English Speech on My Ideal career

This is my first English speech, so I am very nervous.

I think my ideal career is to be boss of secondhand books store.
There are various kinds of careers in the world, such as writer, nurse, teacher and doctor. But different people choose different jobs as their ideal careers. This is because everyone has his own interest and aspiration. Interest gives one person power to do a hard work. Then he can learn something which was not touched in common life. Aspiration makes one person enjoy the success of finishing a work. Therefore, one person’s ideal career concerns his interest or inspiration.
My interest is reading books. The range of books I read is wide. The books about history、philosophy、science、design or fiction I am all interested of. The range is so wide, so the books related are so much. When I am in library, I always feel disturbed and happy, because the choices are so much.
Some books which are needed or worthy of reading many times I often want to buy. However, I feel the original price of book is so expensive; especially I wanted to buy many books at one time. So I like the secondhand books stores, I can use a half of the original price to buy books. To buy books in the secondhand books store is like treasure-seeking, and never knowing the books I want will appear or not. It is joy to some books I never heard but have interest in it or the book is not appearance.
Because I like to read books, my ideal career is to be a boss of a secondhand book store.

English Assignment

This is my English assignment on “On Friend”.
According to the article "On Friend" was written they believe people have different view, value and attitude toward friendship in different country. Although France and Germany are neighbors but their definition of friendship is difference. I want to know what make the difference. I am interested in exploring the background between France and Germany.
. In French a man may play chess with a friend for thirty years without knowing his political opinions. French friendships are incomprehensible for me. But for Germans, whose friendships are based on mutuality of feeling, deep disagreement on any subject that matters to both is regarded as a tragedy. For Germans friendship can like family. I want to have a French friend to be confidant in some area and a German friend to be a family when I live abroad.

The First Day of Communal Construction

The first week of May I and my classmates went to Beitou. It was a work for a class called communal construction. In Saturday we take a bus to Beitou at 7:30. When we got there, it was 8:30. The first thing we did was to divide into groups, and we were divided into three groups. One group was responsible for a community. Then we began to know the history of this community’s construction. In the afternoon, we were led to circle the community and know the environment of the community. At pm 4:00 we ended the tour of the day.

Free Time

Today is Friday and I want to go home. I have to take a computer. I and my room friends washed our room because it was vary tidy. However, it’s too messy, and the room was full of garbage and buds. Therefore, today I might not get home to see my parents and eat homeland food, especially vegetarian food, and I have to eat the terrible food in Chung-Gung, but there’s another better choice—I can take bus to Taipei and enjoy the delicious things there. Taipei is certainly a place with lots of things for us to discover. For example, there are more than ten markets there in the official statistics, and almost varies in characteristic in every markets. Among all the markets, I like Shin-lin night market most. Not only because it is very big and crowded, but also because that it provides amazingly delicious food. For example, I like the enormous chicken pie. Even people from foreign countries like Japan, Korea, or America flock to Shin-lin market to enjoy it. On weekends, I have to wait in long lines. Before I get ready to enjoy, I think I should finish all my homework first. It is so sad. I think I have no time after I complete them. I think I can only go to relax next week.
