my future

　　I earnestly hope to lead a healthy and prosperous life in the future. Judging from my aptitude inclination and personality streaks, my ideal life will be that of a scientist, researching, lecturing, and writing books. As I am from a farming family, I particularly enjoy being close to earth. If I can afford to live a pastoral life in the countryside, I will feel most blessed. As far as social life is concerned, simplicity is what I intend to pursue, so I really don't need too many friends. All these will be mere talk if I am idle now. To attain my goal, I must make a point of training my body and mind. This is a highly competitive society in which everyone is eager to come out on top. That is not only a competition of physical strength and mental power, but a marathon of patience, faith, and perseverance. Life is not all roses, but with what I am being equipped with by the top teachers in this elite school, I surely deserve a promising prospect.

　　我恳切地希望将来能过着健康而顺遂的一生。从我的能力倾向及人格特质来判断，我理想的生活方式将是担任一名科学家，从事研究讲学以及著作。由于我来自农家，尤其喜欢亲近土地。如果我有经济能力在乡下过着田园生活，我会深感福佑。至于社交生活，「单纯」是我所要追求的，所以我确实不需要太多的朋友。如果我现在懒散，这一切都将流于空谈;要达成目标，我必须重视锻炼自己的身心。这是一个高度竞争的社会，人人都渴望拔得头筹。那不但是一场体力和脑力的竞争，也是耐心、信心和毅力的马拉松。人生并不全是美好的事，但以我目前得自这所精英聚集的学校的顶尖老师所施的教化，我必定有个光明的前程。
