    People now can better protect the environment than they could in the past？ As the air condition deteriorates day by day, people begin to think about how to protect the environment and lead more environmentally-friendly lives. Some people believe that with improving science and technology, people today can protect the environment better than they could in the past. However, I personally believe that although advanced technologies can help to preserve environment to some extent, they may even bring more adverse effects than those positive counterparts. Firstly, the total population among the world is growing rapidly. More people means larger energy requirement, and larger energy requirement directly leads to more pollution, rapid increase on arable land and decrease on natural vegetation. Forests, with large amount of trees which can absorb carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen, serve as natural environment protector. However, because of the rapid growth of the need of arable land and human inhabited regions, human begins to wreck havoc on natural forests to provide enough space. Besides, the change of climate has caused many species go extinct, which puts a great stain on biodiversity. Gradually, the equilibrium of ecosystem will be damaged and then cause even further chain reaction to destroy environment. Secondly, nowadays the society is more prosperous with increasingly need of communication and transportation. In order to pursue higher efficiency, people tend to choose faster transportation methods such as airplanes or trains. Even in daily life people tend to go out by car instead of on foot. This kind of lifestyle will definitely lead to more exhaust fumes and air pollution. Moreover, even the renewable energy technologies have their own adverse effects to environment. For example, Chernobyl nuclear accident is still influencing the lives of surrounding animals and human beings even after so many years. Commercial wind turbines have huge noise which may kill some small animals such as birds. To sum up, although there are many technologies nowadays that can help to protect environment, whether those technologies have more positive or negative impacts is yet not determined. Moreover, because of the rapid growth of population and prosperity of current society, it is harder to protect environment today than in the past.

    我申请在中国学习一学期太极拳的孔子学院奖学金_第二部分

    This year I passed the HSK 4. However, in order to understand what Chinese people write, what they say, etc, this level is not enough. I  continue to study new words, read, listen, speak, in Chinese. The motivation I receive from my teacher in the Confucious Institute in Barcelona is very big. So is the help of my Chinese friend in Spain. I really hope that in the future I can speak much better chinese than now. If I have the chance to live in China for one semester, I am sure I can achieve it.
    今年我通过了HSK 4 <font style="background-color: yellow;">考试</font>. 但是, 为了看得懂中国人写的<font style="background-color: yellow;">什么</font>, 听得懂他们说什么<font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>等</strike></font>,这个水平不够. 我<font style="background-color: yellow;">会</font>继续学习生词, 阅读, 听力, 口语. 在巴塞罗那孔子学院老师<font style="background-color: yellow;">给了我很多鼓励</font>. 我中国朋友帮助也很大. 我很希望将来我<font style="background-color: yellow;">能够</font>说一口好<font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>多</strike></font>一点儿的中文<font style="background-color: yellow;">（我的中文能够说得更好）.</font> 如果我能在中国生活一个学期, 这个目的地我一定能达到<font style="background-color: yellow;">（我一定能够达到这个目的</font>）.(Actually, 目标 is better here if you want to express 'goal'. 目的 more or less has negative meaning. Similar as 'purpose' in English)
    The movements inTaiqi look to me very beautiful. Long time ago I tried it. I remember my Spanish teacher of Taiqi was not very patient with his students. My believe is that his knowledge of Taiqi was just so so. Soon after I gave up the learning of Taiqi. 25 years later, there are still few people who practice Taiqi in Spain. Teachers of Taiqi even fewer. I would really like to learn Taiqi. Back in Spain I could teach it to others as a voluntary teacher, during weekends. For example, where I live, there are public facilities where some people teach others painting, drawing, singing, etc. These are activites related to art and culture. These activities are normally free, or only a small fee is required. I am sure that if Taiqi was taught the same way, it would be highly popular.
    太极拳的动作看上去很美. 我很久以前打过一点. 我记得我的西班牙太极拳<font style="background-color: yellow;">的</font>老师不耐烦, <font style="background-color: yellow;">但是</font>知识<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">也</font></strike>还可以. <font style="background-color: yellow;">不过</font>我早就放弃了. <font style="background-color: yellow;">大概</font>二十五<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">左右</font></strike>年以后会打太极拳的西班牙人还是不多. 会教<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">打</font></strike>太极拳的西班牙人更少. 我很想在中国<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">好</font></strike>学习<font style="background-color: yellow;">好</font>太极拳, 回<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">来</font></strike>西班牙后我周末要教别人. 比如说, 在我的地区有些人自愿教别人画画, 唱歌, <font style="background-color: yellow;"><strike>根</strike>等等跟</font>文化, 艺术有关的活动. 这些活动一般都是免费的或者得交小费. 在那儿<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">资源</font></strike>教太极拳一定<strike><font style="background-color: yellow;">收到</font></strike>很<font style="background-color: yellow;">受</font>欢迎!.

    Dear David,

    Your Chinese is actually pretty good. Although there are some minor problems in grammar and vocabulary, I have no difficulty in understanding what you want to express.

    Best wishes.

    Irene

    As David Wang said, 评估(assess?) = 评价(evaluation)+估计(estimation). Here is an example: 请你评估一下这个项目的风险。(Please assess the risk of this program) My English is not so good, so you can regard the English translation as reference.

    Things happened today Today is the Good Friday Holiday, so I have no class. I stayed in my dorm all day looking for study resources for TOEFL. Late in the afternoon my friend took some duck meat to me which was really spicy and tasty. He bought the duck meat from a very famous brand in mainland China. I am now studying in HK and it is hard for me to find any spicy food here. I shared those food to my friends and they all liked to eat it. I really miss the feeling when I was eating Chinese spicy hotpot. Anyway, I had a very good day today.
