School Life – Revised

I am studying at Department of Applied Foreign Languages in National Tainan Commercial Vocational Senior High School. All of my classmates are nice and interesting. We study together and experience many activities and competitions. I really love them and my high school life.

I have served as the class treasure, the hygiene leader, discipline leader and the PE class leader. For me, the most toilful cadre position was the hygiene leader. Some of my classmates were often late for school, so they couldn’t finish their cleaning work. I was always the first person that got to the cleaning place and the last one that left the cleaning place. But I thought it is my duty and I was still grateful that all of them were willing to cooperate with me. At the end of that semester, I received a lot of thank-you cards from my classmates. They all wrote that I was very responsible and thanked for my effort. I was also one of the best cadre members. I was not sure if I really deserved so much praise, but I was very happy for both being this cadre member and for those compliments.

Although I major in English, my English was not very good at first, I believe that the harder I study, the better I will be. By working hard, my English capability has improved a lot and also passed the elementary level of the General English Proficiency Test. After that, I took the intermediate level of GEPT. I passed the listening and reading tests, but I didn’t pass the oral test. I knew my English ability still left something to be desired. Eventually, in this November, I will take the oral test again and I think I will pass it if I keep practicing my English skills.

Family Background - Revised

My name is Jing-yi Shao, born in a family with a harmonious atmosphere. My father, a factory worker, works hard to support our family. Unfortunately, my father lost all of his right hand’s fingers when he was working, but he was not disappointed at all. Since I was little, my father has held a positive attitude toward everything and been humorous. Take this accident for example, he wasn’t defeated by it and even made fun of his hand to let us feel relieved. Therefore, when facing obstacles, I tend to look on the bright side and try to deal with them. My mother is also a factory worker. She always asks us to study hard and esteems all my decisions. Thanks for what my mother has done, I know that knowledge is important and become more independent. Maybe my family is not perfect in every aspect, but I am very content with what I have now. I love my family very much.
