Good morning，everyone
I\'m very glad that I get the chance to introduce myself.My name is Zhou Zhiqi.I\'m ---- years old and I come from -------- Middle School.My student number for this exam is ------.
I have an optimistic view of life and I also have many hobbies,such as dance，music，sport，and reading.It was the first year of my study in middle school that I was chosen to join the visiting and learning activities which is organized by our school,in Melbourne,Australia.When I visited that city, I was impreed by its customs and beautiful sceneries.since then, I have been hoping I could live and study in Melbourne some day.This is the reason why I take part in the exam to enroll xxxx School.As the best international school in Chengdu, xxxx school can help me be so good at english that I can get another chance to go back to Melbourne.so it’s very important for me to enter your school.
In fact, the decision to study in xxxx school is made by myself with my parent’s advice.When you hear this , you may be surprised because the same thing hardly happens in a Chinese family.In Chinese tradition, when teenagers have something to deal with, most of them have to follow their parents’ ideas.Although our society is more open-minded than ever, there still are lots of people following the old traditions.However,teenagers in America enjoy the most freedom of the rest teenagers.Theymake their own decisions with a little advice from their parents.Now comes the question: which is better, to follow our parents’ ideas or to follow those of ourselves.
In my opinion, I do agree with American teenagers’ action.We should learn from them to follow the ideas of ourselves when we deal with things.If we listen to our patents’s guiding, we may get things right now but later they are proved to be wrong.Because with the rapid change of our society, their view may be new in their times but is old in our times ,their advice may let us get into wrong direction.What’s more, to do things with our own ideas is important to get a feeling of succes when the result is right as well as to get experience and learn from it when the result is wrong.We can get more benefits if we follow our own ideas rather than our parents’.
In the end ,I want to say that although our parents have much rich experience we don’t have, they may give some wrong ideas to us for their view may be out of date.So,with part of their advice,it’s better for us to do things as we think so.
