91- If you could ask a famous person one question, what would you ask? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer. If I could ask a famous person one question, I would definitely ask about his/her opinion about life. This single question will help me to know about all the aspects of his/her personality. In my opinion, a person’s view about life and the way he deals with life play a very important role in the path of success. Different people have different opinions about life. These opinions are somehow responsible for their success or failure in life. A successful person has always very optimistic views about life. He considers life as a period of struggle therefore; he expects good results in the future. So, a famous person’s ideas about life could motivate us to do hard work and sincere struggle. A triumphant person is aware of the hardships and difficulties of life. That is why he knows how to deal with the adverse circumstances of life in order to obtain success and fame. After all, achieving success and fame is not an easy task. A famous person had to face many obstacles in life with firm determination for achieving his goal. Thus, only a victorious person can explain the true definition of life because he had already experienced ups and downs in life. Moreover, this question can tell us about his approach to life. In this way, we could easily know about his character and various habits. If he regards life as the most beautiful thing then it shows that he has enough patience to bear the troubles of life. On the other hand, if he views life as the worst thing then it is evident that he does not know how to tackle the difficult situations in life and he is impatient, too. Due to the above-mentioned reasons, I would ask a famous personality his opinion about life. The thoughts and experiences of a renowned person related to life will help us to understand the meaning of life very closely. It will also indirectly reveal to us his secret of success. Moreover, we will be able to learn about his character in detail.

thanx for ur comments. could u please point out some of the grammatical mistakes in my essay.

plz rate my essay and correct it. i would be very thankful to u. 183 Films can tell us a lot about the country where they were made. What have you learned about a country from watching its movies? Use specific examples and details to support your response. Films, released in the last century, are more and more difficult to be ignored. They are as much a part of our lives as are our meals, work or school, and so fascinating that virtually nobody will be able to escape its influence. I totally believe that films can tell us a lot about the country where they were made. From tradition to culture, films portray a lot of things. A Lollywood movie, for example, portrays the traditional and cultural values of Pakistan. Pakistan, being a large country, can be an model of different artistic and traditional values. From big cities like Karachi to small cities and villages, the moves depict different cultures the people in the country have, different types of dresses worn by them and different languages spoken by them. Moreover, films can also target on a variety of political issues, governmental matters, social problems and law enforcement affairs. Most films are based on real stories and incidents taking place in the country where they were made. One can easily know about the political and social conditions prevailing in the country by watching the films of that country. Films also highlight on the various types of citizens of the country, their attitudes and their ways of living. They also focus on the varieties of problems faced by people, the role of government in solving such problems and the privileges enjoyed by the people of that country. Some religious films let us know about the religions practiced and festivals celebrated by the inhabitants of the country. Films also show the scenic beauty of the country as these films generally cover major tourist spots of the country. In this they actually show us how beautiful the country is and what are the places worth-visiting in the country. To conclude, I reinstate that the films contain the very essence of the country in which they were made. They help us a great deal in understanding religion, culture, traditions and society of a country.

College College is a place for students to acquire more and richer knowledge and experiences. Different people will have different reasons to attend college or university. Some of them want to further their studies in university, while some of them hope to find a better job after graduation from university. Anyway, in my opinion, no matter people attend college or university for what reasons; they want to improve their future lives. Firstly, people attend university for learning more and new knowledge. People can study their interested subject in more detail and do some relevant researches since there are many professional teachers who can help them to solve the academic problems effectively. In other words, students will be more equipped to work in the society after they graduate from the university. Secondly, people can learn how to manage things by themselves when they attend the university since most of the works of high schools’ students are arranged by their parents or teachers. When they study and live in the university, they learn to manage all the things by themselves, such as the time management, proper planning and systematic work. In this way, students can grow up independently by making their own decisions and planning their own future. Therefore, this is also an important quality for students to develop in university. Thirdly, the communication skills of students can be improved when they study in university. It is because students have the chances to live with others having different interests and personalities. In this way, students learn how to communicate with other students more effectively and establish a good friendship. This experience is very helpful for students when they work in the society in future. In conclusion, people attend university for many different reasons, but the ultimate goal is to strive for a better future. Many skills can be developed and improved when people study in university, such as the intellectual skill, time management skill and the communication skill. Qualities of friend An ancient Chinese writer in one of his books said there are four kinds of wives: those who are both virtuous and beautiful; those who beautiful but not virtuous; those who are virtuous but ugly; those who are both ugly and lack of virtue. The best wife is the first kind. Similarly, there are four kinds of friends: those who are both upright and sociable; those who are upright but not sociable; those who are sociable but not upright; and those who are neither upright nor sociable. The best friend is of course is the first kind. An intelligent or humorous friend will make us happy but a reliable friend is more valuable since we can share weal and woe with him and can expect his help in time of difficulties Firstly, you can confide in a reliable friend when you feel sorrow and blue. For example, you have worked hard to prepare for an entrance examination, however, the result is quite unacceptable, you really feel unhelpful and even feel uneasy to cope with it. You can tell your secret to your reliable friend; of course, he will keep your secret, analyze the cause and alleviate your pains. It would also be noted that it is your reliable friend who will appear when you need a hand. For example, you are running a small company; unfortunately, you cannot make profits due to the market change and face the problem of repaying the bank loan. When told your situation, he is surely to help you deal with the difficulties; at least, he can give you some advices. An old saying, a friend in need is a friend indeed, gives us the most vivid explanation. In a word, although I agree a friend with only the characteristic of reliability may be not enough, for example, he may always show the different opinions on something; he may not intelligent enough to grasp your view, yet I think that no friends can obtained at all without the basic characteristic of reliability. Taking into all these factors, I think that the reliability is the most important factor to make a friend A trustworthy and reliable friend always stands by us in distress and helps us to face the adverse circumstances of life very bravely and confidently through his/her proper guidance and valuable advices. It is rightly said: “True friends are like diamonds which are very rare False friends are like pebbles found everywhere.” Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Most experiences in our lives that seemed difficult at the time become valuable lessons for the future. Use reasons and specific examples to support our answer. In every adversity there lies the seed of an equivalent advantage. In every defeat there is a lesson showing you how to win the victory next time.” How often we hear such words like these. In a person’s life, inevitably, more or less, there are all kinds of difficulties and tribulations. As far as I concerned, I agree that most experience in our lives that seemed difficult at the time become valuable lessons for the future. I agree this statement without reservation since difficulties and tribulations boost up one’s psycho kinesis, which is a significant characteristic for a person’s success. Just like what taking exercise acts on physique, difficulties have a homologous effect on psycho kinesis. With the experience of suffering, a person learns how to keep his feet when slipping up, and how to regain confidence when failing. So when he met more difficulties in his future, he won’t be defeated any more. However, in comparison with this kind of person, a person who lived a life in which everything always goes well will be perplexed and depressed when he once met a big problem. Another reason why I agree with the above statement is that I believe that the more difficulties a person met, the more he learn from the difficulties, the more efforts he makes in the future. Those who aim at great deeds must suffer greatly, because they accumulate different experiences from overcoming dissimilar difficulties, and these experiences will guide them to the right way in the future. In addition, the one who suffered a lot profoundly understands the importance of struggle to success; however, the one who infrequently met difficulties just considers everything a plain sailing and is idle to make efforts. What’s more, there are large numbers of giants, who make great success in there domains, lived a hard life in their youths. The great composer Beethoven lost hearing in his childhood; Bill Gates, the CEO of Microsoft, even did not graduate from university; and Hawking, the greatest physical scientist, portrayed black hole in his special type wheel chair. Taking into account of all these factors, we may reach the conclusion that instead of mischance and desperation, tribulation is a gold mine buried in your future road, waiting for your excavation, silently. When people succeed, it is because of hard work. Luck has nothing to do with success." Do you agree or disagree with the quotation above? Use specific reasons and examples to explain your position. “Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.” That is how Thomas Edison commented about the significance relationship between hard work and success. However, in his words, inspiration, to put it differently, a kind of luck that was given by god also plays a role in the process of success. In this way, I am inclined to say that success depends on hard work to a great extent, but as we all know, nothing is absolute, luck also has something to do with success. Throughout their lives all people strive to succeed. To achieve this most of them work hard and rely only on themselves in making their dreams come true. But in this process of continuous toiling they encounter luck or lack of it, and sometimes it proves crucial to a person’s development. In my opinion hard work is the main thing that defines success, but in most cases luck also plays a very important role Flemming is very hard in his research, not until he accidentally poured a jar of bacterium on the germ one day could he find the medicine. But without his hard work he would not have the opportunity to find the penicillin. Einstein is lucky enough to have a genius mind but he said genius is only of one percent of inspiration and ninety nine percent of hard work. If he stopped thinking the mechanism of the universe all the time he could not have put forward the relativity theory. Although, hard work is the key to success I think that there are situations in which luck prevails over hard work and knowledge, and without it the person can’t achieve anything. There are also people who traditionally have bad luck, and it’s very difficult for them to succeed. For example, my cousin worked day and night over a project and finally completed it just a day before the deadline. Unfortunately, the next day when he was reviewing it for the last time he spilled his cup of coffee over it. The project was useless, and because of his bad luck my cousin got a poor mark. In summary, I think that both hard work and luck are crucial to one’s development, but we should work hard in order to ensure success as much as possible, although sometimes bad luck may make our effort useless. But after all, we can’t depend on something we can’t control. From the above examples we can know that hard work is the inner drive force for success and luck is is the outer trigger for success.It is like a combustible substance , though it can be burned and explosive but without the match to fire it, it can never be on blaze. Apparently, luck and hard work are like the two sides of a coin for the success.Withous either one, success does not exist. waiting for reply:tup: :hmm: :D
