This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Dan

30、g people enjoy some form of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some form-football, basketball, hockey, golf or tennis.

The topic of my speech is “My Chinese Dream”.As we know the education of rural areas is falling behind other areas. And the children there are longing for knowledge. Therefore, the problem about the lack of

54、 teachers is especially serious. It puzzles me that parents and friends arent in favor of my idea of being a rural teacher. And they think I am foolish. I understand their thoughts and feelings but I think the children in rural areas are in great need of me. I will study hard to go to college thus realizing my dream.I wont regret my choice. I will struggle for my dream. Come on and join me!Thank you!
