I’m still a ordinary Senior 3 student, struggling to balance school work and my personal life under great pressures. I’m always wondering how my life will be like when I’m 30 years old. Encouraging by a famous professional interpreter, I have always dreamed becoming an interpreter. I suppose that after 14 years of hard work, you will definitely achieve this dream. I know that taking on this job meant taking on a great deal of responsibility. Serving as a bridge of communication, and I’ll work to improve the relationships between countries and making China's voice heard by the world. I’ll do my share to contribute to a peace world.

I’ve learned from the newspaper that your company is looking for a receptionist. I’m very interesting in the job and I’d like to apply the position.
First of all, allow me to introduce myself. I had just graduated from high school and taken the College Entrance Examination. I want to find a part-time job this summer, that I think will help enrich my social experience. I’m 18 year old and have a good command of English, especial in terms of speaking and listening. In fact, I once won the first prize in the English speech competition hold in our school. Besides, I’m a quite easy-going but therefore very popular among my classmates.
I sincerely hope you can give us a chance. I’m looking forward to your early reply.
4 . For as long as I can remember, I want to be a performer. But when it was time to go to college and decide what I wanted to be for the rest of my life, it didn’t occur to me to choose drama as my major. Making a living as a performer seems impractical to me. So instead of starting drama I started pre-law, and then went to law school like my two sisters did before me. They seemed happy enough, I thought; they worked about 80 hours a week, but they made good money and could afford expensive cars and fancy apartments in the city.
After law school I got a new job and worked as a lawyer for a big company. I had great benefits, including four weeks of vacation a year, but I never got to use any of my vacation time because there was always too much work to do. I worked from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. six days a week, and when I was finished, all I could do was collapse into my bed until I woke up to do it all over again the next day.
After five years of this lifestyle, I thought I was going to go crazy. I was unhappy and exhausted, I never saw my friends or my family, and I realized I hadn’t been in a play or musical since I started law school. I thought that acting in a small community play might make me feel better, but rehearsals and performances all took place during my work hours So I made a drastic decision and quit my job.
I got a small part in a local play and then the lead role. Now I make my living from acting, and once in a while, I do some legal consulting for a little extra money. I don’t get paid a lot for my acting jobs, but it’s enough. I had to give up my big apartment and expensive car, but I’m so much happier now. I see my friends and family, I have free time, and I get to do something I love every day.
