【题目】When I was a kid, I was just like every other kid. As usual, I liked being with friends and having fun. But I didn’t like school much. I didn’t like the rule of learning, studying, memorizing, etc. Too much work. As I got into high school, things changed for me. I started reading a lot of books. Books taught me about life and helped me learn about the world. I read around 30 books during each senior year. I learned to love reading then.

Little did I know at that time that I would write books by myself. I’ve written 7 books since then. One book I wrote, Powerful Attitudes, was a huge success within a network marketing company in the USA.

When I was 17 years old, I took about a dozen guitar lessons. I fell in love with guitar music no matter if it is blues, rock, flamenco or classical. I’ve attended concerts and have heard some great guitarists through the years. Recently, I bought myself a piano and began to learn to play it. I’ve made great progress. My knowledge of music and playing guitar has helped me a lot in learning the piano.

Last week, I employed a Chinese teacher to teach me Chinese. I’ve learned about 200 words in my first week. I’m inspired and motivated to learn. In fact, I feel a bit obsessed, thinking of learning Chinese. It’s like a mountain I want to climb and conquer. I’m 56 years old and my love to learn it runs deep in my heart, mindspan> and soul.

What I certainly learned while growing up is to love learning. I never want to stop learning. I never want to stop studying people, life, processes and new things. I think the openness of admitting what you don’t know, makes you a good learner. You never lie to yourself or to others about your knowledge and experience. I have the attitude that if I don’t know something, I will learn to know it.

【题目】China is a land of bicycles.At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country.Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle.Millions of them,all black.Cars were rare.Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I’ve found the opposite is true.There are millions of cars.However, people still use their bicycles to get around.For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.Bicycles also come in different colors—silver, green, red, blue,yellow, whatever you want.

Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States.The streets here were wide,so crossing took time,skill and a little bit of luck.
