D. 地点：

　　1. When you take a trip, do you prefer to just look around, or do you prefer to take pictures and keep a journal on the trip?

　　Well, personally, I prefer to take pictures and keep a journal when traveling. First off, taking photographs to record the sceneries and the people you have met during the trip can be great reminisce of the past.    I can write down my personal thoughts and what I learned about yourself and about the world. Having a record of your travels is going to come in handy when you're senile and your grandkids want to know about your life. Additionally,  Your journal can be a detailed itinerary, so when your friend asks for advice on a place you visited, you can pull out your journal and actually help instead of saying, "it was so long ago, I don't remember!"

　　2. Between the following two places, where would you choose to live?

　　1. big and new place but far from your workplace and/or university

　　2. small and old place but near your workplace and/or university

　　Personally, I'd like to live in a bigger place that is far away from my workplace. Actually, a bigger place far away from my workplace is more likely to be in the suburb than otherwise, and I am the kind of person who like peace and tranquility. I want to get away from the noise and pollution, and I hate the hustle and bustle of the city. Working in the downtown areas all day along is boring, and I want to escape from these concrete jungle and live far away. You know since my workplace is located in the downtown areas, I just want to get away from that place and find somewhere that is far away.

　　3. Some people spend their vacation in one place. Others prefer to spend their vacation visiting several different places and spending a shorter amount of time in each of these places.

　　Which do you prefer and why.  Personally, I would like to travel around in different place instead of just staying in one place. I am the kind of person who likes new and exciting things and exploration. If I stay in one place, I will get extremely bored, you know, the scenery of one place is just repetitive, and there is nothing new. On top of that, by traveling around to different places, I can be exposed to different cultural elements. When traveling around different places, I got a chance to talk to locals and get to know their culture, customs and way of living. By interacting with them I can broaden my horizon and have new perspective on things.

　　E. 人物：

　　1. Which trait of you do your friends like the best? Kindness, cheerfulness, intelligence?

　　Well, I think it is really important for a friend to be cheerful. First off, my life might be very misery since as a college student, I might be overwhelmed with a lot of assignments, like presentations, group projects, and even prepare for exams. With a cheerful friend, they can cheer me up and spread positive energy. Possibly, with their inspiration and encouragement I can keep myself refreshed and passionate about my life and study. Besides, being cheerful can be really contagious and when I am full of positive emotions, I can be more productive in my study.

　　2. Describe a character in a book, film, or poem, explain why you like him or her. Please use specific details.

　　I would like to talk about the main character in movie Forest Gump. Actually, the movie stars Tom hanks. This movies won many Oscar awards and it is regarded as one of the greatest movies of all times. Forest Gump is a simple minded person, and he only got an IQ of 75, which is way below average. Despite of the setback, he is actually a very optimistic person, as can be show in the catchphrase, My momma always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get. The movie depicts a period span 30 years, and in these many years, Forest Gump achieved fame and financial success, of course, it is not possible for him to achieve that without his determination, willpower and perseverance.

　　3. Which one of the following qualities do you think is the most important for a university student: highly-motivated, hard-working or intelligent?

　　Well, I think hard-work is the most important quality for a college student. To begin with, intelligence is mostly inherited from your parents, and we have no control over it. However, hard work is applicable to everyone, because it is not inborn. Hard work can be developed unlike intelligence. Additionally, a college student with high intelligence but lacks of hard-work might not graduate since students are overwhelmed with lots of assignment like, group project, researcher papers and exams and stuff. If they don't work hard and put things off, they won't meet the graduation requirement.

　　4. Describe a family member who has a different personality from you and explain why?

　　I would say my dad has a totally different personality from me. I am very passionate and optimistic person, and I like constantly taking challenges in my life and doing something that I have never experienced before, like studying abroad. However, my dad is a quite conservative person, he would never do something that will make him stand out, and frankly, he is kind of pessimistic and sometimes cynical about the world, specifically, he would complain about negative things in life instead of thinking on the bright side.
