My autobiography

　　My name is Xuan. There are five family members in my home, and I am included. I live in a small town of Tainan; the surroundings are very simple and quiet. I am glad that I born to my parents, for they are the best parents in the world. My father is both rigorous and benign to us. It is because he places great emphasis on our schoolwork and the development of reading. But instead of blaming my occasional bad scores, he often comforts and encourages me to study hard. Besides, when my father has free time, he sometimes takes my sisters and me to library to spend the holidays. Also, he is responsible for the whole family. He works very hard and late; besides, he never complains about the work. Moreover, he often encourages my sisters and I to study hard and to read more meaningful books in order to progress our knowledge. My father always teaches us “Never give up”, and he always holds a positive attitude toward life and it affects my personality a lot. Due to my father, I am optimistic and outgoing. Moreover, when facing the difficulties, I never feel frustrated. Rather, I take it as an opportunity to become more capable. When it comes to my lovely mother, she is second to none in my eyes. My mother takes charge of everything in my home, and she is very careful and easygoing. She is always willing to help others and never ask for rewards. From what is mentioned above, I learned a lot from my parents such as being optimistic when facing the challenges, and I always look on the bright side even if I fail what I want to achieve. The atmosphere of my family is very harmonious; therefore, I love my family very much.

　I applied to Department of Applied Foreign Languages of National Tainan Commercial Vocational Senior high school. It’s because I have a strong passion for languages, especially English. I’ve been learning English since I was an elementary school student. From then on, I found it is interesting to learn English. Nevertheless, I didn’t stand out on the crowd then; hence, I tried my best to strengthen my English ability for the enthusiasm and improvement. When I was a junior high school student, my English scores always on the first place in the class, but I didn’t satisfy and feel proud. I kept on learning English by listening to English songs, reading English magazines, watching movies in English, writing diary in English and so on. When I was an eight-grader, I passed the elementary level of General English Proficiency Test (GEPT). After graduating the junior high school, I chose to keep on my passion. Therefore, I applied to vocational senior high school in order to select the English as my major. In the NTCVS, I really improved my English ability a lot. The intensive English-related classes promoted me keep on listening, speaking, reading, writing English every day. Besides, I took part in a lot of contests related to English. For instance, I was selected from my class to contest the national vocabulary competition. Besides, my classmates and I were chose to perform the English story-telling in school. Moreover, I volunteered to take part in the English power point contest, and I also got a good grade. From the various competitions I had participated, I passed the intermediate of GEPT without effort. On top of that, I also join many extracurricular activities such as volleyball, basketball competition with my classmates. During the seniro high life, i leared a lot of things and became more mature. The memories in my senior high school are so wonderful and unforgetable that I will never forget.

　When it comes to my interests, I think I am really active and vigorous. As the saying goes,” All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Hence, my parents put great emphasis on schoolwork and entertainment. Besides studying, I’m fond of playing volleyball with my classmates. Not until I played it did I find it is so interesting! It’s because I love the atmosphere of teamwork and the feelings of victory. Additionally, the relationship between my classmates and me also become better and better in the volleyball contests. Apart from volleyball, basketball is also one of my favorite sports. I feel enthusiastic in the basketball contests and I always do my utmost to score on the court. Moreover, enjoying running, I practice running twice a week and so I can run faster than almost my peers; consequently, I was elected to take part in the race contests such as 100-meter race and 800-meter relay by my classmates in the sport meet. Aside from sports, I also like to practice my both Chinese and English typing abilities when I have free time. As a result, I got 72 words per minute in Chinese typing test. From what is mentioned above, I think my life is colorful and wonderful because I feel energetic every day.
　
　Having a passion for English, I am willing to dedicate myself to learning it after I graduate from senior high school. As far as I am concerned, learning English is not only for earning high scores in school but for satisfying my desire to advance my English abilities. Hence, I hope I have opportunity to enter English Department of National Taiwan University of Science and Technology. With the wonderful facilities, exceptional teachers and competitive students there, I am convinced that I can and amass adequate abilities. With a view to entering my ideal university, I lay the breakground in my junior high life. When I was a senior high school student, I made great progress in English. As a consequence, I hope I can qualify for your university in the future.

Though learning well languagess is not so easy in a short time, I still stick to my faith that "No pain, no gain." Moreover, with my interest in English, I have confidence that I can overcome any predicament when learning it. As a result, I enjoy learning it and I hope I can become a valuable person in the foreseeable future.

My name is Wei Wei Chang, who is 18 years old and was born in I-Lan. There are seven members in my family. My grandparents who are so kind teach me a lot of things about our traditional customs in Taiwan . I think that is very interesting and remarkable for every citizen of Taiwan . When I was a child my parents aimed at the development of my personality. My father is a simple and down-to-earth person. My mother has a mild character, who is also a good housewife. My older sister is a beautician, and my younger brother is a junior middle school student. I was grown up in such a fabulous atmosphere; therefore, I have a positive point of view about everything.

I am studying in St. Mary’s School of Nursing which is a vocational high school in I-Lan. I have been studying for nursing since three years ago. In my first grade, I attended to English oral competition and got the third place. Besides, I still took this competition the next year and got the same result, the third. One thing I want to mention is I joined the special club, which is an organization to help and concern the elder in a community. That was also a wonderful and unforgetful experience in my high school life.

I have a lot of different hobbies, for example, I joined English Conversation Club, Guitar Club, and POP Club. They are all my favorite activities which helped me gain so many skills from this kind of learning. For instance, how to create a beautiful poster, how Americans use their daily life slang, and how to play an instrument of guitar to my unhappy crying friends, etc.

In my free time, I like reading, playing basketball, go shopping with friends, or cooking with my mother. When we have a holiday, I like to go traveling with my lovely family best. Listening to music is also the way I relax myself. By the way, when I feel blue, I prefer talking to my mother or friends to get their opinion.

My strength is I am kind of considerate person. The reason I describe myself this way is because of my future career, a nurse. In my mind, a nurse should help the sick without complaint. However, this is a long way to go, and I will try my best to achieve this goal. In the future, I hope I can contribute all I have learned to the people who need. Of course, I still desire to learn more from the other task which I might face hereafter. To make my dream come true, I will try my best to work harder; thus, I believe that I will possess these professional abilities to perform my dream step by step smoothly.

　A large change of Acton, a small town in the Midwest is that a large profit-driven factory will be built in the foreseeable future. It will have a great effect on this austere area; in my opinion, I’m against this idea for some explanations below. Firstly, this big project will affect the locals’ environment where they have been familiar with for a long time. Besides, the residents have to make adjustment for this big change and it will take a great time for them.

　On September 5, Michael Williams opened a small music store selling compact discs. Nevertheless, it didn’t last long and he closed his shop on September 19. Hence, according to this situation there are some analyses below. The most obvious point is that the location is definitely not a good place. It’s because the shop is situated on the small side street just outside of town. Furthermore, it is near a shopping center that has two large music stores. The small shop can’t be compared to the music stores for they are big and in good location. Second, the music style of CD is not so popular with the local residents because the majority of the locals are at the age of 51~60. However, there are still some teenagers but they don’t have the ability to purchase because they are too young. Third, the opening time is absolutely a critical point when it comes to the income of the shop. It only opened during Monday to Friday from 1 to 5 p.m. But this period didn’t attract a lot of people to visit. Many people prefer to go shopping when they have free time, especially on weekends. Finally, on account of not accepting checks or credit cards, Michael got fewer guests. Many people will consider it is not convenient for they don’t want to bring too much cash on hand. From what is mentioned above, the reasons why his shop closed down are very apparent and I think he should think twice before starting another biz.

I’m looking for an excellent English instructor for my school. Therefore, there were many people sending their resumes to me. After selecting there were still two resumes left, which were from Lynn Whitnall and Debra Fines. However, they had bothered me for a few days. Both of them are pretty good but major in different fields. Finally, I made the decision and employed the latter. It’s because the level of education of Debra is higher than Lynn. I think Debra had mastered English for she had studied in three English-related Universities. In contrast, Lynn only studied Spanish which I don’t put so much emphasis on when I look for an English instructor. Besides, the employment experience of the latter is much more than the former. Based on much working experience, I’m convinced that Debra is capable of doing a new job and she’ll adapt to new environment faster than Lynn. What’s more, Debra’s has some publications such as English Verb Tenses is included. This is what I focus on and want to present to the audience of our school.
