Changes in Life

There have been many changes in my life. With the development of the economy, my life is better off. For clothing, I have spare money to buy sorts of pretty clothes. But in the past, there were fewer clothes in my wardrobe. For food, I usually had traditional Chinese food for every meal, rice, noodles or a steamed bun with one or two light dishes such as preserved pickles. Nowadays, I can afford any delicious food, including western foods. For housing, I have moved from a cramped and gloomy room to a big and bright flat. For getting around, I rode an old bike on my way to work a year ago. At present, I drive my private car to travel. I believe my life will be better and better in the future.

How to Keep Healthy

Nowadays more and more people the importance of keeping healthy. Without a healthy body, they can do nothing. For me, there are three main ways to keep healthy. First, it is necessary to keep a balanced diet, which is the basis of good health. It is better for us to have more fruits and vegetables every day. Second, it is important to take regular exercise, such as swimming, jogging and so on. Third, it is essential to stay in a good mood. If people follow these three ways of keeping fit, they’ll greatly improve their health.

My TV University Life

Our university is mainly engaged in long distance education. The form of study is very convenient for adult learners like me. I can learn my courses anywhere in my spare time by computer. There are many web-based courses and sources on line. Moreover, I not only use e-mail to send our homework to our tutors but also join online discussion forums. Meantime, the difficulties and

puzzles can be solved in the tutorial once a week. The e-learning life is meaningful and demanding. I enjoy my TV university life.

My Home

My home is a newly-built house in the north of the city. We have three rooms in addition to the kitchen and bathroom. The first room is the main room or living room. It is for having meals, relaxing, reading, watching television and so on. It is the busiest room in the house. The second room is my daughter’s bedroom. She sleeps and dresses there. The third room belongs to my wife and me. It seems quite spacious because we have little furniture. We sleep, prepare lessons and generally relax there. I think my home is cozy and I like my home.

Dear Mary,

Thank you for telling me about yourself. I’d like to let you know more about me too.

As a child, I wanted to be a detective. I thought a detective was really great because he could solve criminal cases to do justice. But my dream never came true. I’m now a librarian, dealing with books every day. The work is nothing thrilling, but I like it. Since there are more and more electronic materials, I hope that we will have an e-library built soon.

Looking forward to hearing from you again.

Best wishes,

Ian

My Ideal Job

Everybody has his dream for his career in the future. He or she might want to be a teacher, a doctor, a scientist, a sportsman and so on. To tell you the truth, my ideal job is in business. The idea came into being when I was a child.

With the development of market economy, there are many prosperous opportunities in business. I like reading stories about some successful

businessmen such as Bill Gates, Li Jiacheng, etc. I believe I will be a man like them some day.

Now, I am majoring in Computering. I must study hard to get myself qualified for my future job.

My Favorite Means of Transportation

In a modern society, there are many means of transportation, such as subway, taxi, bus and so on. But my favorite means of transportation is by bike.

First, riding a bike is good for keeping healthy. I spend one hour riding a bike to my office on my working day, and I think it is a good form of physical exercise. Secondly, it is money-saving. Recently, the private car drivers always complain the price of gas is higher and higher, but if you ride a bike, it will cost you nothing. Thirdly, it is beneficial for protecting the environment, so it is a “green” form of transportation.

Therefore, although it has some disadvantages, I like riding a bike best.

My Favorite TV Program

CCTV today offers a great variety of programs to meet different needs and

tastes. For example, the weather forecast, serials, films, sports and so on. My favorite TV program, however, is the news.

There are several points that are worth mentioning. For one thing, it covers news about important events both at home and abroad. Besides, the news it provides is timely and reliable. Finally, it broadcasts in the evening during the so-called “golden time”. It saves me much time reading through newspapers for current affairs.

In short, watching the news on CCTV has become part of my daily life.

My Hobbies

Hobbies are activities from which one can benefit a lot. In my spare time, I like painting, singing, raising flowers and cycling. My hobbies help me relax after periods of hard work. Moreover, I can make many friends who share the same hobbies with me. My hobbies make me maintain a mental and physical balance. As you can see, hobbies can be relaxing, challenging, interesting, enjoyable or educational. So everyone should have one or two hobbies.

Living in a Big City

In the eyes of many people, city life is attractive with all its advantages and conveniences. People can buy almost all kinds of things at supermarkets or shopping malls, dine out in good restaurants; and more important, they can have more educational opportunities. However, with the expansion of the city, more and more people are flowing into the big city. Now the traffic is heavier and heavier.

The pollution problem is getting more and more serious. The living condition is worse and worse. Most people love the advantages of the city life, but a big city also has its disadvantages.
