- Coldplay is really a good band. Frankly speaking, I knew nothing about this band until last month, they held a concert in Taiwan. Many of my friends were crazy for that, so, curiously, I went to listen to their songs. It's fantastic. Especially, I want to talk about the song - "vive la vida." This song's title is in Spanish, I guess. It means "life is wonderful," if we translate it directly. Opening with a series of fast drum beats, it has a clear tempo and makes me want to dance. I think it wants to express that an army is marching, just as our lives are moving and moving and moving forward. I like this piece of lyrics: "I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing. Roman cavalry choirs are singing." It gives me a sense of everything is changing. Every man or woman is going from this state to that state, leaving from this station to that station. Bell rings, then a year passes. Life is short and we need to do what we truly want to do. People grow up, study, find a job, marry, and die. We need to take every opportunity, or, it will not appear again. So I can try my best or focus on my work when I listen to this song. Have a nice day:) Thank you for any correction.
July 11, 201721 - AI is not a threat to human being In this era of Artificial Intelligence, big data and cloud server become the hottest words. However, some people are afraid of developing AI. They believe that scientists are creating "Skynet", and robots are going to govern the world. Based on my observations, I want to stand up for the research in AI. Whenever our ancestors overcome their dread of fire, they could have a cooked meal. Whenever people embrace electricity, our cities could shine as stars at night. Fear is an inhibitor to progress. Whenever we harness the power of AI, our world will be totally different. AI is not a formidable competitor who will reduce our working opportunities. Instead, I think it reminds us that the cognitive and emotional skills are the priceless treasures of the human beings. Besides, it can be our credible helper who always gives us calm and accurate judgements. ==== I want to improve my use of words~ Thanks for any correction!June 21, 201701

0 votedJune 19, 20171- The Sharing Economy Nowadays, more and more people join the so-called "sharing economy". That is to say, they rent something, use it, and return it instead of owning it. While some people argue that laws and rules are not yet prepared to regularize these business behaviors, I've always believed that it's a great idea. Firstly, people can save a lot of money by sharing things. For example, we can call Uber instead of owning a car, and we can share a nice tuxedo instead of purchasing it. Last summer, I wanted to go camping with my friends, but camping equipment is very expensive. Surprisingly, I found someone who had a set of camping equipment. He was willing to share with us at a low price because he didn't need it at that time. As a result, we had a nice trip and saved a lot of money. Secondly, people are willing to try new things because the concept of sharing can reduce the cost of wrong choices. For example, when I was a student, I wanted to use a quadcopter in the final project of a course, but quadcopters are expensive. Besides, I was a beginner and I was not familiar with various kinds of drones, so it's hard to decide which one to buy. In order to make sure I can accomplish my project, I gave up this idea and just wrote a report instead. If I could have found someone who can have shared a quadcopter with me at that time, I could do better. So that's why I stand up for developing the sharing economy. Thanks for any correction!
June 19, 201720 - My favorite comic book is "Attack on Titan" There are many interesting comics, but my favorite one is "Attack on Titan". That's because I believe that life is a struggle, and this comics impressively depicts how people deal with the difficulties in their lives. The story happened in an imaginary world. People dwell in cities behind the protection of three huge walls to save them from Titan - a group of relentless monsters. My favorite scene is when Titan destroyed the first wall, people were all escaping. But a rich businessman put his carriages in front of the gate and no one could escape from that gate. What a selfish person. At this moment, my favorite character- Mikasa - showed up. She was not afraid of the power of the businessman and asked him to remove his carriage with a threat of her knife. I really admire her bravery and her attitude toward difficulties in her life. So that's why I love the comics - "Attack on Titan". Thanks for any correction!
June 16, 201730 - Colleges shouldn't over-emphasize students' language abilities. Generally speaking, we all agree that language ability is very crucial for students, especially for those who want to study abroad. However, if we put too much emphasis on students' language abilities, it'll lead to many painful consequences. Firstly, students who cannot meet the criterion would lose their opportunities to get admission, even they are talented people in their major. For example, one of my friends, Frank, is an intelligent person who is good at Physics. Yet, his English is quite poor. As a result, he cannot go to study at his the college he dreams of. Secondly, if students spend too much time on learning English, they will be distracted from their major subject. For example, my friend, Andy, is a smart student study in Computer Science. However, in order to get a high score on English assessment, he spent almost 3 months to prepare for the test. Therefore, it's difficult for he to return to study the latest techniques in that he hadn't followed these things for a long time. In conclusion, I firmly believe that colleges should allow students just with basic language abilities to study. Thanks for any correction!June 15, 201760
