Kobe&Laker

To basketball, I like Kobe Bryant and Los Angeles Lakers best. By the way, football is my favorite sport~~~

If I say I like basketball, it mainly means I like Kobe and his team Lakers. I still remember when I started to like them. In 2000, Lakers became stronger and stronger because it owned Kobe, O’neal, and some famous players who were more and more mature. At that time, all of them were in the best condition. In this year, they started to fright for the champion. They got it, they got it. They won the last champion. From then on, Kobe started to be a real hot star. In the following two years, no teams could stopped Lakers’ step and they defended their NBA title. At that time, Kobe had been one of the most famous stars in NBA. Kobe’s time was coming. Unfortunately, Lakers did not gain the champion after 2002. There were lots of reasons like O’ neal was transferred in to Suns and no new ones joined in Lakers. However, Kobe was still the most popular player with people and he had been always one member of all-star.
Through several years’ effort, Lakers is coming again. In this season, Kobe leads Lakers to challenge the champion. They played very well in the past matches and Lakers is in the first place now. With Gasol joining in, Lakers becomes stronger. In addition, Kobe is the most capable player in the competition of MVP.

Anyway, I hope Lakers can be the final champion and Kobe can be the MAP.

Great breakthroughs !

In Chinese long history, there are lots of breakthroughs which contribute to society and people.

To begin with, there are four greatest breakthroughs, that is, compass, gunpowder, paper making and typography. When these were invented, they all were used into life immediately. Compass was used in navigation widely. When the fleet sailed in the sea, they needed a tool to confirm the direction. And the compass could help them to make sure the navigation exactly. Before the compass inventing, people only could use sun, moon or star to fix where they should go. This was not really precise, especially there were some clouds and the weather was not stable. Gunpowder was used for war mostly and it was the precursor of modern weapons. We can image that if there is no gunpowder, how our life can be. Paper making was also a great invention. We need papers every day and everywhere. If there is no paper, our lives can be damaged. We can not live without papers. For typography, our lives become more convenient and effective. Before it was invented, people could only use hand-writing and this took a long time.

Besides, there were still some significant inventions in history. Seismograph was firstly invented in China which was a thousand and seven hundreds years earlier than others. From then on, people could predict the earthquakes and there were less disasters and losses.

In the world, there were still some important inventions which made some progress. We should give our honor to those inventors. Our lives can not be so wonderful if there are no inventions.

Nowaday work

Everyone has his or her own dream about the job what they will do in the further. The most ideal jobs for people are they can do what they want and like. To be honest, this is really difficult.

With the population increasing, it is really hard for people to find jobs, no mention to their favorite ones. As we all known, China has the largest population in the world and the situation is there are more people and less jobs. When students graduate, they will find job at the same time. It is very normal that there are lots of people in the human resources market.

The situation will be severer and severer in the further. Not only because of the number of people, but the quality and experience. Every company wants to hire talents who are knowledgable and have some experiences. Therefore, if people hope to find jobs or ideal ones, they have to make themselves perfect. As a result, many students choose to continue their masters and PhD. On the other hand, lots of students choose to study aboard in order to gain some different experiences and learn advanced skills. These students are welcomed because they are more capable than others. However, the prerequisite is they definitely master real abilities or they are the same as others. In a word, this is a way or choice for people to find jobs.

Anyway, if people want to have satisfactory jobs, they must try their best to learn learn and learn. Lazy ones can get nothing!!!

Jobs

Well, many people have asked me those similar questions about work. It just likes what kinds of job do you like or when you grow up what you will do. I am really familiar with the answers~~~

Actually, when I was young I hoped I would be a scientist one day because I learned more about scientist in primary school. Scientists are so great that they research and invent lots of useful things and they make an important contribution to society. I was really proud of them so I wanted to be a scientist that time. However, when I grow up I change my mind and I want to be an entrepreneur. I am largely influenced by my father who is a businessman. He told me a lot about the market and commerce. In addition, I read many books about business. I found this job was really interesting and had lots of challenges so I wanted to be a businessman from then on.

However, this job is really difficult for people (Well, every job is not easy and has its own difficulty) because it has lots of pressure and people need to face problems and challenges all the time. Nowadays, with the development of economy, competition becomes more and more radical. And it is harder for people to find job than before, especially for China which country has the largest population in the world. So people need more skills and knowledge to adapt to this situation. In some sense, people always need lucky to be successful at the same time.

Anyway, I will do my best to realize my ideal.

Reading week~~

Wow，it’s reading week now! It’s reading week!!!
Last week my mid-term was finished finally. It was really exciting. When I studied in EAP 3, lots of homework and assignments were coming together at the same time. Time is fleeting. Last week my mid-term was coming. After a couple of weeks studying, I should meet the first big challenge which takes 20 percent in the total score. So I needed try my best in mid-term. So I did!!! I hoped I could get a good result.
Anyway, mid-term has gone. I needed to make a good plan for reading week and have a fun~~~Actually, before reading week I was always thinking about what I should do in this long holidays. Now I can actualize my plan!!!
In the first two days, the activity I did is sleeping. Do not be surprised. Because I was so so so tired. I really needed to have a full break. On the other hand, I also could do a good prepare for the left days.
Then, I almost spent my holidays with my friend who was transferred to UC from US. Because he was a new one and not familiar with here, I took him to look around this strange city. To begin with, I took him to some Chinese supermarkets such as TNT and Lemend. And then we went to Chinook and Market Mall to have shopping. My friend bought lots of things because he lived here from now on. So did I.
The time I spent with my friend was wonderful. Great holidays! Great reading week!

Fantastic Dream

I always believe dream is a really fantastic thing. Although the science is enough advanced, people still do not know why we dream and why we dream the things happened in the dream. Of course I do not either.
In China, there is a proverb: you will dream what you though in the daytime when you sleep. That is, we think the things which have happened can emerge again in the dream. In most cases, that is true. I have lots of this kind of experiences. For example, the person appeared many times who I miss so much in my dream, a final match appeared in my dream because I played football in the daytime, and so on.
Sometimes we can dream lots of things which do not have any relationship with us at all. It happens to me very often. I could use kongfu to kill two or three people at the same time, I could go to a strange city that I have never been to, I could have a dinner with a famous star and so forth. Scientists cannot explain why these happen no mention to me. In addition, I really hope I can dream some people or some events because I miss them and I want to experience the event again. However, the person who you really want to see will not appear and the event which you really want to experience again will not happen in your dream. This is really amazing. I still do not know why.
Anyway, maybe there is no necessary for us to know why why why, whatever we still dream. That is ok.~~~

Navigation

In human history, there were lots of explorers who advanced the development of the world. They discovered new continents or new planets so that they contributed a lot to humans. In China, of course there were also many explores and now I will tell a legend about the most prominent explorer.

Zheng He was born in Ming Dynasty who was the most outstanding navigator in Chinese history. To build the friendly relationships with other countries and develop the trade between China and other countries, Zheng He had led many ships to other continents and oceans for seven times. The farthest continent and ocean Zheng He had reached were Africa and Atlantic Ocean.

Through these navigations, China built favourable relations with many countries such as Sumatra Vietnam and Cambodia. In addition, the trade among these countries became more and more frequent. Every navigation Zheng He would take lots of Chinese product like tea, chinaware and silk at the same time he also bring in many special local product such as coral, pearl and ivory.

Zheng He’s navigations reflected at that time Chinese had owned advanced science and technology. They used compass and map to ensure the direction and ships’ position. Moreover, the ships were classified in different kinds. Some of them took food, some of them used for resting and sleeping and some of them were warships.

Zheng He’ navigations had really significant meaning. On the one hand, it represented the most advanced exploration time in Chinese history. On the other hand, it exhibited China’ generosity and kindheartedness as a strong country.
