interesting However -when we arrived there--truth be told-both me and my parents

increasing number of tourists--which resulted in unpleasant noise for us-which was
quite upsetting for us--even worse-near the hotel we stayed --quite a few high-rise
buildings were under construction all day long--it affected our sleeping quality--all of
those noise pollution totally ruined our travel experience After that I feel like-i feel
like all sorts of pollution problems in cities would have negative impact on local
tourism industry-as far as i know--until now-the situation in beijing has been greatly
improved due to the joint efforts done by the government and individuals-like the
restriction signs of decibel in different district or other regulations to control the loud

when that day came--at first -we were thinking about enjoying a banquet /buffet in in a fancy

residence onthe outskirts of the city-saying that we could prepare the meal together to make it
more memorable--from getting the necessary ingredients from the super market to getting the
hotpot done by following the steps on cooking apps on our phone-in the end--the hotpot meal

I remember the first time i saw it was quite long ago when i was
browsing some websites online to check information --then i was
deeply caught attention by this piece of ad due to its slogan-saying
that you can lose 10kilos within a month
Honestly at the very beginning--i somehow was quite attracted by
the picture of a slim and gorgeous lady holding this product in her
hand ---then after i clicked in the link --it says the only thing i need
PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 15
to do is to take the pills -without considering about the diet or doing
any exercise which sounds really exaggerative and unreliable --
since i believe it s impossible to lose weight without healthy diet and
regular workout---in that way--i feel like this kind of ad would
mislead the public-particularly immature teenagers -as they now
pay too much attention to their look and appearance--thus they are
easily influenced by those ads on the internet--so i believe this kind
of ad should be banned by the relevant authorities

sea and practicing surfing--which allowed me to truly have a blast with my parents

to the seaside-where we could see the most magnificent/incredible sunrise view-- to

wait to begin this trip--since all of us had been cooped in the dorm for a month
during the final--however when that morning came，the alarm on my phone didn't
wake me up and i even missed several phone calls from my friend which totally
pissed her off-the main reason was that-the night before--i received an email from
my professor reminding me that it was the due day to hand in my essay within 24
hours or else i may get an F in that course--so i burnt the midnight oil to complete
that essay-eventually i sent that essay to him 1 hour before the deadline at late
night--but because of all that--i was super exhausted and fell into deep sleep ---in the
end--my bestie was really irritated about what ive done to her--i had to keep
apologizing to her and do lots of things to please and comfort her from that
experience--i learnt that （dont be a procrastinator）i shouldn't leave things until the
very last minute -lead to bad consequences

area and learned from an experienced instructor who was in his 60s
PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 15

me--provided that there was a major difference between drawing on papers and on electronic
devices--i found it rather tricky to get a good command of those online tools as well as the
computer skills--it took me ages to finish my first work--back then--the instructor patiently
shared with me some smart strategy and tips and even allowed me to follow him step by step--
after a few months practice i gradually got the hang of it and was able to accomplish a work on
my own-
at that moment--i feel like learning this skill brings me enormous benefits- like boosting my
confidence and getto know more like-minded people from all walksof life
