- Many international students will choose to live with a people who can speak the same language. In MSU, it's very common. Chinese lived with Chinese, Korean lived with Korean.
- But for my view, I prefer to lived with a man who was a native speaker.
- Nowdays, for us, practising speaking English is very important. But if your roommate is always speaking the mother language with you, you can not increase your English skills fastly and effectively. On the contaray, if your roommate is a native speaker, it's not only better for your course, but also better for you to discover more native culture.
- We should enjoy the Americans socity. So, we need one person who can give you great guide. For example, I didn't know the American football before. But after my roommate told me the all rules and the knowledges, I found I have fulled in love with it.
- A native speaker friend will help you solve many problems you never face. Such as the driver license, socical security number.
- But this topic is a contoversial issue. Some people think if you lived with a people who speak the same first language with you will more convenient. Such as they can take care of each others, they can communicate more directly.
- However, it will make you lose a chance to make more foreign friends. And as far as I am concened that if you can make a good communication with the foreigners they can also take care of you.
- Other people think they shold have a short time to adjust the new life, so they choose a roommate who was not a foreigner.
- For that, I don't agree. You should have to learn how to depend on yourself or not alway by others. independce is very important.
- So, I prefer to choose a native speaker to live in with me. It's play an increasingly important role in my American life.

COMPUTER LIFE
1.The e-mail servece and internet based on cmputer make us communtcate with other much more easily and conveniently.I always use this function to view my parents on line now.
2.Now,e-mails take only a few seconds to send and to receive and we can always meet people,even foreigners,in chat rooms when ever we set up our computers, it really makes our socializing easier as well as keeping up with the news.You konw in MSU you had to receive lots of e-mails from oiss,bank of america, at.t ...so at there it is more necessary to get a computer for yourself.
4.I can read many books in my dorm instead of going to libirary which is far way from my dorm.Besides it is very convenient and much easy to research work with a computer turning on,you can save your works on computers easily,more than just typing a new letter,no matter what your work is even audio or video data,you can also type a few keys to print them out neatly of looking for books or magazines in libraries.
6.A lot of people only regard it as a game machine. Some of my friends have much fun with computer games, it seems takes full of their leisure time. Sometimes they would like to spend over $3000 to renovate the background program or add up new function to enable some games to run more faster or to be more exciting. No computer games, no life.
7..A piece of news goes that a high school student quited all school courses in order to became a professional computer game player, which can get full time job salary from a company,which runs the project of creating new games.
8.I had a dream to become a hacker when i was a middle school student. I done some crazy plans such as, to steal much money from on-line bank computer system, to hit my English teacher's computer to destory our test sheet etc. Unfortunately, I failed.
9.Now the computer technique is growing rapidly to be more intelligentized in order to instead more and more people working. In the future, maybe we need to do nothing.
10. Even if i strong agree that there are plenties of advantages we benefit from computer, but i don't expect our scientists to develop this technique extremely. If they do it, we can't imagine what will happen to us. I don't want to be free in the future.

American Valuable Culture
1. for this topic, i want toi talk about American valuble culture. Everybody know America has not very long history, but their history influence a lot. I am going to talk about religion in America, the Western pioneer, how the Western frontier spirt influnce USA, the life in America, the culture pluralism,the immigrants of America and the ethnic in America. Also i am going to talk about my own opinion about America.
2. Religion is important for America, you can see many churchs on the way, is very normal. I think more than 85%people in America , they have their own beliefs. But many people still believe in God. They think God can help them in many ways, if they really believe in God. Even in any kind of money , there is a model "in God we trust".
3.The Western pioneer has many good qualities need us to learn. They are not lazy, they like to make many things independence on themselves. And they like to protect their family use their own tools and guns. They do not rely governemnt or any other organization.
4.Western frontier sprits influence a lot in America, for a fashion way, like jeans. People like to wear jeans until now, but for qualities. They are very self-reliance, is similar with Western pinoeer, they just independence by themselves. They help others and also improve a lot for themselves.
5.America is a free country, the govenment do not like to control people to do something, they just let citizens to explore themselves and must in legal way. That is a good point to attract people come to America. And in this country, they have more opportuinty to do many things you want, and also many challenges.
6. America culture is pluralism. Mant kind of people live in America, they bring their own culture come to here and mix together. Then America like a "Melt-Pot". For example, there are many kind of restaurants at here, whateve what taste you want. You just can choose what you want. That is convenice and good for people. Also is good for explore culture.
7. During the ealry of America until now, there are many immigrants come to America. They think America has more good benefits and good issue to let people live in there and study or work. They like the style of America, so they come to America . During these years, many people come to here and married with an American, then they became an American too.
8. America is an ethnic country, there are many kinds of people live in America. Like white, Africa American, Spanish, Asina and Latino. Thoes can improve America is a "Melt-Pot"country again.
9. I just came to America almost a year, and i really like to reaserch about American culture. When i study in MSU, i think is more convience to let me know more about American culture.
10. America is a mixture country, i think is good to let people explore themselves, and challenging all the time in America. In my opinion is good for us to know what is a indenpendence country.

To be confident
1. When I was a child,teachers taught us to be confident.They also told us many stories about how to be a confident person.At that time,I couldn't understand "confidence",I just thought we should be brave when we are doing something.I did not realize the importance of being confident until I grow up.
2. As we know,modern society is developing fast,our world is changing all the time.So everyone has pressure from the challenges of future.We have to be confident to face them.
3.In my opinion,being confident is the key to success,if you get it，you get the power to do everything,if we are afraid of the problems and difficulties,we may fail at the start.
4.Confidence shouldn't be base on our imagination,we should take action.It is a trust to ourselves,if we trust ourselves and work hard,so that we can get your goals closer and achieve them.
5.If your are not confident,you should try your best to change the situation,because it is really important for us and our future.Because believing ourselves is also a faith.
6.But how to build confidence in our heart? For those successful person's experience tells us the principle.We should try to talk to others bravely and actively,that will get people close to you,so that you can communicate with others and know them well.A confident expression on your face，a confident gesture and word will really help you to build the faith of confidence.
7.On the other hand,we should find our advantage,that means we should find what are we really good at,and focus on it,than you will find yourself in the work,at the same time confidence is being build during the process.
8.Someone also thinks “confidence” in wrong concept.They think people can not be successful without confidence.In the other words,people who have confidence will achieve their dreams and be successful.I think it is completely wrong.
9.Because if a person is over confident,that will make him get confused.It can lead a wrong way if someone cannot distinguish confidence and proud.Modesty makes people moving forward,being cocky at success,you will lose your way.
10.At last,lets learn to be confident,try to face what you are scared,practice yourself in the challenges and make a better future for ourselves!

Where we should live?
1. As I know, most of students live on campus in the first year, which was limited by school. But according to the students mind, just a little student wants to live on campus. So some students not only rent apartment, but also pay for live in school. That is a unadvisable choice.
2. Now, we will finish the first year in MSU, which means we can move out to school or we can live off campus with our friends, that make us exciting and happy. However, there is a problem, what we should choice? Still live on campus or move out.
3. In my opinion, whatever aspects move out is better than live on campus, such as the price, the dinner, the convenience, to name but a few.
4. First of all, live off campus is convenient, we know that some dorms in school should share bathroom with roommates, especially some dorms have four people that is difficult to use it. We can image that if they have class at the same time in the morning, they both want to use bath room, they should wait and one by one, that will lead they don not wash, going to class, avoiding late to class. But live off campus we can use our own bath room, we do not need to worry that situation happen again.
5. On the other hand, I asked some students about the school food, most of answers were not satisfied. They feel that the school food can not eat every day, they want to do some food by themselves or eat some native food. But the fact is we can not cook in dorm, even if we can cook in dorm, we also should think our roommates feeling. Because some roommates from different countries they are not used to the smell which cooked by us. On the contrast, we can cook whatever we want in our rent apartment without thinking our roommates feeling.
6. Moreover, sometimes we want to study in the dorm, but the roomates talking with their friends or watch TV, play games. That make us can not focus on study. Maybe some students think we can go to library, but they neglect that we will waste too much time to wait the bus or walking on the road .
Obviously, study in our own study room is better than study in dorm.
7. Also, we can not ignore the advantage of live on campus, because some students think live in school can help them improve language, they can always talk with local students in dorm or join the activities. I recognize that is a good way to enhance our English.
8. But live off campus we can find other ways help us boost our language skill too. The first way, we know that there are many activities every week in school, we can active to join, making new friends who are local students. Then, we can usually play together, in the long run, we will find that our English skill has improved.
9. The second way is we should study hard in class, more practice with teachers or classmates. After class we can listeng to English mews, watch English movies, and reading the newspaper. These also good ways to enhance our English.
10. Finally, all of information above can illuminate that live off campus is a good choice for international students living and study. By the way, if you want to move out, you should find a quiet and safe apartment.

- I remember once when I just came to MSU, the " home coming day" was caming.
- A teacher asked us will we go to see the football game, andI said no. When the teacher asked me why, I just answered randomly that I would study at dorm.
- " If you study at dorm everyday, is there any difference between when you in China and come to here?" she said.
- That is, her words impressed me. I think in China there will never be a teacher said like this.
- That's the difference about the study style in the different country. In china,"study"means homework and exam. "Score" is almost the only way that the teacher define whether you are a good student or a bad student.
- A teacher in my junior high school said to a "low score" student:" Your father has better buy you a car and make you become a taxi diver with this tuition than send you to be here."
- What make this happened. According to the report, there are almost 50% students can get into the collage though the exam, so the competation is really drastically. It can make sense that why parents and the teachers pushing students to work hard. The students also feel stressfull.
- However, in American, I think ability and score are both important. There are lots of assn in the collage. Most of teachers would like you to take part in some activitices, and they will organize some of them, like we have been to the elemrentery school.
- In American, the sitution is different. The number of the students are less and there are almost everyone can get into the collage if they want. The education resources are also better and wilder.
- Now, more and more international students came to America to get collage.
