I think everyone liked it and wantedĀ to discuss it. Most of Chinese is areĀ a little shyā¦is shyā¦but if we donāt have the teachers or leaders there, and we can talk freely much just among us. And there are almost about 300 students to come to presentĀ in the forum. So I think it is very interesting and unforgettable (p).

Speaking exercise
Advanced Topic: ReligionĀ
Speaking of religion, I don’t have a formal but my parentsĀ are Christian. They go to church every Sunday and I like them because Christians are usually very kind and they believe you will get good if you do something good. My mother was a Christian for a long time, she was a Christian for more than 30 years. My dad didn’t become baptized until three years ago. In my hometown there was a small organisation about the Christians but I didn’t think that it is good in that time. It really has a difference between the formals Christians. My parents also realised about that, the organisation in the village is most about want to take part in and pray together. The more important probably wants to bring money to the organisation.
After my dad was baptized the difference in personality is distinctly different. He become more open, kind and more gently. Ages ago my parents would argue over small trifles but my dad becomes more tolerant, so I think it is good. My mum and dad really want me to become Christian too. I want to attend but I only know part of the bible and I think I should attend it because I really feeling some attraction by God.
When I was 3 years old, I fell from a 20m height but I was ok when I landed on the floor. I tumbled a few times and then I fell, but just had a little scratch in my leg. At that time my parents were not there and my grandfather didn’t dare to see you because he thought I might be dead. So I think this is a miracle and maybe God blessed me.
I think that religion is necessary but I also think Buddist is good. In my opinion, both are gods. But I don’t the opinion whether should I believe in only one or any which one. Maybe I should learn more about them and understand more to make a decision.
