Revise-Family Background

  My name is Hou, hau-fung. I was born in a family which was harmonious and warm. There are six people in my family, composed of my grandparents, my parents, my younger sister and I. In my childhood, my grandfather always asked me to bow when I met elder. Because my grandfather considered that good manners is very important no matter how old I grow. My grandmother was a piano teacher when I was a child, so she taught me to play the piano when I was three years old. She always said "Practice make perfect", so I used to practice my skill a lot everyday after school. Besides, she also asked me to join competitions or piano tests which made me become more brave when I face people on the stage. My father is a official in Tainan municipal government. Before he obtained this qualifications, he participated to the test for 10 times. So I learned the motto " Never give up too early " from my father. Every time when I met some challenges I were exert myself and tried my best to do it well. My mother is a scrivener who is very busy everyday. But she always makes everything perfect and takes care of all my family well. She is also filial and open-minded. Moreover, she is really a good model for me to learn. My younger sister is a 10th grade student who is independent. Because she lives in dormitory and does everything by herself which makes me admires. Her brave is what I want to learn and praise.

School Life

  I studied at Department of Applied Foreign Languages, National Tainan Commercial Vocational Senior High School. I chose English as my major due to I thought that English was important. At first, I was not really enjoy about studying English. However, with my teacher' s instruction and help, I read many English magazines, novels and practiced English oral speaking with friends. Gradually, I have found that English is more interesting than I thought. For example, some magazines were involve a lot of information and interesting stories which made me more willing to learn it. Besides, I also listened some English songs and English movies to practice my English listening capability. Moreover, I can use English to talk to foreigners which could increase my international perspective. In the process of learning English, I encountered many difficulties. But I always hold a positive attitude toward overcoming them. One of them was that it was hard for me to understand a reading text containing too many words that I don' t know. To overcome this obstacle, I tried to figure out what the article means by skipping the words that I am not familiar to and try to  increase my vocabulary. As a result, I have improved my English reading skill step by step.
  Apart from studying hard, I also learned a lot from the relationship between my classmate and I. For example, we were struggling with each other during the sport meetings. Though the process was a little difficult, we won the Spirit of the total title at the end. After this, I learned that unity is strength and had a lot of memory in my mind.
  As for clubs, I participated in the Japanese converation club when I was a freshman. Because I think that the more leaguages I learn, the more superiorities I have. Besides, I really interesting in Japanese culture and lifestyle. As for me,  participated in the club was a chance for me to know and learn more about Japan. At secend semester, I join the guitar club to learn more ability. Thought I was not mester in it, I was very great about contacting another musical instrument.
