Report of my research experience

Recently, we are doing something for our research. My topic is why more and more Chinese students come back to their home country after they finish their study abroad.

The reason for me to choose this topic is because it’s really a new phenomenon now. Many years ago, most Chinese students choose to stay abroad to work and live after they finished their study abroad because they thought the economy and environment are much better than China. But now, the situation changed, more and more students come back after they finish their study abroad. Now, China is developing at a very high speed. Its economy is booming. And students may find there are more opportunities in China than in other countries and working in their home country can really benefit them in many aspects.

I have searched some information on the internet and find some famous and successful businessmen who have had their own experience of studying abroad, especially in America. So, I think this information must be very helpful. And I also find some information about Chinese economy of these 2 or 3 years, I think they will be very helpful. I think the librarian is very helpful because she taught us how to use the library system for searching the information we want although I haven’t searched any information from the system.

I think doing the research can help us improve our writing skill and build our vocabulary. What’s more, it can help practice our skills for searching the valuable information through many methods. However, sometimes, I find it really very hard to find the information I want and I am not sure if my topic is fit for me to write, so I am still hesitating if I should choose this topic. And, as we know, we should write at least 5 pages in our research, which is really a can of worm. Do you know? I haven’t ever written such a long article in English before. This is my first time trying to write so many words and I don’t know if I can mange it. Anyway, I wish I can and I wish all my classmates can finish their work successfully and give this semester a good result.

Another fighter, Obama


Now, Obama made another speech on race and politics, which are both very important topics. It seems that he is always so glib that such a topic can take him so long time to talk about. But, anyway, I always consider him to be a wise person, maybe also the best choice for the president.
Today, he talked about the race and politics. They seem to the most classical topics that even every president would concentrate on them before they were elected. And they made a lot of promise saying I will do what what and I think we should solve the race problem and so on.

However, not all of them really dealt with the problem when they were in power. What's worse, for example, the President Bush did nothing that really benefits different races of people while he led the Iraqi War to make his army tread on the innocent Iraqi people. That's really very bad!
Obama also choose to talk about this topic and he made a lot of comments about black and white people. He wants every race of people to be fair, no matter black, white or Asian. Maybe for the reason that he himself is half white and half black, he will really do something about the race problem and I hope he will do so. Because it's really very important to solve the racial discrimination. Then we can have a real fair and beautiful country.
As we know, America has been a big melt pot of different kinds of races since its birthday. Its reasonable immigration policy has attracted a large number of people to come from their home countries to the USA. For example, in California, there are a lot of people from Mexico, China, Vietnam, Korea and many other Asian countries. Sometimes, when I am on the corner of the street and see many different races of people driving their cars to every direction, I feel that it's such a harmonious society that every race can get along with each other peacefully and friendly.
When Martin Luther King made his most famous speech 'I have a dream' about 25 years ago, the world was shocked. And Martin is really a freedom fighter and did a lot of meaningful things for black people. Today, I wish Obama, maybe the future president of America, to be another Martin and to take a brighter future of the great kingdom and the whole world.

A Chinese song in Vietnamese

Today, I happened to find a Vietnamese song online.Its name is "Thâm goi tên anh", sung by Minh Tuyêt,a Vietnamese singer.
Actually, this song is firstly made and sung by a Chinese singer called Zhou Chuanxiong about 5 years ago. And this song's Chinese name means Dusk, which was very popular in China when it first be sung.
Although it's not my first time to listen to a Chinese song in other language, I still feel very fresh and happy. So,I have just posted it to share with you. But maybe only Vietnamese can understand the lyric, but I think it doesn't matter because the melody is very great too.
