1.    Make a brief introduction of your favorite room in your house.
Speaking of the favorite room in my house, I would like to talk about my own bed room, as it makes me relaxed and comfortable. It is made up by a queen size bed, a coach and a big closet. The reason I love my little bedroom is because of the closet as it contains all my eye-catching clothes, fancy bags and beautiful shoes. Every time when I open my closet, it gives me a great sense of satisfaction.  Moreover, when I am tired from studying, the coach is the best place that allows me to relax and refresh. My bedroom is my favorite room in the house which provides me a space to relax and enjoy.

2.    Describe a character in a book, film, or poem, explain why you like it.
Mike is the character I like in a book called “Keep the Aspidistra flying” written by George Orwell. In the story, he is a persistent man who is determined to be a poet. In order to pursue his dream, he abandons his well-paid job. Instead, he works as a low-paid bookstore assistant day after day, so that he could read more books. The reason I like him is because of his persistence. I believe in the old Chinese saying‘constant dropping wears the stone’.If I could be as persistent as he is, I believe I will eventually achieve my goal which is to be a writer. In summary, this character in the book really gives me great inspiration and courage.  

3.    Talk about a beneficial change that can improve your country.
The biggest beneficial change in my country is the so-called ‘the reform and open to the world policy’. It was started in December 1978 by one of the greatest reformist Deng Xiaoping who was the leader of Communist Party of China(CPC). The biggest benefit of ‘the reform and open policy’ is the booming economy. One of the most classic examples is from my family. I remember my mum told me that when she was a little girl, she could only buy new dress once a year. This is very common to every family at that time. However, now we can buy new dress whenever we feel like. In conclusion, the “reform and open policy” improved the economy and life quality in our country.

4.    What suggestions would you like to give to a child who is starting school for the first time? Use reasons and specific examples to explain why these suggestions are important.
The suggestion that I would like to give a child who is starting school for the first time is to be outgoing and make as many friends as possible. It is crucial to make new friends when we come to a new environment, as it could help us to be familiar with the school. For instance, I remember when I first went to school, I made a friend who is one year older than me. She always took care of me. She showed me around the school, introduced me to her friends and offered me some tips about how to study in a smart way. For example, she told me never be unprepared before class and always listen carefully to the assignment instructions. I really received a lot of benefits by making news friends in school, thus I strongly suggest child who is starting school for the first time to make friends and get along with them.

5      Will you go to foreign country to study in university or college, why?
I think I will definitely study aboard for the university instead of college, as it is more qualified which might lead me to a more promising future.  Although colleges and universities have a lot in common, for instance, they prepare young adults for work; provide a great understanding of the world and its past, help students learn to value arts and science.universities carry out far more researches than colleges do. Moreover, they offer more programs in different areas of study, for undergraduate and postgraduate students. Therefore, I will choose to go to university, as studying in university gives me more options in choosing subjects and provides meopportunity to do researches in the field I am interested. In addition, universities are often much larger than colleges which means there are more students, so I can make more friends. As a result, I think studying in university might be more beneficial to my future career and becoming more qualified.

My favorite game in my childhood is jigsaw puzzles which is my 5th birthday gift from my mother. Jigsaw puzzles aregood for brain exercise, as it is believed to be able to enhance brainpower. Moreover, I was really obsessive about it. I still remember clearly that I used to play it all day everyday and never feel bored. In addition, I like the pictures of jigsaw puzzles. When I spelled the jigsaw puzzles, I liked to drawn the pictures of jigsaw puzzles on paper. Playing jigsaw puzzles not only made my childhood more colorful, but also enhanced my brainpower and drawing.

7. Is it good or bad, If e-books instead of paper books in library? Talk about some advantages of doing so.
I think it is good to have e-books in library instead of paper books. Reasons being are that it is environmental friendly by doing so and all students can share the books at the same time. As we know that paper books are made of trees. A whole library of books means there are a lot of trees being cut off. If people start using e-books, trees in the world will be saved. As a result, we will have more greens on our planet.

I remember when i was studying in university, my friend and I always have to share books in the library, because the copies of the books we wanted are limited. If e-books are taking place, such an issue will not happen, since everybody can read the same book at the same time.

In conclusion, I strongly prefer e-books instead of paper books. Since it is making our planet a better home to live, and also it is convenient for students to read.

“Electronic books” as known as “e-books”, is a product of the new era. It is a great invention after computers. More and more students nowadays prefer e-books to the traditional paper books or magazines since it is easy to carry, cheaper to buy, environmental friendly and the list goes on.

Firstly, the traditional paper books or magazines are heavy. I remember when I was studying, I always had to carry lots of books to school. Imagine if e-books can take place, all the paper books in our school bags can be condensed into a tiny tablet computer, which i believe is what a lot of people my age dreamed of.
Secondly, the paper books or magazines are more costly than e-books due to the material used. For the same amount of money we spend, we can buy more e-books than paper books. Which it gives us change to read more.
Thirdly, paper books are made of paper which is made of trees. By reducing the amount of paper books in the market, more trees on the planet will be saved and our world will have more green.

As a result, electronic books are more popular among the students. Because they are lighter, cheaper and will make out planet a better home.

10. Do you like talking to your older family members ( grandmother or uncle)?
Yes, I like to talk to my father as he is an inspired philanthropist and successful businessman whom I could always learn a lot from. Moreover, he is also an far-sighted and wised man, thus whenever I havetroubles in study or work, I always talk to him and seek for his help. I remember when I was a small kid, I was once hurt by my best friend and felt being betrayed as she exposed my little secrete to other people. Therefore, I became very upset and even furious. I came to my father and complained to him about how bad that person is. However, after listening to my ‘tragedy story’, he told me I should feel grateful about what happened to me, and even thank my friend; as she gave me a lesson that there are privacy and space even between best friends.
