Autobiography-Final

Family Background

My name is Pin-Ting Chen.  I was born and raised in an ordinary family composed of five members.  My father operates a printing factory; he works hard around the clock to support my family.  My mother is a secretary in a trade company; apart from her job, she also has to deal with lots of  housework.  My two sisters are both students.  My parents teach us to be diligent and honest; moreover, they want us to plan our life thoroughly because they consider that we should be responsible for ourselves.  Both of my parents are righteous and they influence me in many aspects.  I am grateful for my family very much.

School Life

I am studying at Department of Applied Foreign Language in National Tainan Commercial Vocational Senior High School (NTCVS).  I have been interested in English since I was a junior high school student and consequently, I decided to enter this department.  My performance in English has been not bad and I passed General English Proficiency Test (GEPT) for the elementary level when I was a ninth grader.  As an English major, I spend a lot of time studying English in order to improve my ability.  My teachers also provide me with great help.  I always pay attention to my teachers’ lectures and take notes of key points and review what I write down after class.  In addition to the textbooks, I read English magazines as well as other vocabulary and phrase books to enrich my content.  As a result, I have made a lot of progress in these two years and I took the test of intermediate level of GEPT and passed the listening and reading part.  Aside from English, I am similarly interested in Japanese and I studied it on my own for about three years.  As a result, I also enjoyed the Japanese club in second grade.  Moreover, I volunteered to serve as the practice section chief when I was a freshman.  I had to remind my classmates when the examinations were and was in charge of collecting registration fee.   Since I had never assumed such a position, I really learned a lot from this experience.  Not only did I grasp the concept of responsibility but I also learned how to deal with my tasks efficiently.  As for my classmates, they were all freindly and passionate.  Whenever we took part in a game or event, we always cooperated with one another to do our best; when we encountered difficulties, we similarly tried to come up with solutions that could satisfy everyone.  I am glad to be able to study and share my school life with them.

I am a hard-working and diligent person who is willing to learn everything.  Whenever I find something I don’t know very well, I make effort to understand it, and I have strong desire to explore everything I am curious about.  I have been interested in language for many years.  I have started learning English since elementary school and I also started learning Japanese for about three years.  Although I haven’t mastered both these two languages very well, I will constantly sharpen my ability.  Aside from language, I like reading and music as well.  I always make use of my free time to read novels of my favorite authors.  In addition, I have been learning piano since I was little, so I also practice playing piano.  Playing piano helps me feel relaxed and develop appreciation of classical music.

I deal with things with patience and carefulness lest I should make mistakes; as a result, I am often praised for my caution. Once I make up my mind to do something, I do my utmost to achieve my goals and never give up easily.  I hope that I can take advantage of my time to the full; therefore I manage to minimize the waste of time on doing things which won’t do me good.

My motto is:＂There is nothing you can’t succeed as long as you try to make it; there is nothing you can succeed without trying, either.”  I believe in this saying and keep it in mind all the time.  It encourages me to face challenges and obstacles positively.

 

Future-Perspectives

 

In the future, I will continue majoring in English, as I have been more and more interested in English since I entered senior high school.    Taking a variety of English-related courses, I find that my competence in English still leaves something to be desired.  In order to be more proficient in English, I think I must spend more time practicing English speaking, writing, listening and reading. Therefore, I am resolved to sharpen my ability in my college days.  I am longing to be admitted to National Taiwan University of Science and Technology because the curriculum your university provides can help me achieve my goal.  I hope to get more certificates and take professional courses to make myself a competent person and be able to talk in English like a native speaker.  In addition, I would like to participate in all sorts of activities so that I can broaden my horizon and enrich my school life.

autobiography-sample two

  I am Lin. Sophia is my English name. I am 18 years old, studying in a public girls’ high school. I come from a very happy middle class family. My father works in a bank and my mother works in a bookstore. I am not the so-called spoiled child. My parents make very sure of that by training me to be independent.

Throughout my academic career I have not only gotten good grades but also been very active on sport field and have involved in various societies. I play volleyball and enjoy the team spirit we have. I have joined the drama club and participated in many English speech contests. I really enjoy participating in school activities. I not only made many friends, but also gained many different valuable experiences.

I have been the class English tutor for almost three years. I like to discuss and share the experience of learning English with people a lot. We often read “China Post” and ”Time Magazine” and discuss the content, the word usage and practice speaking English by discussing the articles we have read. At the beginning we found it was quiet hard because we could rarely understand the content but we encouraged each other not to give up. Gradually we had made improvement, we were so excited by it that the group discussion of English books and magazines became one of the most enjoyable things for us every week. I have won the first prize of school English speech contest in second year of high school and many of my English speech contests in my second year of high school and many of my English articles were put on “Students Post.”

My fondness for English is developed from my childhood. It’s lonely to be the only child. I had no one to play with when I was a kid. My mom knew this so she took me with her all the time. Hence bookstores became my playground and books have been my playmates since I was young. My mom would show me those fancy books with cute illustrations on it. Firstly I was drawn by the pictures and then I was curious about these strange symbols called words. That was my first contact with English. As I was interested what those symbol meant, my parents taught me a bit. As they felt that I was eager to learn, they found me an English tutor. Thanks to my parents got the advantage of learning English by starting it at really early age.

My interest in English brought me to the world of English literature. I have been enchanted by this creative world since then, so I decide to major in English literature. My aim is to explore the world of literature and the world of great writers, to open my eyes and cultivate my mind through this great world of literature.

Besides English literature, I also have a wide range of hobbies. I love reading, Writing, music and movies. I have my active side as well, I enjoy swimming, hiking, raveling and going to the nature a lot. I believe we must have balance in our lives, As to my personality. I am creative, optimistic, determined, willing to help others and down to earth.
I want to be one of the literature students who have the privilege of studying great writers’ work and exploring their inner world, their outlook of life and their role as learned scholars and their influence on the world. I can also do little contribution to awaking the awareness of culture and literature in our society since its importance has been neglected by us.

autobiography-sample one

 My name is Yang. I am 17 years old. My English name is Wendy. There are seven people in my family, and I am the second child among five. My father is the undertaker of a factory and my mother is a housewife. My sister is a university student, while my younger sisters and brothers are junior high school students. Luckily, I have a happy family with open-minded parents and have a life with affluent materials.

Since I was a kindergarten student, I enjoyed singing and dancing very much. Usually, I volunteered to perform in front of the class. I remember then, I liked to watch variety shows, and that’s how I learned to sing popular songs. Those singers and actors who perform in TV programs are my idols. Every time we hold the birthday celebration for my grandparents, it is me who have to imitate the singers in front of the relatives to amuse them. I felt entertaining people is such a great enjoyment.

Throughout my school time, I have been a regular student in study, but have excellent performance on various activities. Speech, painting, singing contests are my battlefield and the place for me to win my honor. Besides, I have wide range of hobbies. I enjoy reading novels, seeing movies, swimming, mountain hiking, roller-staking and overseas traveling. Also I join the badminton and drama clubs. I spend most of my time in the drama club after school, for every one of our club members has to undertake the role of both the performer and the staff. There are so many works to be done before a play is ready and all of our club members have to contribute ourselves what we are good at. While working with those vigorous and creative fellows I never feel tired or bored.

This summer, my drama club produces a play called ”Aladdin” as our graduation ceremony show. I played Aladdin’s mother, a comic role in the play with greedy and sarcastic characteristics. Because it was a musical, all the actors had to sing and dance at the same time. And thanks to the professional teachers who volunteered to instruct us, we even did the chorus during the play, which was a quartet with fantastic dancing. During the holidays we came to school doing rehearsals and made the costume and by this creative stage world that I stared to think very seriously that whether it was a dream for me to pursuit. My parents tell me to do what I want but not what I am expected to and this is why I decided to apply myself to the drama department.
I want to become a stage actress as other companies who have the same ideal.

To me, a play not only can offer people entertainment, but also in many times, it can provide people a different point of view toward lives. Compare to those with full trained skill, who come from a professional school, maybe I am far too idealistic and naive. I know nothing is easy and I think to be a drama department student would be a big challenge. I have learned a line from my English teacher that is, ”Not until you give it a try will you know the result.” I got passion and expectation to myself, wish you would give me a opportunity to make my dream come true.

 In my opinion, it is good to meet people through online dating sites.  One of my reasons is that we can meet people all over the world.  Through the Internet, we can get in touch with people from many different countries while in real life we are not able to meet and talk with foreigners.  In addition, people who are shy may feel easier to chat through the Internet because he/she doesn't need to be face to face with others.  Sometimes it's simpler to make friends on the Net since we don't have to get along with those we know through the Net actually.  And the last thing is that people who have the same interest can get together more easily on the Internet.  Online dating sites often divide their members into different categories according to their hobbies or jobs.  If we take advantage of these dating sites in a right way, it will be safe and interesting to meet people through online dating sites.

Michael Williams opened a small music store selling compact discs on September 5, but he soon closed his shop.  After reading its description, I think I know why Mr. Williams failed.  First of all, the location of his store was not good.  It was outside of town and unfortunately, there were two large music stores in the shopping center which is 3 miles away from it.  Most people would go to the shopping center and just buy CDs at those two large music stores instead of Mr. Williams’.  Another account was the type of the CDs he sold.  Most of them were hip-hop and rock, which were popular with young people.  However, the majority of the residents in this region were middle-aged or old.  In addition, the shop was opened Monday to Friday from 1 to 5 p.m., but the time when people would walk past the store was 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 6 p.m. to 12 a.m.  And that Mr. Williams would not accept checks or credit cards was also a problem.  Some of the customers might consider it inconvenient and decide not to buy CD if they didn’t have enough money on hand.  The statement above is my opinion on Mr. Williams’ failure in operating his music store and I feel sorry for him.

I decide to go to an English-speaking country, and this decision may have some effects on my life.  For one thing, I may encounter language obstacles and culture shock.  Though I have been learning English for a very long time, I still have many problems in listening, speaking and writing.  As a result, it may be difficult for me to communicate with others.  As for culture shock, there are a lot of differences between the East and the West, and therefore, it may take me a long time to be accustomed.  Moreover, I may get homesick.  After moving to a foreign country, I may soon feel like returning Taiwan if I can’t blend into the new environment.  In addition, I have to change my lifestyle.  It may be fun and I can enjoy different form of life.  Although I cannot predict how it would be like after I move to an English-speaking country, I’m still looking forward to it.

Acton is a small town in the Midwest.  It has a population of 2,500.  Now, Stanley Manufacturing decides to open a large factory in Acton.  As a resident in Acton, I think it may cause some negative results.  The first one is pollution.  The factory will lead to environmental pollution as it starts operating.  Water and air will be dirty.  Another problem is that the opening of the new factory will bring many new people to the community, and these people may make the town different.  Acton is a safe, clean, and quiet place, but the new migrators may make the town a noisy and bustling one.  Last but not least, as more and more people move into the small town, living space will be insufficient.  House price may rise rapidly and people may not have  enough money to buy a house.  Such is why I consider it bad that a big factory opens in Acton.

 decide to major in English and the followings are my reasons.  For one thing, English has been an international language.  People all over the world learn and use it; likewise, in Taiwan, almost everyone learns English.  Another reason is that when I apply for a job, mastering English can be my advantage.  That is, if I’m good at English, I may be more likely to get a job.  Last, I want to travel around the world.  Since I am unlikely to be able to speak every foreign language, it is useful to speak English fluently.  Even if I can’t speak the local language of the country I go to, I can still communicate with people in English.  Such are why I decide to major in English and I think my decision is right.

I support that students wear uniform for school.  First of all, I think it is not troublesome since students don't have to worry about what to wear.  Some students may spend too much time thinking about their dressing, so if everyone wears uniform, they don't have to waste time worrying about it.  Moreover, teachers and school guards can identify the students easily.  If students wear their own clothes, it may be difficult to tell them from strangers and the security in the school may be threatened.  Last, wearing uniform can boost a sense of belonging to the school.  Students may feel closer to one another when they wear the same uniform.  According to the statement above, I think it's good for students to wear uniform.

  I have had two teachers, Ms.Lin and Ms.Wu,  when I was an elementary school student.  These two teachers were similar in several ways.  For one thing,  they were both female and single, and in addition, they were both kind.  Ms. Wu was patient and careful, and so was Ms. Lin.  Moreover, Ms.Lin as well as Ms. Wu was an English teacher.  Besides, Ms. Wu worked hard.  Likewise, Ms. Lin worked hard.  They not only taught us contents in the textbook but also exposed us to some useful knowledge.  Last, it was fun to attend these two teachers' classes because both of them let students learn English by playing some games.
  I think Ms. Wu as well as Ms. Lin was really great teacher and that they influenced me so much.

  John Adams and Thomas Jefferson share many similarities.  First of all, they were both important people in the American Revolution.  Besides, both of them were delegates to the Continental Congress.  In addition, John Adams as well as Thomas Jefferson studied and practiced law.  John Adams was a signer of  Declaration of Independence; likewise, Thomas Jefferson was also a signer of Declaration of Independence.  And their last similarity is that they both died on July 4, 1826.  According to the statement above, we can find that these two men are really alike.

  There is information about two apartments, Fairfax Apartments and CAMPUS APTS.  They have some differences, and I prefer Fairfax Apartments.  For one thing, Fairfax Apartments has two large bedrooms while CAMPUS APTS has only one bedroom.  Moreover, the rooms of Fairfax Apartments are air conditioned while the room of CAMPUS APTS is not.
  Although the rent of Fairfax Apartments is more expansive and it doesn't alllow pets, I will still choose Fairfax Apartments because I think it's suitable for me.

 I decide to major in English and the followings are my reason.  For one thing, English has been an international language.  People all over world learn and use it; likewise, in Taiwan, most everyone learn English.  Another reason is that when I apply for a job, mastering English can be my advantage.  That is, if I’m good at English, I may be more likely to get a job.  Last, I want to travel around the world.  Since that I am unlikely to be able to speak every foreign language, it is useful to speak English fluently.  Even if I can’t speak the local language of the country I go, I can still communicate with people in English.  Such were why I decide to major in English and I think my decision is right.

Expressin an opinion-2

  I support that students wear uniform for school.  First of all, I think it is not troublesome since students don’t have to worry about what to wear.  Some students may spend too much time thinking about their dressing, so if everyone wears uniform, they don’t have to waste time worrying about it.  Moreover, teachers and school guards can identify the students easily.  If students wear their own clothes, it may be difficult to tell them from strangers and the security in the school may be threatened.  Last, wearing uniform can boost a sense of belonging to the school.  Students may feel closer to one another when they wear the same uniform.  According to the statement above, I think it’s good for students to wear uniform.

Expressin an opinion-1

  In my opinion, it is good for people to meet people through online dating sites.  One of my reasons is that we can meet people all over the world.  Through the Internet, we can get in touch with people from many different countries while in real life we are not able to meet and talk with foreigners.  In addition, people who are shy may feel easier to chat through the Internet because he/she doesn’t need to be face to face with others.  Sometimes it’s simpler to make friend on the Net since we don’t have to get along with those we know through the Net actually.  And the last thing is that people who have the same interest can get together more easily on the Internet.  Online dating sites often divide their members into different categories according to their hobbies or jobs.  If we take advantage of these dating sites in a right way, it will be safe and interesting to meet people through online dating sites.

Contrasting-2

There are two people applying for the position as an English instructor.  One of them is Lynn Whitnall and the other is Debra Fines.  If I was the human resource manager, I will accept the applicationfrom Debra Fines for several reasons.  First, Debra has mare education than Lynn.  Debra has gone to three universityies while Lynn has gone to one.  Besides,   Debra also has more employment experiences than Lynn.  She has had worked as a consultant and author,  an instructer and a teaching assistant and so on.Though unlike Lynn, Debra doesnt's speak Spanish and Japanese, she is fluent in French.  And in addition, Debra has publication whereas Lynn doesn't.  According to the statemaent above,  Debra seems to be the better choice for this job.

Contrasting-1

  There is information about two apartments, Fairfax Apartments and CAMPUS APTS.  They have some differences, and I prefer Fairfax Apartments.  For one thing, Fairfax Apartments has two large bedrooms while CAMPUS APTS has only one bedroom.  Moreover, though they are both near campus and furnished,  the rooms of Fairfax Apartments are air conditioned while the room of CAMPUS APTS is not.
  Although the rent of Fairfax Apartments is more expansive and it doesn't alllow pets, I will still choose Fairfax Apartments because I think it's suitable for me.

Comparing-3--Two teachers I have had

  I have had two teachers, Ms.Lin and Ms.Wu,  when I was an elementary school student.  These two teachers were similar in several ways.  For one thing,  they were both female and single, and in addtion, they were both kind.  Ms. wu was patient and careful, and so was Ms. Lin.  Moreover, Ms.Lin as well as Ms. Wu was an English teacher.  Besides, Ms. Wu worked hard.  Likewise, Ms. Lin worked hard, too.  They not only taught us contents in the textbook but also exposed us to some useful knowledge.  Last, it was fun to attend these two teachers' classes because both of them let students learn English by playing some games.
  I think Ms. Wu as well as Ms. Lin was really great teacher and that they influenced me so much.

My Favorite Holiday-revised

There are many holidays in a year, among which I like Chinese New Year most.  For one thing, I can have several days off.  Since I don't have to go to school, I need not worry about my assignments.  For another thing, I can receive red envelopes.  I always make good use of the money I receive.  I save half of it and use the rest to buy what I need.  In addition, I can have a reunion with my family and relatives.  We can have a big dinner and play games together.  Besides, I can have a good time with the cousins whom I cannot meet very often.  From what I have said above, I think Chinese New Year is a pleasant holiday and I really like it very much.

The most embarrasing moment revised1

When I was a junior high school student, I once took part in a relay race at my school’s athletic meet.  I really wanted to win the championship so I took the race very seriously.  I not only practiced hard but asked my classmates to do their best.  As long as I wasn't satisfyied with their performance, I would scold them strictly during our practice.  Finally, the athletic meet day came and soon the relay race began.  At first, our team ran very well and was in the lead.  When it was my turn, I also ran very fast; however, when I was close to the next runner, I suddenly slipped.  My mistake made our team lose the competition in the end.  I felt extremely embarrassed when I saw my classmates’ depressed expression and it was really an unforgettable experience.

The movie I have watched revised 1

I once watched a movie, which was about four children.  Their mother gave birth to them but she didn’t get married.  So she didn’t let anyone know her children’s presence.  They lived in a small apartment and stayed at home all day instead of going to school when their mother was working.  One day, they got up and found that their mother had gone with some money left.  They believed that she would come back soon, so they waited patiently.  However, she didn’t come back after a long time, and the children were gradually running out of money.  Another day, the eldest son called their mother up only to find that she had got married.  Their house became mess and dirty, moreover, water and electronic was cut off because they couldn’t pay the rent.  With time passing by, they began feeling hopeless and worried, however, as no one knew them, they couldn’t get any help.  Aferward, the youngest sister fell down when she was playing alone and died.  Not knowing what to do, his brother could only bury her secretly with a girl they met in a park.  It was a sad story and I think what the children faced was very impressive.
