The results of the college entrance examinatiun came. I tore open the
envelope. As soon as I saw the score, tears streamed down my face. I
fell into my bed and did not get up the whole day. All was over. What is
the meaning to live on earth? For the first time I thought of death, of
being a vagrant and of being single all my life. I was only seventeen.
Wasn't it cruel to me? My father was hurt and he could not stand it,
that his son was a disgrace. He was angry beyond words. My mother kept
silent, and often I saw her in tears. Horror filled the house.
Encouraged by my parems I took the exam again. Again I failed. It seemed
that my fate would go against my will. Hearing the news, my mother lost
ten pounds in just a few days. I remember even now the sad looks in her
eyes. My father locked all my books irrelevant to the exam. I was
broken down. I was left with no choice but to fight my way out.
I
can never forget the day when I left for my study area. On September
2nd, 1986 I bid farewell to my mother and stepped on my way. My father
sent me by ear. I sank down in the back seat, weak and discouraged, like
a prisoner going on exile.
In the following year, I exerted
myself in study trying hard to keep myself in control. I worked and
worked. At last, success showed me her late coming smiling face. I
entered Anhui University. Friends and relatives poured in for
congratulations. I received lots of gifts, among them there were pens.
Maybe those who have experienced bitter failure know deeply the sweet taste of success.
Iraq is a part of the Middle East next to Iran & Kuwait. It is very
important to the rest of the world because of its underground petroleum
fields.
It is said that oil is industrial blood and for this reason perhaps the war started.
On
September 11,2001,the Twin Towers in New York as well as parts of the
Pentagon were destroyed by an airplane planned by terrorists, which made
George Bush declared to fight the country’s enemies.
It was said
that Iraq still possessed many weapons of mass destruction and weapon
inspectors were sent to the country by the UN to find the clues.
Though
no evidence was found, America still wanted to go to war with Iraq and
the main target is Sadam Hussein. The war was just like the quiet battle
between France and China in 1800s.It was said that a relation of Sadam
betrayed him.
I think war is not just a matter of two persons or
two-family fight. It is related to so many victims’ inrerests . As a
leader, one must always think for all the people, so will his country be
prosperous for always.
Education plays a very important role in the
modernization of our country. However, because of historical factors,
there are still a lot of people in China who are undereducated. At the
same time, China is not able to invest too much money in education now.
It is in this particular situation that the authorities propose the
"Hope Project"-- to donate money to those children who are unable to go
to school due to poverty.
This project is necessary to our
country. It is an urgent measure that the government has taken. In the
first place, this project will give the youngsters a chance to go back
to school, which will contribute to their future success. Secondly, when
people have acquired knowledge, they may use it in the construction of
their homeland. Hence, this project benefits the modernization of our
country a lot. Therefore, it may indirectly result in rising the living
standards of our people.
In my opinion, this project is of great
importance to our country at the present time. And it also will have a
profound effect on the future achievement of our country. We are sure
that more work will be done and every child in the countryside can
receive elementary edueation.
