It is difficult for me to define some qualities of a favorable roommate, because of my accommodating character which make it easy for me to live together with various characteristic people. Although almost all my roommates have harmonious relationships with me, I still failed to appreciate or accept their several qualities as well as habits.

 

A kind roommate should not be a heavy smoker, otherwise he should have a habit of not smoking in the dorm, which, however, is constantly ignored by them. For example, my closed friend berthing beside me in the college used to make a cigarette on the bed before going to sleep. At the beginning, I did my best to endure his self-centered action, but after some days, I could not control my temper, warning and persuading him to quit smoking. After that, he no longer dared to do that in the room.

 

Moreover, if a person always violate the regular of sleeping time, it is difficult for him to become a popular roommate. Someone, with overwhelming energy and passion either on study or on entertainment all day and all night, make it possible to disturb other students in the same dorm. For instance, it is common without doubt that before the final examination , some of students have to spend the whole night on preparation of test, which are likely to affect other’s regular rest.

 

Every roommate has their drawback and virtue in character and habit. Some of roommates are bed-tempered, but on the other hand, they are likely to be warm-hearted. They might make effort to assist you when you make trouble. Some of them maybe are absent-minded or laid-back, on the contrary, it is possible that they are easy-going or open-minded. They could bring happiness to you when you feel upset or alone. Therefore, look at through a different lens and we will see anther different person whom you seemingly dislike him.

 

Dear teacher

 

I am chen, your student in tsinghua University . I am so sorry for my absence in the last English course, for I forgot this important day carelessly. Last week, all the courses, except oral English course, were finished, so I neglected the fact that today is Tuesday. You know, I never miss any course you taught, so please forgive me.

More importantly, I shall appreciate you, for my oral English have been improved so much during this term. You definitely are the one of the best respectable teachers I’ve ever met. Thanks a lot.

 

Best wish to you

Yesterday, I attented a lecture about jew or jewry, which was made by a American jew. To one’s surprise, I got knowledge what I desired to know for a long time.

Jew have a old and famous history. before 6000 years ago, a man created the first bible of jewry, but unfortunately, they have fought for their position thousand years. Almost 2000 years ago, the roman Empire, Constantine , established a religion of Christianism according to Jewry. And then, he tried to sweep out all of jews, who were unwilling to change their mind to believe the new religion. The jew have to move and immigrate to all over the Europe , even Asia . Especially, when they arrive their traditional and original home , City of David , they were attacked by Arab, who have resided for a long time. Last century, jews at their homes in Germany were killed or destroyed once upon time due to racial discrimination. It was a tragic history, but conflictions between jewry and other nationality still go on. In 1970s, the nation union helped jews establishing a country of Israel , but nowadays, bombs and terrorist attacks happened everyday.

In the lecture, there was a special listener, with long bear, looked like 40 yeas old, who is a Arab in Pakistan . With his poor Oral English, he asked some questions about why there are so many wars against Israel and Jewry. One of three jews in the lecture argued that all jews just want to have a country and homes, and they are welcome to all the other people living their country , but the Arab people hate jews, then the war had to be proceed. Obviously, this answer felled to satisfied that Arab man, but this conversation full of disrespect was suspended. 

To my dog,

 

    Yesterday, my friends and I talk about the story of our dogs, which make me remember my late dog. You, my poor dog, Huanhuan, was dead on December 2005. In that time, I was devoting on an important examination. So, apparently I didn't move by the unfortunate accident, but my heart was broken whenever I remembered that I had lost my eight years' old friend forever.

    My parents and my gf had worse feeling than me, because they love you much more. I know you were not an excellent dog or pet, and you definitely failed to belong to the smart kind. However, you are loyal and honest, and you never bite any fitment, chair or shoes.

    I do remember: You used to peer at us to desire some foods to you, then you would be satisfied when getting a little chicken bone. You used to remind my father getting up early, but one day you mistakenly regarded me as my father and waked up me through jumping my bed. You used to ignore and look down upon every lady dogs you met, so you failed to have baby until your leaved us to heaven.

    we miss you, doggy. And I hope you could take care yourself in the heaven.

Enumerable scientists indulged into the research of origination of human. Recent results disproved that mankind had originated in South Africa. however, some facts , according to archaeologists in the West , presented that Europe should be the center of mankind. Moreover, they argued that the oldest of humanity’s cultural pretensions should be European. Why are there so many different opinions about this problem?

The mainly reason, I think, is that nationalism urge many elites to promote this research. I ever heard about the arguments of origination of world war two, in which, different views of point emerged after the war: some people believed that because Europe was the main ground of war , it is inevitable that the time of German invading Netherlands should be the beginning of the war. But, some historian from Russia denied this ideal, insisting that the time of German invading Russia should be considered as the setout of the war. Even our country’s researcher suggested that the beginning of the war should be the time of Japan invading china. I don’t want to make it clear which is the validate conclusion, for in nature, the result of history is easy to be changed according to the various views and outlooks.

As depicted in the picture, a blond, fashion and plump lady is appreciating the picture before her, in which a slim and charming young lady are making a fascinating pose. Under that picture , there is a new scale looked like never being touched or used. It’s unquestionable that the lady, who regard the picture as a mirror , prefer to imagine her unreal striking body rather than simply weight herself by that scale.

 

Any observer can find the implied meaning in the cartoon: people tend to be willing to deceive themselves by the false and imaginative reality , instead of revealing the true distant between the ideal and the real. I can think of no better illustration of this idea than the fact that a candidate seemingly could not acknowledge his merits and the deficiency of working experience or the other skills, when he make an application for a job. Reports from the government can also be a good instance. From these reports, the invalid and exaggerated data constantly were illustrated by the authority as facts which could definitely prove their achievement during the period of serving for people. Moreover, people have reluctantly accustomed to those superficial situation, and distrust any proofs and felled to take reports seriously in nature.

 

Some people has begun to trace the root of this miserable fact, but more attention should be paid to avoid this falsehood. One must not only forbid himself not to deliberately or unconsciously cheating himself and other people, but also largely denounce and despise those with the disturbing and frustrating attitude , which may easily arise in the cheating behavious.

I have to persist in enduring the everyday busy life like recent days . Sometimes, I thought I should be divided two myself. One might be responsible for working and study, the other might enjoy my life.

Compared with the Chinese elderly, why are there apparently more old people in America who pursuit independent life?

Although we have the fine tradition of respecting and raising aged people in china, the phenomena that different ages bring about the contradiction of ideas between old people and their children , has to be paid more attention. Likewise, the traditionally independent character in America, I think , is possibly attributed to fill the gap of the thoughts between the old and the young.

I conclude there are other reasons as followed:

First of all, living condition is the one of other main reasons. In china, with the increasing number of people, there seldom are the families which can provide spare houses for the elderly. This situation tend to lead them to reluctantly stay with their sons.

Secondly, the elderly Chinese have no belief or religion which can rescue people out of fear of death. They are unwilling to live alone, because no one can help them out of emergency. In spirit, they are discouraged to face death lonely without their relative’s cherisher.

Moreover, illiteracy is a problem among the elderly Chinese. Most of the aged people have no ability to acquire the knowledge from books except of some superficial TV programs. On the other hand, the barrier of communication impel them to connect only with a limited few friends. Therefore, they focus either on their family contradictions which are likely to anguish and frustrate them deeply., or on how to negatively avoid illness and death, which, to some extent, take a heavy burden on their mind.

 

 When I decided to quit my full time employment it never occurred to me that I might become a part of a new national trend. My boring and repeating jobs that blocked my professional progress prompted me to abandon my relatively high profile career, although , in the matter of a responsible stuff, I covered my exit by claiming “ I like this job, but I feel tired ”.

 Nothing could persuade me to return to the kind of life that I used to enjoyed: 12 hour working days, pressing deadlines, the fearful strain of office politics and limitation of entertainment. I am blind to the result of keeping working in this company, for the better and higher position that I pursuit have to spend me more than ten years to promote with the method of working steadily and silently. So, I wonder whether it is worthy to going on.

 I am willing to change my lifestyle without cherishing the present position of keeping juggling through everyday. I will enjoy the real life.
