1. Do you prefer to wear Chinese-style clothes or western-style clothes in your wedding? I prefer to wear western-style clothes because I think that I look more handsome when I wear suit. I used to wear a black suit on my sisters wedding ceremony and was praised so after that I like to wear western-style clothes on official occasions. Also I think western-style clothes are more comfortable and fit me well. Furthermore, I think it would be more romantic if I wear western-style clothes in my wedding so I choose to wear western-style clothes.2. Tell a story in picture books. What have you learned from the story?A little black fish named Swimmy lived with a group of red fish. He swam faster than his friends. One day a big tuna fish swallowed all the little fish. Only Swimmy escaped. Although he is sad and scared, he traveled around the deep sea and saw many unique creatures such as a medusa, a big lobster, some strange fish, seawoods, an eel and sea anemones. Then he found another school of little red fish. He asked them to swim with him and travel around but they refused, because they were afraid to be eaten. Then he came up with a good idea. He told them to swim close together like one giant fish so that they could chase the big fish away. From the story I learned that one individuals strength is insignificant. But if we unite together, the strength will be huge. Union is strength.3. Will you take a gap year after graduation? Yes. I would like to have a gap year before I go to work. Because I think gap year is a good buffer to the graduates. I have been being a student since I went to the kindergarten, I am lackingof experience of being out of school, and I have no idea how would it be if I enter the society without enough preparation. The gap year will give me a certain amount of time to study on the real society, and help me make a sound choice of career. I can learn how to socialize, and have the mind opened. Also it could expand my horizon. And I can make more friends. Its also a great treasure of my life. So I will take a gap year after graduation.4. What differences do you know between Chinese and western table manners? Explain how they are different?First, table wares are different. Chinese table wares involve chopsticks and bowls while the main western table wares are knives and forks. Second, arrangement of seats is different. In China, the seat opposite to the door is the honor seat, which is for chief guests or elders. The seats beside are the second honor seat. Other seats are for other guests and the host. However western people prefer long table. The host and the hostess seat at both end of the table, and guests seat at other seats. Last, Chinese usually eat cold dishes first, and then the main courses and staple food. Soup is served at last. Westerners often start with a small dish, then soup and the main course. After that, salad and dessert will be served.5. What do you normally turn to for treatment when you are ill, western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine?

Do you agree with the model of pollution first, treatment later in environmental management? I completely disagree with this model.

Even if the treatment is effective, the cost would be huge, even unaffordable. The time and money we will pay to solve the environment problem is uncountable. In addition, natural resources would be destroyed if the environment is severely polluted. The weather will also be worse. So I disagree with the model.9.
