Sesame oil chicken with rice wine is a very traditional food in Taiwan, especially during the winter time or after women gave birth because sesame oil and ginger are good for healing. My mother, grandmothers, and aunts usually cook it for us because it is very healthy and prevents colds. Before I came to Canada, I thought it was difficult to cook, but actually I was wrong. Once at our Chinese New Year party, Claire, one of the Taiwanese students, taught me how to cook this dish, so I want to introduce it to you.
        The basic and most important thing is that you need to prepare some ingredients which you can buy from Superstore. These ingredients are as blew: one small bottle of sesame oil, three big bottles of rice wine or cooking wine, one box of chicken legs or one whole chicken, and one piece of ginger root the size of your palm. You first need to slice the ginger root, and you can use more ginger root if you like a more gingery taste. Cook the sesame oil chicken with rice wine by following these steps.
        Next, you just need to use a big pot and put the sesame oil in the pot. When the sesame oil becomes warm, you put all of the ginger in the pot and fry it. You can smell the fragrance of sesame oil and these slices of ginger root. Second, you put the chicken legs in the pot and fry them. When the chicken legs turn a little golden, you pour in the three bottles of cooking wine. Third, when it is boiling, you can reduce the heat, but you need to keep it boiling until the meat is tender and the alcohol evaporates, and then you can enjoy this dish, sesame oil chicken with rice wine.

        Taiwan, where I come from, is located to the east of Asia in the west of the north Pacific Ocean. The shape of the main island of Taiwan looks like a sweet potato and has an area of 35,801 km2 (13,822.8 sq mi), but its population was estimated in January 2010 at 23,125,514. Taiwan is otherwise known as Formosa, which means “beautiful” in Portuguese. What does Taiwan own special that is? Today, I would like to introduce seven wonders of Taiwan to you.
Night Markets
        In every culture, food is the most important thing, especially in Taiwan. If you want to eat some typical food, going to night markets is a good idea because night markets are highly competitive markets, so only delicious food allows vendors to survive, but the price is not higher than other restaurants. There are all sorts of food and beverages in Taiwan, like pearl tea; a variety of foreign food can be found here as well, for instance Thai food.

Romeo and Juliet was written by William Shakespeare about two young different backgroung lovers.
It was Shakespear's most popular plays during his life time. Actually, I didn't read or watch this story even though 1996 movie, Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes plays. It has opera, musical, ballet, TV show, and movie. I just know they both died because Romeo misunderstood Juliet's death. Almost of people are looking for love, but you want your love is passionate and strong or nothing and simple.

     I think that downloading music and films will hurt the artists who make them.
     First, downloading makes them lose their marketing. If everyone downloads but doesn't buy music and films, the artists will not earn money, and then they can not produce their new work. Second, you can not enjoy music or films of downloads. Movie theater has the good surround-sound, you can experience the view and sound of movies and enjoy it. The sound of CDs is better than the sound of downloads. However, if they are not too expensive, I will buy them and enjoy them because I love collecting them. If the artists do not produce a new one, I will be upset.
     In conclusion, I believe that downloading hurts the artists who make them.

     Every person would like to have their own house, and so would I.
     In my perfect house, there are three important rooms. The first one is my bedroom. Having a good night's sleep is the most important thing in a day, and if you have it, you will feel refreshed the next day. The second on is a living room where there are a television and a home theatre. Music and movies are the most important things in my life, so I can enjoy these and feel relaxed. The third one is my study. I like collecting many foreign books because they are very colorful and beautiful even if I can not completely understand them.
     All in all, I think that my perfect house should include a bedroom, a living room and a study.

     In 2005, I was tired of my job, so I took a vacation to New York City. It was also my first time on an airplane.
As you know, the flight attendants offer the meals and drinks on the airplane, so I ordered gin because I had never drunk it before. The flight attendant asked what did I want to mix it with, but I did not have any idea and could not understand what they said because my English was not good enough, so I got a cup of pure gin with ice. When I drank it at first, I realized the gin was a strong achohol, and then he asked them to mix the gin with 7up in his poor English. It was very stupid.

    Everyone has dreams and goals, and they hope that their dreams will come true.
My goal is to be a teacher, so I came to Canada, and I'm still leaning the following: professionalism, patience & attitude, and being funny & self-confident. First, professionalism can let me teach students knowledge. After finishing ESL programs, I want to study Education at GPRC, and then it can strengthen my professionalism. Second, patience and attitude can help me to resolve students' puzzles. Sometimes, some students will drive teachers crazy, so I need to have patience and good attitude to help my students, and they will also learn to have a good attitude from me. Finally, being funny and self-confident can attract students' attention. Sometimes, learing is boring, so I want to improve my humour for my class, and it can help my to be close to my students. Being self-confident helps me in my teaching. In conclusion, professionalism, patience & attitude, and being funny & self-confident are what I want to achieve.

    Cats and dogs are the pets in many families, and they are also people's best friends, and they will be nice to you if you take care of them, but cats and dogs have some different personalities.
First, cats have a kind of strange personality. When you call them, sometimes they will be close to you, but sometimes they will not, however dogs will almost always comt to you. Second, cats always take care of themselves. They are more independent than dogs, and they will clean up after going pee, and they always clean themselves up, so you don't need to wash them ofter. Third, you don't spend much time playing with them. They can play with themselves, but dogs want you to take them for a walk or play with them. I like dogs and cats, but if I want to have a pet someday, I will choose cats for being my pet and friends.

     A baseball player must master several skillsFirst, a baseball player needs good eyes to see all kinds of balls, so he or she can hit the baseball and run to the first base. If a baseball player can not see and hit a very fast ball or a curve ball that was thrown by an opposing pitcher, his or her team will lose a chance for a run. Second, a baseball player must run fast and arrive at the base before the baseball. If a base ball player can not run fast, he or she will miss the chance to score points. Finally, a baseball player must have good responses for any situation. For example, when an opponent bobbles the ball, he or she must quickly decide whether to run to the next base or stay on the base. If a baseball player does not have good responses to solve any situations, he or she will lose an opportunity of winning the game. In conclusion, a baseball player needs to have good hitting, fast running, and good responses.


# Another time, I would suggest using the plural (baseball players), and then ‘they’ rather than the noun. This would avoid sounding repetitive and would also avoid the awkward ‘he or she’ structure. (Plurals are very usual for general statements.)
