The romantic love story——The film describes a love story between a harlot and a rich man. It is a fairy story about Cinderella of modern version. Being the he-ro-in-e in a fairy tale seems to be the dream of every girl since very young. All girls are looking forward to romantic love stories descending on them. The more impossible the love is going to happen, the happier the girl to be, which is definitely decided by the nature of girls. The most impressed things came to me in the film were the hero’s (Richard Gere) character. He was charming, a real confident man, so perfect, so charming, however, that didn’t make you think he was conceited or he was pretend to be attractive. As a matter of fact, he is an indeed gentleman, with a natural gentle manner. His charm actually comes from his inner refinement. His personality is a great magnet to me.In the meanwhile, the difference between a rude woman and elegant women are obviously high lightened in this film, which I has paid attention to for a long time.
What qualities do you think a friend should have to continue the friendship? Use specific reasons to support your idea.
In my heart, I think the most important quality to continue the friendship is sincerity. A true friendship must be built on sincerity. However, to continue a friendship is not a easy thing. Both of each other have to pay a lot. The word sincerity contains too much. Firstly, we need to be frank and honest to each other. Only if when we did so can the other side treat us like the same and thus build belief between friends. A friendship full of lies and deceit shouldn't be called friendship. Secondly, we need to be considerable and do not be self-centered. We should think more for our friends and encourage them on certain occasion. A self-centered friend can be very troublesome and annoying. No one would tolerate him for a long time. Finally, I think we should learn to compromise sometimes. We can't live in harmony forever with our friends. When there expose a disagreement, we should compromise to each other. Only by this way can a friendship last long.
change the world? change ourselves
good evening， honorable judges， ladies and gentlemen。
it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world，change ourselves。
it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular dayby day， while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected。 notlong before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversityannounced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ，because theyregard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals andculture。
frankly speaking， i don’t quite agree with them。indeed， we should neverneglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brillianthistory and splendid traditions。 (examples)。but why can’t we absorb themeaningful western holidays and culture。
there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular inchina。 on the one hand， some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t haveare reasonable and meaningful， such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc。 onthe other hand，the prevalence of globalization enables western culture toprevail in china。 overwhelmed by such a trend，chinese unconsiciously getinvolved in western holidays and culture。
with the further development of the whole world， the cultural communicationbetween different countries and nations becomes faster and more and moreimportant。 we are indeed from different nations， but we are the citizens of thesame world， so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealthof everyone on the earth。the only way for us to protect our traditional cultureis to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no。 what we ought todo is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure oursplendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture。 only by educating canwe set our confidence and belief towards our culture。 only by educating can wepreserve and promote the wealth that our ancesters left for us。
