After I came to Canada, I found there are many differences between people in Prince George and people in Beijing. One such thing is about traffic. Beijing is one the biggest cities in the world, and it has a big terrible traffic problem even if there is a convenient website of subway under the ground. People feel crowd when they live in Beijing. They have to take a lot time to go to work and school. When you want to go out, you have to consider whether today is a good day to hanging out or you have to go out very early, in case you will meet traffic jam. We waste a lot of time on the road. By contrast, there aren’t any subways in Prince George because it is a small city, but the traffic in here is better than in Beijing. It would not take us much time to go out. Another difference between the two is eating habits. People in Beijing eat Chinese food every day, though there are lots of kinds of different foods such as western-style food, fast food and confection, but people who live in Prince George seem to eat fast food every day. When I live in my first home-stay, my home-stay mom give me sandwich as lunch every day and she does not like cook some healthy food. Finally, people in both cities have different attitudes for nature. As I see there are lots of forests around Prince George. It has mountains, rivers and lakes, so Prince George’s people are very close to nature so that they love nature and they are kind and friendly. However, it cannot happen in Beijing. There are a few of gardens and parks in Beijing except of those very famous parks, so the government in Beijing even doesn’t allow the citizen to walk on the grass. In sum, people in both cities have a lot of differences that are caused by discrepant culture, environment and government. By the way, I am happy to live here to study.

International students have been becoming a big group in Canada’s universities or colleges. They come from different areas in the world such as Asia, Africa, and Europe. They arrived at Canada, are studying in here, and try to work in here in the future as well. So, whether they should be allowed to work has been becoming a more important question. In my opinion, I think they should be allowed to work while they are studying. I have three reasons to explain.

First, International students can reinforce their knowledge by practising in society. For example, international students who are studying engineering often go to worksite to practise for their technical skills which are taught in class. They can gain a lot of experiences via working outside, and they may also meet some difficulty that cannot be met in class. The experience can help students work in their future firms, and the obstacle can help them be better to overcome the difficulty.

Second, international students can reduce their tuition fees by doing part-time jobs. I know international students’ tuition fees are 3 times more than local students, so there is a greater demand in jobs for international students. They can work in their spare time and earn money to support their studying while accumulate extra experiences by working hard. That can also reduce the burden of international students’ parents. Because of too much money, their parents have to work hard to afford their children studying aboard. For the students, they obviously don’t want their parents working too hard, so they really need jobs to decrease their parents’ burden.

Third, international students can be orient to their new Canada’s life through working in here. Working outside is quick to orient a new place than staying at home. Through working in Canada, international students can realize the life of local people what they do every day, what they think of daily life, and how different between cultures. They can easily fit into Canadian society and get help to study well in school, because at that time they will not foreigners before. As a result, international students can interact with local students well. They do their team works together and make communications with each other. These all can help students fit into Canada’s life.

Overall, I think international students should work as a part-time job.

I miss my hometown so much. I think my hometown is the most beautiful place in the world. There are many views to visit. My hometown is Yulin in the north of China. Yulin is a plateau. There are many views show you and make you feel that it is spectacular. When you stand on the top of mountain, everything is small. It gives you different feelings. When you want to go to a place to pure your heart, it is a good choice. There are no so many trees like Canada, but it still is a beautiful city. You must know of The Great Wall, the first station of The Great Wall in my hometown. Even it is old, I am proud of it! In addition, my hometown has a long history and special culture. They are all traditional Chinese culture, such as Yangko and Paper-cut. Yangko is a popular rural folk dance and it is our custom what is dancing that in some important festival. There are a lot of people can dance it and they are really good at it. Some foreigners would love to take pictures of it when people are dancing it. Paper-cut is one of our customs. You can cut everything you want to cut by paper. You can cut people, animals, and Chinese words. When people get married, they always cut some Chinese words which stand for happy. It is very interesting. Finally, my hometown has many sources, like coal and gas. It is a rich source city. Most of cities rely on my hometown’s source. There is the richest station of gas in China. Even Yulin is not a big city, it is crowed. Many Chinese people live there roughly 300000. Now it is a modern city and it developed very well. It is worth you to visit there. I love my hometown.

            Everyone has some shortcomings to make other people angry. Cheating always makes me angry. In my opinion, I think honesty is the most important thing as person ability in the world. Whatever we do, we need to keep honest to others. Cheating is the most cannot forgive thing.

 Everybody should keep be honest to everyone. We cannot cheat our family and friends, because we love them and they love us, they are our loved and loved us. We cannot hurt our loved people who love us. Cheating will hurt the relationship between you and family or friends. Many years ago, when I was a little child, I was not so honest. One day, I did not want to go to school. So I lied. I said to my mother I feel uncomfortable or sick.” Mom, I have a stomachache. It is so pain!” my mother heard that and came to check me while I was shouting. My mother was worried about me and drove me to the hospital. She drove very fast because of me. When suddenly a truck appeared at right corner, my mother was handing brake powerfully and immediately. I had to say we were lucky. Because I was lying, I almost caused an accident. From then, I swore I never will cheat other people anymore.

                I do not want other people to cheat own family members like me. So, keep honest. It is the most important ability as a person. Cheating is a terrible thing for people. Do not let it close you, and do not cheat people. Cheating is a bad thing.

Facebook is a good tool to keep a contact with your friends, to know more new friends and to get much information. I have three reasons to explain why. First of all, people can keep a contact with their good friends, classmates or teachers. They can know what happened with their friends recently and feelings they have and how are their pictures. It is so easy to make you close to your friends.
In addition, people can get to know more friends. They can get many new friends from different countries. Their friends are everywhere. If you have a new friend who is from a country that speaks English, you have a chance to talk to her or him in English. It is very good to improve your English level and to find out more about other countries.
 Lastly, people can get much information in many kinds of fields. They can get any information from facebook, such as politics affairs, sport events, economics news and entertainment news. A better thing is that you can take part in any communities you are interested in from facebook. You can talk about your interests or hobbies to many friends who have the same interest. Many people are enjoying getting in facebook. They like to know more new friends, they enjoy talking about themselves and they are interested in exchanging their own ideas. More and more young people are enjoying about that.
In conclusion, face book is a convenient medium to chat with your old friends, to build new friendship with foreigners and to get news and find people who have the same interest with you.

    Some people say that internet offers us many value information, but others think that internet give us many problems. By contrast, I agree that internet give us a lot of problems. I have some reasons to explain why I think so.
    First of all, internet gives us a lot of bad information. These bad information have negative effect on life of people and children.
    Second reason, even internet give us a lot of entertainments, including gams. However, playing games spend too much time on our life. Time is life, wasting time equal killing oneself. We should not waste much time on playing games.
    Internet has some advantages, for example, internet gives us abundent information from all over the world. It is easly to get much information and lastest news. Although internet has some advantages, I agree that internet gives us many bad information.
    All of above, I agree that internet bring us many problems.

It makes cars can see wherever you are. Cars only give us convient when we go out, but give us more unconvenient. In many big cities, a lot of office clerks and students have wasted much time because of traffic jam. Therefor, an advantage of cars is bring convenience, it will be doubtful.
    Second, cars also bring us many environment problems, like air pollution, noisy pollution. Air pollution is more and more serious and cause many diseases, like cardio-cerebral vascular diseases, tuberculosis. what is more serious is that air pollution is becoming an important reason of global warming. Cars always have whistle and noisy of engine, and it lead to a great puzzle for us.
    Finally, existing of cars also gives us many threaten of personal security. According to the research, every year it has 19 percent of people died from accident in the all over the world. It is a matter of cars.
    Cars give us a heavy traffic jam pressure, wasting time, environment problems and personal security and so on. All in all, in my opinion, I think cars give us many problems.
