When I was very small, my grandpa liked to tell me his tough year and I liked to listen to him. At that time, wars were everywhere, people ran away for keeping alive. My grandpa was so hungry all the time because he had no food to eat. People had the very hard life before the found of new China. Today, Chinese economy develops so fast, we live the good life, we are no longer struggle for the hunger. Thanks to our great predecessors, they build the road for us. We enjoy the peaceful life and I know it is not easy to achieve. My grandpa educates me not to waste the food and I keep his words in my mind. Peace is the main theme of today’s world, we can chase our dreams and enjoy our life, but we must remember the contribution which is from our predecessors.
It is known to all that track and field is dominated by black men, they run so fast and win many championships. Asian people can’t compete with them. Many years ago, Chinese athlete Liu Xiang had broken the rule, he occupied an important place in track and field. Since he retires, no one can fill the blank space. But recently, we see the hope, some new Chinese athletes made the record. The four guys won the relay race, they got the second prize, which recreated the history. When people saw them competed with the white men and black men, no one thought that they could win the prize. We are so proud of Chinese athletes, they show to the world that yellow men can compete with the world. We are looking forward to seeing more new break through.
It has been admitted that beautiful outlook can bring people a lot of attention, the beautiful person always win the chances to be successful. But what is the standard of a beauty, different times have different standard. In our parents’ generation, it was believed that a girl should be a little fatter, because it meant that she lived the better life, while the thin girl would be thought to be lacking of happiness. In today, the standard of beauty has changed, the most important standard of a beauty is to be thin, the thinner, the better. When we look at the commercial ads, all of the models are skinny, with the beautiful dress, they look so gorgeous. When I see my friends work so hard to lose weight, I feel worried about them. They don’t have to do it, the beauty’s standard will change any time. We should stay the way we are.
