Dear Sam,
How was everything going? My parents and I plan to take a trip to Canada for a week between the summer vacation. We hope to make the full use of this opportunity to experience the naturally beauty of Canada and learn more about its culture. We don’t want to go to places where are full of tourists and shoppers. Because I am writing to ask for help. We hope you can tell them where to visit. Besides, can you give us many advice on how to find hotel which are not expensive but comfortable?
I would be grateful if you could give me early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
I regularly train at a local boxing gym and I’m lucky enough to meet an amazing man, Adrian Charter. Adrian comes to the gym to train, just like me. The difference is, I’m 31 years old, and Adrian is 72!
I watched Adrian as he was training, early on a Sunday morning, and he was hitting the punching bag harder and quicker than most men in their twenties would. Adrian was a former boxer whose last professional fight was in 1972. Even though he has stopped competing as a boxer, his discipline(纪律) still makes him stick to a training rule.
It simply amazed me as to how a 72-year-old man could train so hard. Believe me, boxing is one of the most difficult sports on the earth, needing much patience,skill, and effort.
What surprised me even more was that a few days earlier he did some running. He ran 9 kilometers. He does this on a regular basis. For me, I can run 5 kilometers at most.
When I questioned him about how he kept such discipline, he calmly replied, “It is all in my mind.”
I thought about it for a moment. If discipline can push a 72-year-old man to train so hard and enjoy it, could I imagine how discipline could serve every single human being on the earth? Right at this point, as you read this story, please pause and ask yourself, “What is my level of discipline?”
Adrian’s example told me that the power of discipline will get us to the finishing line! The bigger the challenge is, the more our discipline can serve us and the sweeter the taste of success will be!

Good morning, everyone，
It's great honor for me to speak here. My name's Li Xiaojun, born of a harmonious family. My father and mother are all high school teachers. Influenced by them, I read widely during my early age, but I've developed a great interest in arts and sports. I'm easy?going, get along well with my classmates.
It is this personality which helps me win over all my classmates' friendships, and also help me overcome many difficulties both in academic and personal life. Being admitted in your university has always been a beautiful dream for me. I dream constantly that I, along with mine classmates, will study happy with the help of the respectable professors; I dream that I will swim freely in the sea, enjoying the waves of knowledge.
I hope all my dream will come true in the near future.
Thank you.
