(Please correct me)Describe the difference between Taipei, Beijing, and Shanghai. Describe the difference between Taipei, Beijing, and Shanghai. Taipei is well-known for IT Technology in the world. If you enjoy shopping, you can visit ZhongXiao East Road, which is called “Shopping Paradise” in Taipei. If you like sampling delicious food, the stories here provide all kinds of food, from seafood to curry, and from sushi to barbeque. Though I am a picky gourmet, the snacks and local products in Taiwan can make me satisfied. What’s more, the price of the food is very affordable so that you don't have to spend too much money, and the waiters there provide well-rounded service. As a saying goes, “Buildings can be read, the city is lively.” If you have ever been to Taiwan, you will think that "Taiwan touches your heart". In short, I'm local here. And I'm very proud of my hometown. There are lots of big cities in China, and both Beijing and Shanghai are the most famous cities in mainland China. But there are some differences between them. There are so many things I adore about Beijing. The first one is its long history. Beijing is an ancient city. Owing to the fact that it was one of the four great ancient capitals of China, it is a place full of history as well as historical sites, which makes it so special to me. Just take a look at the imperial palaces and the ancient gardens, you'll be amazed at the skills of the people in the past. As the capital of China, Beijing is the centre of politics and international communication. Furthermore, I hate rough it and very afraid of living in hot weather, I can’t survive without air conditioning, so I think this city suits me. At last, there are many good career opportunities in my field, I hope to find a decent job here in the future. When it comes to Shanghai, Shanghai is not only heading towards an iconic city of China but also a symbol of modernity in China. It is the centre of science, economy, and finance, so there are numerous international companies choose Shanghai as their headquarter location. There are lots of tall buildings and modern shopping malls here, where full of designer shops and famous brand shops and each store are unique. It's much more enjoyable to go shopping here. Shanghai is a modern city with wonderful tourist attractions. Meanwhile, as more people swarm into the city, the housing prices and living expenses are increasing sharply. However, Because of the TV series which I watched when I was a kid, it impresses me, so I have a special feeling for Shanghai.

(Please correct me)What are your spare time interests? I like to spend time both hanging out with my friends and staying at home on my own. When I'm really tired and need to chill out, I prefer to stay at home alone. I cook food and eat them while surfing the internet However, I also enjoy spending time with my best friends, because we understand each other and have similar interests so that we have a lot of fun together. Once outside in a healthy environment, my choice of activities is limitless. The outdoors offer a great opportunity to spend free time alone or with friends. When I have leisure time, I look forward to spending it outsides . I like riding a bicycle and try a new cycle track to explore new parts of the city on the weekends. Sometimes I just like to feel the breeze on my face and savour its coolness. Breathing fresh air and enjoying the natural light of sunshine is a nice break. Besides, the wonderful landscape helps me get rid of tiredness. It gives me a sense of freedom from the stress of my study and work. Furthermore, the outdoors is a great place to meet and make friend with other like-minded people who are interested in fitness. Recently, I also met someone on a riding trail. It brings a lot of pleasure and passion in my life.

(Please correct me)Describe a person you admire. I'm not keen on chasing stars. At first, I usually don't pay much attention to the star news in the entertainment industry, and I don't have many idols to worship, so I didn't know what to say about this topic, but then I thought of a person who is an entrepreneur and a business leader. Perhaps you have known him, Jack Ma. Jack has actually been on the cover of Time magazine. He is one of the richest and most famous people in China. He founded "Alibaba", a China-based business-to-business marketplace site, and "Taobao" website which enables small Chinese businessmen to reach out to the global market so that indirectly create many job opportunities. Besides, he created "Alipay, makes China's mobile payment more complete than other countries. However, what I admire the most is not his business acumen, but his dedication and enthusiasm for the public welfare. His story could be described as one "from rags to riches". He comes from quite a poor background and failed the college entrance exam several times, but he was always tenacious and has worked incredibly hard to achieve his dream. I especially admire one of his famous quotes: "Today is cruel. Tomorrow will be worse, but the day after tomorrow will be beautiful." What’s more, he not only invested the money he earned into many charitable projects but also combined the "Alipay" with various welfare projects. For example: in the "Ant Forest" on "Alipay", You can donate daily transfer consumption records, and in the "sports", you can donate your daily walking carbon footprint, so that "Alipay" users can participate in environmental protection and welfare activities, regardless of rich or poor, even though a poor student. In Ma Yun, I have not only seen a story of a poor person striving for competition, but also the kindness that encourages everyone to take environmental protection and welfare activities. I learn his hard work spirit, hope that one day I am able to contribute to society like him.

(Please correct me)What do you think about taking a gap year before being a gradation student? Why? This is a good question. When it comes to taking a gap year, there are many positive as well as negative opinions. Some people think that taking a gap year could enrich one’s experience or help to determine their ideal job in the future. However, some people worry that students deter the continuation of their education. In my opinion, I agree that taking a gap year before being a gradation student. Sometimes, students take a gap year in order to get some special experience which could not get from schools, including taking part in an internship, a doing part-time job, travelling, involves in cultural exchange, and so on. For me, I take a job to earn my tuition and living expenses in my gap year. At the same time, I also taking some online lessons and find exchange language partner on the internet to improve my English ability. My study has not been interrupted by taking a gap year. On the contrary. I find out what I am lack and needed to be enriched when I come back to school. What’s more. It actually helps me to achieve a growth in maturity to broaden my horizon, so that I could better prepare from higher education. Those are the reasons why I agree with taking a gap year before pursuing further education.

(Please correct me)Which is more important, personal experience or suggestions from others? I always get advice from family and friends, when I have some problems, I always ask them for suggestions. Apart asides, I think learning through personal experience is more important, including study as well as work experience. First of all, when I have problems or get into a dilemma, I am the person who is familiar with what I really want and it will promote me to develop the ability to solve problems. In addition, more personal experience will make one more mature and capable, I can have a better understanding of the society in a comprehensive and objective way. When it comes to criticism and mistakes, I can handle criticism and accept mistakes from personal experience. My advantage is that I always welcome feedback on my study or work. Sometimes I failed in my plans or doing something wrong, but I think that the true failure is making a mistake but not learning anything from it, so each time I would like to know and learn from them instead of escaping. So that criticism and mistakes provide me with great opportunities to correct and improve myself. I think it is the most important thing to learn and grow from personal experience.

(Please correct me)What do you expect to achieve if you are enrolled into this university? (Please correct me)What do you expect to achieve during your study if you are enrolled into this university? I think a postgraduate student should bear some qualification, or I can say it is some social responsibilities for students. First of all, the most important social responsibility for students is to play the primary role in studying, we ought to concentrate on what we are studying and try our best to make some achievements in this field in the future. So in my spare time, I like to read, when I see some problems, I will look up through the internet or ask teachers or classmates, I think it is a good study habit. Furthermore, we should enrich our experience, besides taking classes, we are supposed to make reasonable arrangements to take internships, join campus activities, attend academic conferences, and so on. What’s more, we should keep both physical and mental health to reduce the burden of social care, so regular excise routine is essential. At least, learning to help others is also an important social responsibility for everyone, if time permitting, I will take part in some volunteer activities to help those poor, especially poor students, like charity sale, teaching poor children, I think education is the best way out of poverty. I hope to do my best to help people who have the opportunity to escape poverty in the future.

(Please correct me)How do you stay in touching with your family? My hometown is in XX. All my family members are living there. Since I went to high school which commuting time was almost 3 hours, I lived in a school dormitory and started my dormitory life. Maybe someone thinks it was too early to leave home, but I think it trains me to be independent and resolve by myself. Later, because both the undergraduate and graduate schools were in Taipei, I have lived in Taipei for now. I have some social media profile, such as Facebook. WeChat, Line and so forth, I always use a smart phone to communicate with my family. I think the most useful and influenced technology is a smart phone, it lets people always get in touch with each other, no matter how distant is, besides that, the network is essential for people in modern society. Because now mobile phones have such good cameras, I often take pictures and keep them on my computer and smart phone, It's so convenient nowadays. if I see something around my life I want to share with my family, I always take pictures, text some words to express my thoughts, and then post them to social media sites, including new information, interesting news and so forth, even to a small thing. That way all my family and relatives can see them. Besides, I am very happy to see someone to like or comment my posts on Facebook or comment my memory on the WeChat. It’s my favourite way to stay in touching with my family. Even though we are not always living together and can’t often meet, but we trace each other’s life so that it seems like we always accompany with people we care about.
