In 1994, after six years of hard work in Nanjing Sunshine Middle School, I entered Nanjing University. I studied English there for four years.Luckily, I got my first job when I graduated.

I learnt a lot during those two years, especially the differences between eastern and western cultures. I came back to Nanjing University in 2003. I worked as an assistant(助手)for two years and then as a professor. So far I have got nine years of working experience.I won lots of awards.
