I recently had the opportunity to participate in a charity run event that was held in my local community. The event took place last month in the park near my house. It was organized to raise money for a children's hospital in our city. The event was a 5K run and walk that involved people of all ages and fitness levels.

The event was interesting for me for several reasons. Firstly, I had never participated in a charity run before, so it was a new and exciting experience for me. It was also a great way to get some exercise and fresh air while supporting a worthy cause. Furthermore, it was fascinating to see how people from different backgrounds and ages came together to support the hospital.

Another interesting aspect of the event was the sense of community it created. There was a festive atmosphere with people cheering each other on and supporting one another. It was heartening to see the community come together for a common cause and raise a substantial amount of money for the hospital.

Overall, it was a memorable and rewarding experience for me. I felt proud to be a part of something meaningful and was glad to have contributed to a worthy cause while also having fun.

  • Who is that person?
  • Where and when did you meet?
  • What was his/her idea or invention?

One person I know who came up with a new invention is my friend John. I met him when we were in college and we became good friends because we were both studying engineering. John has always been a very innovative person, and he would often come up with new ideas for projects that we were working on in our classes.

After we graduated, John started working on his own project in his spare time. He spent countless hours researching and developing his idea, and eventually came up with a new type of solar panel that was much more efficient than any others on the market. He even received a patent for his invention.

When John told me about his invention, I was blown away. I could tell how passionate he was about it and how much hard work he had put into it. I was so impressed by his dedication to his idea and his ability to turn it into something real.

Since then, John has continued to work on improving his invention and bringing it to market. I feel very lucky to know him and to have witnessed his creative process firsthand. His innovation and persistence have inspired me to pursue my own ideas and to never give up on my dreams.

One of the best pieces of advice I received was from my grandmother. She told me, "Don't wait for opportunities, create them." It was a simple yet powerful statement that has stuck with me throughout my life.

My grandmother was a successful businesswoman who started her own company at a time when few women were doing so. She faced many challenges and obstacles, but she always persevered and found a way to make things happen.

When I was feeling frustrated about my career and unsure of what to do next, my grandmother's advice came to mind. I realized that I needed to take action and create my own opportunities rather than waiting for them to come to me.

Thanks to her advice, I was able to take charge of my career and make things happen for myself. I started networking more, looking for new job opportunities, and taking on new challenges.

Overall, I'm grateful for the advice my grandmother gave me. It helped me to develop a proactive mindset and take control of my life.

One of my favorite music bands that I listen to frequently is Imagine Dragons. I first heard them on the radio about five years ago when their hit song "Radioactive" was playing everywhere.

I listen to Imagine Dragons because their music is empowering, inspiring, and has a positive message. Their songs are about overcoming challenges, staying strong in difficult times, and making a positive impact on the world.

One new public building that I would like to visit is the National Museum of African American History and Culture, located in Washington D.C.

The museum was built in 2016 and is the newest museum on the National Mall. I want to visit it because it is a comprehensive and interactive museum that tells the stories of African Americans in the United States.
It features artifacts, photographs, multimedia exhibits, and interactive displays that cover topics such as slavery, the Civil Rights Movement, and African American culture. It is an opportunity for me to learn more about the African American experience, which is a significant part of American history that is not often taught in schools.

Additionally, the museum's architecture is impressive, featuring a unique design that incorporates elements of African art and culture. I'm excited to explore the museum and learn more about the history and culture of African Americans in the United States.

  • Describe it.

A friend of mine used to work as a security guard at a local mall, and he wore a uniform as part of his job. The uniform consisted of a navy blue polo shirt with the mall's logo embroidered on the chest, along with navy blue pants and black boots. The shirt had short sleeves, and he was required to wear a black belt and a silver badge on the left chest pocket.

He wore this uniform every day when he worked at the mall, and he seemed to take pride in it. He felt that the uniform made him easily identifiable as a security guard, which was important for establishing authority and keeping the mall safe. He also appreciated the fact that the uniform was provided for him, which meant he didn't have to spend money on work clothes.

Overall, my friend felt positively about wearing the uniform. He felt that it gave him a sense of purpose and responsibility, and he took his job seriously. He also appreciated the convenience of not having to choose what to wear to work every day.

 Describe a time when you tried to do something but were not very successful. You should say:

  • when and what you tried to do
  • why you failed to do it
  • and how you felt about it

Last year, I attempted to learn how to play the guitar. I had always been interested in playing a musical instrument, and I had heard that the guitar was a great instrument to start with. I bought a guitar and started watching online tutorials to learn how to play. However, despite my efforts, I wasn't very successful in my attempts to play the guitar.

One of the reasons why I struggled to learn how to play the guitar was because I didn't have a teacher or mentor to guide me. I also found it difficult to keep up with the practice schedule, and I didn't have the patience to keep trying after repeated failed attempts.

I felt frustrated and disappointed that I couldn't learn how to play the guitar as quickly as I had hoped. However, I also realized that learning a new skill takes time, and I was proud of myself for trying something new and stepping outside of my comfort zone. I decided to take a break from learning the guitar for a while, but I haven't given up completely. I plan to come back to it again when I have more time and can devote more effort to practicing.

  • who your friend is
  • what the truth was
  • what your friends’ reaction was
  • and explain why you think it was important to tell your friend the truth.

There was a time when I had to tell my friend the truth about a situation that involved her relationship. She was dating a guy who I found out was cheating on her, but she was completely unaware of it. I debated for a long time whether or not to tell her, as I didn't want to hurt her or risk damaging our friendship.

Eventually, I decided that it was important for her to know the truth, even though it might be painful for her to hear. I sat her down and told her what I had discovered, and she was understandably upset and hurt. She thanked me for telling her, though, and eventually ended the relationship.

While it was difficult to tell her the truth, I think it was the right thing to do. I didn't want her to continue being in a relationship with someone who wasn't faithful to her, and I knew that if I were in her position, I would want to know the truth as well. In the end, our friendship survived the ordeal, and she was grateful for my honesty.

Describe a natural talent (sport, music, etc.) you want to improve. You should say: what is it when you discovered it why you want to improve it and explain how you feel about it

 One natural talent that I want to improve is playing the piano. I discovered my interest in playing the piano when I was in high school. At that time, I was inspired by the beautiful melodies played by the pianist at my school's musical concert.


I want to improve my piano playing because I believe that music is a universal language that can express emotions and touch people's hearts. Also, playing the piano can help me relax and relieve stress, which is essential in today's fast-paced world.


To improve my piano skills, I plan to take lessons from a professional teacher who can guide me through the learning process. I will also practice regularly and set achievable goals for myself. In addition, I will listen to different genres of music to expand my knowledge and appreciation of music.

Overall, I am excited about improving my piano playing skills and I believe that it will bring me joy and a sense of accomplishment.

Describe a change that could improve your local area. You should say: what the change would be how this change could be made what problems are causing the need for this change and explain how this change would improve your local area

 Describe a change that could improve your local area. You should say:

  • what the change would be
  • how this change could be made
  • what problems are causing the need for this change
  • and explain how this change would improve your local area

One change that I believe could improve my local area is the creation of more green spaces. I live in a densely populated urban area, where there is very little greenery, and it can be difficult to find a quiet and peaceful spot to relax and enjoy nature.

To make this change happen, I believe that the local government should allocate more funds towards creating and maintaining public parks and green spaces. They could also work with local community organizations to encourage the creation of community gardens, where residents could come together to grow fruits and vegetables.

The main problem causing the need for this change is the lack of access to nature and green spaces in my local area. Many people live in apartments or homes without a yard, and there are few parks or green spaces in the area. This can lead to stress and a sense of disconnection from the natural world.

Creating more green spaces would improve my local area in several ways. First, it would provide residents with a place to relax and enjoy nature, improving mental health and wellbeing. Second, it would help to reduce air pollution and provide habitats for wildlife. Finally, it could bring the community together by creating spaces where people can meet and socialize.

Overall, I believe that creating more green spaces in my local area is a change that would greatly improve the quality of life for residents and benefit the environment as well.

One of the most crowded places I have been to is the Night Market in Taipei, Taiwan. I went there during a summer vacation a few years ago with my family.

The Night Market is a popular night market located in the Shilin district of Taipei, Taiwan. The market is known for its delicious street food, shopping, and carnival games. The market opens at around 5 PM and stays open until midnight.

When we arrived at the market, the streets were packed with people, and we had to weave our way through the crowd. The stalls and shops were all brightly lit, and the delicious smells of street food filled the air. We tried different types of street food, such as stinky tofu, fried chicken, and bubble tea. We also played games and bought some souvenirs from the shops.

I felt both excited and overwhelmed by the energy and buzz of the Night Market. Although the crowds were a bit overwhelming, it was an unforgettable experience to be in such a lively and vibrant place. I also appreciated the variety of food and shopping options available in one place.

Overall, the Night Market was an exciting and memorable experience, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who visits Taipei.
