My most important person is my family, so not only one person. In my case, my admire person is parents, so this answer is similar to my admire person. First, my parents brought up me. I think bringing up children is very hard. However, my parent brought up me and gave me many important things. For example, I belonged to basketball club from primary school to high school. It need to a lot of money, but my parents supported for me a lot. Also, I went to private high school, entered the university and came to study abroad. These things have to pay a lot of money and especially to study abroad is special event for my family and me. I could decide to go to study abroad by my parents a lot of helping and supporting. Therefore, I really appreciate to my parents and they are very important for me. Second, I have a twin sister. Twin is not very special for me, but compere to usual siblings, I have many good things. I don’t know about usual siblings well, so my opinion is just my thinking. First, twin is of course same age, so we can talk or hang out like a friend. When we were child, we wore same or different color clothes and we did everything together. My twin sister is closer person more than friend for me, because we are same age as I said and we grew up together. We can talk anything or go to everywhere together. Therefore, my most important person is my family.
I think the Chen Shu-chu is the most important person in Taiwan. There are two reasons can explained that why the woman is the vital person in my mind. A reason is that she is the most influential persons in the world by Time magazine. She ranked of the Time magazine is the eighth in the “heros” category. Even she is ranked along with former U.S. president Bill Clinton on U.S. She donated US$320,000 to establish the library and help the local orphanage. Some people consider the most important people in his/her mind are their own president because the president governs the country. But in my opinion, the vendor is a model for those of many other people in Taiwan. She makes money by sell the vegetable to earn the penny, but she did not use the money to buy the luxury product or invest the stock to earn more cash. She utilizes the money to help the people. She always says that ‘money serves its purpose only when it is used for those who need it.” I have great respect for her philanthropy. The most important reason is that the philanthropy received widespread coverage in the mass media are read or seen by many people. Thus, the people in Taiwan went to their vendor to buy their vegetable due to her charity. I consider that human touch seems to have permeated every section of society due to this news. In addition, I believe it is the greatest news for us to delivery this kind of atmosphere to people. In short, the important people could be a famous people. In this case, the people who work at street vendor have a worldwide reputation for charity. She won great renown for the most influential people in the world. Even she changes the people mind about the concept of money.
Hi everyone, I’m Shogo.
The person who is the most important for me is Keisuke Honda because of 2 reasons. He is Japanese professional soccer player. I think he is the best in Asia. He is my roll model, but I don’t mean that I want to be soccer player. I respect him as one of Japanese people. I have watched his soccer game since he started his career as a professional footballer. The first reason why I respect him is that he is not talented too much, so he has had a lot of effort; therefore, he is not so much as a genius as a hard worker. For example, he failed to pass the trial of professional youth team in Japan when he was in junior high school. This is one of his fail. However, he didn’t give up his dream and stopped playing soccer. He went Seiryo high school which has famous and strong club in my country. Another his fail was happened after he had translated in VVV, Holland soccer team. In the year he joined the team, VVV was demoted in minor league, devision2, but he changed the adversity to the step of successful. Then, he tried to change his play style. He thought he should get a lot of goals because no one cares about someone who assists the goals in division2. After that, he became goal getter from passer, and he got a lot of goal. He was the top scorer in division2 Holland. The other reason is he is not typical Japanese. He tells what he thought to his teammates directly. After he was chosen to Japanese national soccer team, the team become better and better because they have tried to communicate directly because of his effect. Most Japanese can’t do that. Other example is that he has big mouth. He never doubt his confidence. Before the staring World Cup, he said he wanted to won the world cup, and this is one step of his career. I think he is the person broke the image of Japanese people. In this studying abroad, sometimes I miss Japan, then I think that I want develop my mental and English, values like Honda.
Hi, everyone! How is it going your weekend? I absolutely agree with Satsuki’s opinion. The most important people in my life are my family. My family has six people: father, mother, two old sisters, grandmother, and me. I was strongly influenced by every people in my family, and differently inspired each people. For example, my father always has told me about risk management, but my mother always has told me that you should do every thing you would like to do. When I told my parents that I would like to go studying abroad, my father ask me my plan of future, and my mother ask me about a cost of studying abroad. It meant my father wanted to know I had considered about the risk of studying abroad or not like getting age, spending money, etc. However, my mother wanted just makes possible my studying abroad. I think they have a very nice balance, so I want to be a balanced person as their child. Another Example is my two old sisters. The oldest sister always gave me very effective advice, so when I hesitate, I often ask her. Of course, I asked her about studying abroad before telling my parents. Another sister is kind of my role model because she always did every thing I wanted to do before I did. Before I came America, I went study abroad in Hawaii, and now I am planning to get a job in the U.S., but she is working in Hawaii, already. She doesn’t tell me so much, but show me the right way. Finally, my grandmother is almost 90 years old, but she doesn’t stop progress. She has a lot of hobbies such as making Stained glasses, “Shu-ji” Japanese calligraphy, knitting, etc. She is still progressing skills. Her most recent work was a light stand that was the shape of house. It was so amazing. In conclusion, every member of my family has different roles in my mind and is one of the most important people for me.
The most important person in my life is my father. To be honest when I was young I thought that my father he was hating me because all of my friends fathers they gave to their sons money and they let them to do all things which they wanted. And I was very angry because my father never gave me money when I was young and by the way all of kids almost they will fight between each other and every time if I fought with somebody my father came and he punished me even if that fight was not by my fault. Years past and I was growing and the same thing was happening to me and I thought that my father he didn't love me and he hated me and for that reason he didn't gave me money and he punished me if I fought with somebody even without my fault. And when I became bigger and older I was around sixteen or seventeen and I saw that guys which their fathers gave them money and my father not when we were very young. I saw that they had a lot of bad habits like for me that habits was very dangerous even think about it was not good. Like they become robber some of them are going to the Russia to work some money and they are don't studying at all they stopped to study because they want money and to find money its their job it doesn't matter with which way they will find it because they already become a man and their fathers money gone they become old and now sons turn to turn back that goods which their fathers gave them before. But unfortunately that sons become a monsters and they will not even ask about their fathers health and that is very sad. And in that time I got that why my father didn't gave me money and all time he said me study my son. And now I am thanks to my father that he is growing in the way which he chose and every time if need some help my father will give me advice which I can use it more than money or more than something else. And now I grown how he dreamed and if I need some money he will give me and he already knows that I have none bad habits like smoking, drinking, and going to disco clubs. And he is trusting me like to himself he is sending to another side of the world to study and he don't care that what I will do but he know that I am his son and I am never will go to the bad way. And in the end I want to add that I love my father and he is the most important person for me.
My most important person I have ever known is my father. There are three main reasons for it. First reason why my father is most important person for me is that my father continues trying to improve his ability still now. For example, he started to go to graduate school when he was 40 years old. In addition, he could take classes using Skype, so he worked in day time and study in night time. Finally, he could graduate his graduate school, and it came to be his advantage in his job. I was encouraged through I saw his success. Besides, I learned the importance to keep trying to improve my ability regardless of my age. Second reason my father is most important person for me is my father lives alone because of his job for 12 years. Therefore, he has to do housework by himself. For instance, he has to cook or clean his house every day. I think doing both work and housework is very difficult, so I respect my father. Besides, I came to want to work after I have a child. I’m sure it is very hard for me to do both work and housework, but I would like to accomplish both of things. Through two reasons, my father is the most important person I have ever known.
I agree with Satsuki and Kento. I also think that the most important person is my family. Actually, I have noticed that since I’ve began to live here. It is because the opportunities of talking with them seriously are increased, and I can notice them as respectable person. For example, when I worry about something, they often sense my worries immediately. Besides they cheer me, and they give me effective advices through their experiences before. Also they, especially my parents, always tell me funny stories for cheering me. I always appreciate these acts very much. Likewise, I respect their personalities. They always have positive ways of thinking, and they are cheerful dispositions. Consequently, I often get power of trying to do something positively from them. I think doing something positively is important on daily life. I also get this way of thinking from them. Therefore my important person is my family.
My most important peaple are my pearents. I have no words to express my gratitude for them. I'm only children, so they always think about me. When I was born, my father changed his job, and we moved to Tokyo. They thought it is good for me to live in there, becouse there are many developed schools. When I was child, my mother never let me ate snacks and sweets without her cooking. She baked some sweets for me everyday. Sometimes, we baked it together. I was very excited and love it. In japan, we have to go elementary and jounior high school. It's mandatiry. Almost japanese people go to high school after graduateing jounior scool, and we have to take entrance examinations. However, I didn't take that, because I took that when I entered my jounior high school. My jounior high and high school are the private school. My pearents let me choose this way, because they thought private schools is better than public schools. I could find my best friends and spend wonderful time in there. I want to do something for them in the future. I want them to be more happy. I love them. I think if they weren't my pearents, I wouldn't be happy.
Hi Guys! How was your weekend? I realize that our classes will finish in December. It means we just have 5 weeks in this term. Time flies very fast…
As for me, an important person is my high school teacher Mr. Kitani because my thought was totally changed and formed more strong. Firstly, he is an amazing teacher and has an incredible personality I have ever met. To tell the truth, I don’t think he is a good model teacher, and some of my friends think he is a terrible teacher because of his behavior. One example of his behavior is that when I met him in class for the first time, he wore the crazy costume of Japanese cartoon Gundam. I couldn’t believe it. I’ve never seen such a teacher who did a costume playing. I wondered it was a kind of his joke; however, he seriously said, “this Gundam’s mobile suit is formal for me and I start wearing it from this year.” Thanks to this first impression, I was interested in his personality and I expected he was so tremendous or terrible. Actually, I understood he was a great person after I took his literature class. His class was awesome because he taught us by using a lot of example and experience of his ex-girlfriend. We always laughed his stories. He had a technique to grab students’ mind. His appearance and behavior was terrible, but his personality and class is marvelous; therefore, I liked his class. In addition, he taught us not only study skills but also life lessons. Some other teachers taught their student just good things. For instance, they never said you cannot have own your way whatever you imaged. Contrariwise, Mr. Kitani taught us there are some difficulties we can’t overcome, even though we straggle so hard. However, he said, “If you understand this thing, you can avoid suffering so hard when you face it. Don’t waste your time. And you can find the other important things or dreams more than you now expect.” I felt reality about his advice. For these reasons, he is my important person, and my value was reconstructed after I met him. He put a great role in my life.
