I would be most interested in meeting Leonardo Dicaprio who is not only a famous actor but is an outspoken environmentalist. I am a Hollywood movie fan and have watched all his movies. He has won many awards including Academy and the Golden Globes as lead actor in many successful movies including Titanic, the Aviator and Blood Diamonds.
Dicaprio is also identified as one of the most active celebrities in the climate change movement and has established a foundation promoting environmental awareness. He has been an active supporter of numerous environmental organizations and sat on the board of the World Wildlife Fund,, and THE International Fund for Animal Welfare. He has also met with world leaders including President Clinton and Pope Frances. Although many have been critical for his environmental impact of his private jet and yacht, he has electric cars and a solar-powered home.
He is newsworthy due to his high recognition, environment fund raising and opinions. DiCaprio's personal life is the subject of widespread media attention. He rarely gives interviews and is reluctant to discuss his private life. I think he is a fascinating individual and I would love to meet and discuss his movie career and his accomplishments.
2. Describe a person who taught you something
You should say:
• Who this person is
• What he/she is like
• What he/she taught you
• And explain how you felt about him/her
I enjoyed my time in high school even though studies were difficult and we were saddled with lots of homework. I would make my way to school and loved hanging out with my friends before and after class. However one of the most interesting and dynamic individuals was my history teacher in high school. He was our modern history teacher and having lived through a lot of the international and domestic events in his lifetime he shared a lot of the stories and experiences.
One of the main things that has stuck in my mind was his assignment that we should read the news every day and be prepared to discuss it in class the next morning. His motto was "today's news is tomorrows history". He would listen to our descriptions and interpretations of the news articles and then provide his take on the articles.
This not only made history interesting but also encouraged us to keep up to date on current affairs. Allowing everyone to participate in discussions helped boost my self-confidence to speak in front of the class. I am not too stressed about public speaking and expressing my opinions. Today I still follow his teachings and read the news every day and on occasion I will discuss the news with friends and colleges and exchange opinions.
3. Describe a family member you spend a lot of time with
You should say:
• Who this person is
• What kind of person he/she is
• What you usually do together
• And explain why you spend a lot of time with him/her
Of course, when I was young, I lived with my parents and spent my most of my time with them. However, when I met my cousin, Chan, at a family gathering, we became best friends very quickly. Chan was the son of my father's sister and my aunt and uncle lived in a nearby village so Chan and I did not attend the same elementary school. We did however keep in contract by texting and talking on Wechat and I was always excited to meet up with him at family get-togethers and parties.
As my village was small, it didn't have a secondary school and so we ended up attending the same high school. We were inseparable, so much so that many people thought we were brothers. I would bicycle five kilometers to school and we would meet up before class and hang out talking about friends and family.
After classes we would play football on the school playground where we became quite skilled, competitive and athletic. One day some older students were hanging out and watching us play. They suggested we try out for the school football team. Being younger than the other team players, I didn't we would make the team however the coach did invite us to play. We both made the team and the following years were starters. I was so proud of our red and gold jerseys and enjoyed the team spirit and comradeship. Chan and I still hang out and chill on a regular basis and stay in touch with many players.
