Do not eat in the theater (final version)



People come to the theater to enjoy the great movie, big screen and comfortable seat. Meanwhile they can get entertainment and relax. Recently, our government passed a law that audiences are allowed to bring some food from outside the theater, but not for those food with strong smell or with soup. But the definition about strong smell is difficult to be defined, everyone has different opinions. Still many people are very happy about this news because foods in the theater are expensive. However, there are still some disadvantages about this regulation.
The first is the interference with others. Eating in the theater will disturb others watching movie. People will make a sound when they chew the food. Also when they try to reach food in the dark will also make noises. Other situations like people whispering about their food will also bother other people. Sometime eating in the movie theater will also disturb watching the movie ourselves. When we try to get the food in the dark, we may miss some part of the movie. Beside the noise, the smell is also a serious interference. We all realize people have different opinions about strong smell. For example, stinky tofu may be your favorite snack but it can cause serious antipathy. In a closed room like Movie Theater, air is difficult to circulate. Soon the room will be full of the smell. It will disturb other audiences.
The second one is the sanitation. Since the regulation that allows audience to bring food, the cleaning of the theater has became a serious problem. People left the trash or scrap when the movie is over. Those scraps may attract mice. Lately, some customers complained that they were bitten by mice while watching the movie. The manager of the theater also indicated that it is difficult to keep the environment clean after people are allowed to bring their own food. This phenomenon is risky because mice will cause some disease as well.
Lastly, research has shown that eating while watching movie will cause gallstones and make you fat. b
To sum up, eating in the theater has many serious effects and disadvantages. When we thought about eating our favorite food with our favorite movie, we should also consider others’ rights. We should also do our best to keep the environment. Pay more attention to this matter when we leave the theater. However, the best solution is not to eat at theater at all.

Do not eat in the theater (1st version)


People come to the theater to enjoy the great movie, big screen and comfortable seat. Meanwhile they can get the entertainment and relax. Recently, government passed a law that audiences are allow to bring the food from outside the theater, but not for those food with strong smell or with soup. But the definition about strong smell is difficult to define, after all everyone has different opinion. Still many people are very happy about this news because foods in the theater are expensive. However, there are still some disadvantages about this regulation.
First is the interference to others. Eating in the theater will disturb others watching movie. People will make sound when they chew the food. Also when they try to reach food in the dark will also make noises. Other situations like people whispering about their food will also bother other people. Sometime eating in the movie theater will also disturb watching ourselves. When we try to get the food in the dark, we may miss some part of the movie. Beside the noise, the smell is also a serious interference. We all realize people have different opinion about strong smell. For example, stinky tofu may be your favorite snack but it can cause serious antipathy. In a closed room like Movie Theater, air is difficult to circulation. Soon the room will be full of the smell. No doubt it will disturb other audiences.
Second one is the sanitation. Since the regulation that allows audience to bring the food, the cleaning of the theater has became a serious problem. People left the trash or scrap when the movie is over. Those scrap may attract mouse. Lately, some customers were complained that they were bitten by mouse while watching the movie.

Last, there are some medical research shows that eating while watching movie will cause gallstones and make you fat.
Apparently, eating in the theater has many serious effects and disadvantages. When we thought about eating our favorite food with our favorite movie, we should also consider about other’s right. We should also do our best to keep the environment. Pay more attention when we leave the theater. However, the vest solution is not to eat at theater at all.

Teachers I've Met (final version)


 Since being a student, I have met many teachers. Before going to the elementary school, I believe all teachers are kind, generous and patient. However, as time went by, my ideas have changed. In short, I divide those teachers I met into three categories.
    First,there are teachers who try to do their best, but they don’t know how to. In this category, teachers teach their students with passion. They take their job seriously and try to get along with their students. However, they don’t realize their ways of teaching or communicating do not work at all. Students complain their teaching and not really want to spend more time with them outside the class. My teacher who taught history in the 5th grade was in this category. During the class, she always asked us to read a textbook and take notes on the blackboard. Sometime between classes, she would come to us and listen to our conversations then make comments. That always made us awkward. My friends always complained that History is boring enough, but under her teaching, History made him sleepy every time.
    The second kind is the most awful one. Teachers teach by giving exams, and always bring their personal mood to the class. My teacher in junior high school is the most awful teacher I have met. He taught us Math for the whole three years. My poor Math ability is a result of his terrible teaching. During the class, he always gave us exams. And if he was not satisfied with our score, he would punish us. The worst of all, he was my homeroom teacher that means those time set for discussing the class affairs would become time for math tests. Every time when he showed up with a grim face, we all knew that we had to be extra-cautious on that day, because we knew it would be very easily to piss him off. Even though we were careful enough, he still could find some excuses to punish us. He was really the nightmare for all students.
    The third one is the best you can have: teachers who are patient, care about students and try to make teaching interesting to make the content easily to be understand. My Math teacher in senior high school, who was also my homeroom teacher, is the best teacher I have ever had. She made Math easily to be understood. She never treated us harsh. She would have a lunch with our class and chat with everyone. Even now I have graduated from senior high school; she still calls and catch up with us. When I have a problem, she is still the first person I want to talk to. She is the teacher who really touches my heart not just my brain.
    I am still a student. In college, there are still different teachers in some categories I mentioned above. I still believe teacher is a sacred job. And every one of them should do their best to fulfill this sacred title.

Class Writing 1

As a student who moves away from home for studying in Taipei, I have the experience of living in the dormitory. If someone wants to ask my preference, I will say that I prefer to live at home. There are two reasons for my preference.
    First, living in the dormitory, you have to learn how to take care of yourself. You need to do the laundry regularly. And you have to prepare food for yourself in every single meal. Though living in the dorm is a great opportunity of learning to be independent, it usually leads some students to the failure of handling money and time.
    Secondly, living in the dorm; you have to put more attention to your health situation. Since you have to eat meals outside, you may keep eating those garbage foods or not eating enough vegetables and fruits. When we live at home, our mothers will handle everything for us. By forcing we to eat vegetables can ensure us to get the necessary element for our body. But once you eat outside, you may loose control on your meals that makes you sick finally.
    However, I believe that living in the dorm is a great experience of learning how important my family is. Living outside will make you want to spend more time with your family. Also it is a step to make you become more independent and be able to be responsible to yourself.

    The second kind is the most awful one. Teachers taught the class by giving exams. And always bring the personal mood to the class. My teacher in junior high school is the most awful teacher I have met. He taught us Math for whole three years. That made the weak foundation of my Math for high school. During the class, he always gave us exams. And if he was not satisfied the score, he would punish us. Worst of all, he was my homeroom teacher that means those time like discussing the class affairs would become math test. Every time when he showed up with a long face, we all knew that we had to be extra cautious that day. Because we knew it would be very easily to piss him off.

Dilemma to the Future (final version)

Before we are able to make the decision for ourselves, our parents always made them for us. What food we should eat; what clothes we should wear. As we growing up, sometimes parents forgot we aren’t children anymore, and they still try to make the decision for us. In my situation, my father always tells me that I should go to the graduate school after graduating from the college. However I don’t feel the same way.  
My father tells me that he hope that I can grab every opportunity for studying and learning. He believes that these days, students graduated from university don’t have much superiority as them use to be. He thinks that people who with high educational background can find the great job easily. However, it is your attitude that makes the future not your degree. It is true that graduated school student can get the higher salary then college student. But there are also some graduate student become too proud, they won’t accept others even their boss criticize them. On the contrary, sometimes college students are humbler and are willing to get the lesson.
If I follow my father’s opinion, go to the graduate school. First, my father has to spend lots of money on my tuition. Second, the graduate school is all about research and writing those papers, browsing those documents. I will spend lots of time on those paper and research which are the most hateful thing to me as a student. That means my life in graduated school will be miserable. So why don’t I just start to find the job when I graduate from university? Then I can earn the money to support my family. Even in the future I plan to go to the graduate school; I can afford my own tuition; don’t have to spend my parent’s money. I really think it is the better choice
I know my father has a different opinion. But he just want me have a good job and a well-quality life in the future. What we need is not arguing who is right but to share our ideas. Let our parents know that we appreciate their concerns, but we are not children anymore. We have our own plans. It is time to let us make our own decisions and be responsible for ourselves.
