mom always told me that in order to be respected, a person has to work twice as more as other people, and this is what she has always done. She refuses to be taking care of by my father and she is quite independent. so she also brings some money and food to the table. More importantly, she has always been able to make me understand life matters without having to be harsh or anything. She is so kind and patient. All these ingredients are what make her a great talent. So that's it.

Mention about the topic, a person formally named lao wang is the one that I like to talk about. Actually, he is a good friend of mine, 22 years old and majors in Chinese and history, certainly, he keeps talking something about those subject almost everyday, from middle age to modern society, from Chinese language to historical event. I can say that he is the one that influence me a lot. At the beginning, I have disagreement with him, apparently, I couldn't stand that way he talks when we spend time together. I honestly tried to persuade him, eventually, it doesn't work at all. Interestingly, he showed me something on how to find a balanced way to stay in a good relationship with friends, like the importance of being patient or how to a be a good listener, seriously, he is that sort of talented lecturer, till now, I find that be more talkative, make me feel good and happy to talk to the other person.You know, I have always been a rather private person, what I am trying to say is that I was not talkative and a bit sacred of doing that, but I make the change because of him. So, that is it.

Mention about the topic, Note-taking is the part that certainly can help me stay focused on my study. In fact, I get to know this method from a good friend of mine. He, who is the best student in our class, showed me how to get well prepared for academic study. You know, I usually like analysis and writing when I am sitting in the lecture or completing my reports. The core is that, note-taking is surely playing an important role in this trend. In the past, I preferred writing them down on the paper, by doing so, I could have a better understand of the whole thing that is discussed in the curriculums, even sometimes I didn't attend the courses. Till now, thanks to the advancement of modern technology, more options are available to help me concentrate on note-taking, like the recorder of my mobile phone, apparently, this is a more reliable way to assist me to prepare the lecture or presentation. More importantly, it is nearly free of charge. So, that is my point. That is it.

Mention about the person who is quite professional, my personal fitness trainer formally named Jenny is the one that I want to talk about. I get to know her a couple of years ago when I made up my mind to stay a good body shape. She is doing pretty well in dietary management and fat loss, certainly, this is probably why I find she is a perfect personal trainer. More importantly, she is quite patient and she is always full of energy everyday. What I am trying to say is that she is quite dedicated to her work, I can tell you. You know, for me, the most challenging part of reducing body fat is about how to keep doing that for a long period of time, this is the core for almost every one that wants to build muscle. Actually, Jenny made a flexible schedule and different kinds of plans for me, by doing so, I could find a balanced way between dietary control and fat loss, you know, I am a fruit lover, and not willing to eat meat at all. So, she often helps me get ready for my special meal in advance, which is full of all kinds of fruits that I like. This is quite impressive and she is professional as well. So, Jenny is the person who I believe quite professional. That is it.

Mention about the topic, a bicycle that has been with me for years is the thing that I`d like to talk about. Frankly speaking, I had my own bicycle when I was studying in the university in the first year. I did a part time job for a couple of months in order to get a bicycle. A bit expensive or something, like 1000 Yuan. For me, it was rather pricy at that time, but I loved it so much. More importantly, it was quite user-friendly and it was required for almost every one that studied on campus, you know, as our university is extremely large. Unfortunately, it was lost someday during my third year of student life. I was very very sad about that, a bit angry as well. I even didn't know how to get it back and what to do with this situation. This bicycle mean a lot to me, it was the first thing that I bought according to my efforts, more importantly, I used it almost every day. After having it, I didn't have to get up very early in the morning, cuz it helps me save a lot time and energy. No matter where I go, no matter what I do, this bicycle is aways with me. So, this sort of experience is quite impressive. That is it.
