If I was going to be interviewed as a tour guide, I would say something like this.(part4)
INTERVIEWERS: What do you want to achieve in this industry?
ME: In the future, I don’t want to be just an eloquent tour guide. I have many hobbies, such like as drawing, computer coding and media editing. I wish I could to contribute more innovation to Taiwan’s tourism industry by integrating those of my abilities, to create new ways of experiencing Taiwan’s beauty. For example: when I am carry out a trip, I could give each one of my group members an Ipad or ask them to download certain apps. Through this technology [apps aren't really considered 'gadgets'], I will be able to provide more information during the interpretation tour. There are so many other possibilities I want to share with you, but unfortunately, I can’t because they’re my intellectual property though. However, I hope I can show you one day If I qualify as a tour guide.
Thank you for your listening. I wish you all a good day. and I get good grades0 votedApril 21, 20161Controversial issue
The issue Is about volunteering as a teacher in the poor area.
Someone thinks it is meaningless to the children. If you go there, the only thing you will do is being aware of you can not help the children. that will happen is you will realise that you can not help the children. Generally speaking, volunteers largely consist of college students.Spending one or two weeks to teaching students. The program is too short so it is difficult to make an impact on the children. In other’s opinion, even the time is short. Others also agree that the program is too short. The program offers the children an opportunity to learn more about the world, encouraging them to change their destiny. Most people think it is a meaningful experience.As far as I am concerned ,there is no escaping the fact that the students have accomplished a great achievement: teaching others. Unfortunately it has produced many problems in the process.

Further more, many languages may cause some serious social problems - not only in the traditional countries but also in the countries with many cultures. People who speak a differently language may be isolated and alienated [isolate and alienate are pretty much the same thing] by others who speak the same language. Consequently discrimination possibly raises conflicts, which is detrimental for the union and peace of a country.
In conclusion, I reaffirm that this world would be benefited from using less languages. It not only contributes to the world development and integration, but also to the global harmony and stability. Even though more languages means more cultural diversity, it is a fact that people are gradually abandoning less popular languages for more common ones.0 votedApril 20, 20160Correction part 1
Do fewer languages make life easier or not? (No offensesive, just an essay)
Languages are the most important and effective tools for the human communication. However, the existing number of languages keep decreasing. Some claims that it is not an important issue while because life becomes more convenient with fewer languages. In my opinion, I agree with this view.First of all, the variety of languages impedes the communication between people from different cultures. Translation is no longer a prior solution for solving the communication problems and it is not efficient [not sure what you are trying to say here]. Translation is no longer a desirable solution for solving communication problem as it is not efficient. Using different languages is extremely difficult when exchanging information and doing business in this contemporary age.
Moreover, too many languages play as an impede for people who intend to find certain useful materials and references are searching for certain materials for . The Modern knowledge and techniques are mainly recorded by using the widely spread languages, such as English. For one thing, This is to make searching for specific material convenient, for another, as the information recorded in the mainly used languages can be much more varied compare to any other smaller languages that probably can not provide the exact details.0 votedApril 20, 20162How to know the meaning of a new word?
Recently, I'm reading HarryPotter. This is the first English novel I have read. I have read the series in Chinese as well as watched the movies, saw the whole series of the books in Chinese as well as the movies before so it's easy to understand the plot of each novel(/movie)But I always meet some new words in the novel. At first, I like to look for their meanings, however, the more chapters I read, the more words I don't know. I have even forgotten what I have looked up in the dictionary.
I'm wondering how native English speakers know all of the words, even when they are still young.
Could you please tell me about your experiences learning a new word? Can you help me correct this article as well?Thanks a lot~

As a church member, I always got flowers on Sunday morning. One Sunday, as I was leaving the church, a little boy came over and said," Madam, what are you going to do with the flowers? If you are going to throw them away, can I have them?." The little boy said. "I want to give them to my granny. My mother and my father are very [i think you forgot to write what happened to the boy's parents], they took me to my grandparents' home when I was only two. From then on, I lived with my grandparents. However, my grandfather died last year. Now my grandmother is by herself. She takes care of me very well every day so I want to give her the beautiful flowers as thanks for loving me." When the little boy finished, I could hardly speak. I looked at the boy and said, "Boy, [you could also say "my dear"]Son [usually, 'son' is more commonly used by men], that is the nicest thing I have ever heard."0 votedApril 19, 20161If I am going to be interviewed for a tour guide, I will say something like this.(part2)

INTERVIEWERS: Could you tell me some of your memorable travel experiences?
ME: My grandparents live in 台東. Once when I visited them, we went to 高台 for a picnic.
People always go there during the daytime to watch or go paragliding, but we went there at night to admire the beautiful view of the starry night sky. The sky above 高台 was so clear that you could see every single star is vivid enough to observe without a telescope, and even more, the magnificent Milky Way. We enjoyed the view and a feast of a whole roast chicken that we bought from a famous local restaurant "脫線牧場". Overall, I think it is a tour destination you can’t miss.
ME: I love things related to nature. 花蓮 is the place blessed by nature. My friends and I once traveled there and we rented scooters to get to our destination.
We went to 遠雄海洋公園 Theme Park and used tickets that I had bought on the Taiwanese version of eBay “the Yahoo Auction”, because buying tickets on that website is cheaper than buying it at the theme park. Beside, Buying tickets beforehand could also save us time because we will not have to wait at the theme park to buy them. on waiting for entering.
I've also been to 秀姑巒 river to raft during the daytime and to the fork of 秀姑巒 river to catch crabs and shrimps at night. I've been to 七星 bay to see the sunset and drink bottles of goat’s milk coffee at dusk. When we strolled along the beach, we took (made?) nothing but memories.
But, actually, what made this trip so unique was that one of the group members was my girlfriend. Ha.[You write very well! However, i had some trouble with your tense. The question is asking about something that has happened in the past, so I corrected your writing using past tense. If I haven't understood what you have tried to say, please let me know!]
