Pushing my limit

In my opinion, everyone has had a lot of experiences of challenge in life. That would be in study, job, relationship or activity. Certainly, I also have had a lot, but, today, I want to tell you the nearest experience, that is going to the Lunghwa University learning languages. The reason is, my English and Japanese are not well for a long time, but I really hope I can listen, speak, read, and write English and Japanese very well in the future. Therefore, I have gone to the Lunghwa University  to enhance my languages. Actually, this decision is a very big challenge for me, because, all of teachers, they almost speak English in class, and I have to give them a lot of reports and presentations in English and Japanese. Of cause, this is the Department of Applied Foreign Languages. According to experts, one stage by one stage study should be better than jumping study. However, I chose a jumping study. So, I need to spend more times and more energies on studying. In fact, I don’t have much time, because I have to work on weekday, and I am very busy. Usually, I go home at 9 or 10 p.m. So, I just can use break time to do my homework and studying. It’s not really easy, so many times, I hardly want to give up, but I am not. So far, I am so excited and glad, because I have studied in here for one year half, got a lot of knowledge and skill on language and made many classmates. On the other hand, I have to sincerely thank my teachers, they always teach hard to us. I just can reach my goal.

Antismoking laws

        The second-hand smoke is a harmful to  the non-smoker, but, most smokers who don’t care that if harmed others, they just want to roll on smoking. Therefore, all of governments had been starting to establish antismoking laws for protecting innocents. Although, many smokers against antismoking laws, but I believe that antismoking laws should be established for three reasons.

The first and most important reason to support antismoking laws is that avoiding a second-hand smoke to en-danger non-smokers. According to the Hong Kong Council on Smoking & Health researched, “The victim who is inhaled the second-hand smoke for a long time that getting the lung cancer is higher than smoker.” It’s like indirect homicide, so I believe firmly, the government must enact antismoking laws to protect guiltless victims.

A second reason to support antismoking laws would be decreased smoking effectively. Why are there so many smokers? In my opinion, anyone can easily buy tobacco, and they can arbitrarily smoke at anytime and anywhere. That is main reason which causing smokers rife. Nonetheless, if there were laws to limit age of buying tobacco and area of smoking, that be able to control smoking desire and to reduce smoking.

The final reason to support antismoking laws is about the pollution issue. The researchers reported, “There are tar, ammonia, nicotine, and more than 4,000 kinds of harmful chemical substances and carcinogens from one burning tobacco. In other words, ten tobaccos will be decuple. Actually, nowadays, there are 350,000,000 smoking populations around the world. How terrible! It’s really a big pollution, so administrations should be passed antismoking laws as soon as passable.

To summarize, smoking has been harming the innocent, smoker, and the environment. Accordingly, the governments around the world should quickly establish antismoking laws.

Tell & show about Par-Kour


Good evening everyone, I am Ken. Today, I will take 1 minute to tell you about par-kour. You can see the picture on screen. “Par-kour” is the sport of running through city streets and jumping between buildings. It started from France in 1980, and means “to transcend barrier of training ground”. I think it’s such as Chinese kun fu “輕功”. Nowadays, it has become more popular in China. I hope this presentation can let you know what par-kour is.

What kind of exercise do you enjoy doing?

Jogging is one of my favorite exercises. The reason has 3 points. First one is simple. It’s not need difficult skills. I am just to do running. The second one is low cost. I don’t spend the other money to buy tools. Finally, jogging can easily train my will and hardiness.

What kinds of books do you like?

    There are so many types of books in the world such as astronomy, geography, history, art, psychology etc…, and people were reading on their interested books. Usually, I would like to read three types of books, the language, the history, and the encouraging titles. 

    First of all, the language that can enhance my linguistic ability and take the advantage of lingual ability in my career. The second one is history that can let me know a lot of different nation’s begging and ending stories. Finally, the encouraging titles are able to inspirit me when I was discouraged, and to recover a lot of confidence.
