As I tried describing Thanksgiving Day to my in-laws (姻亲) in China, I could already see their eyes cloud over with 61 (confuse) and sense the questions forming in their minds. So I attempted 62 (translate) the holiday through things they were familiar with. I described the roast turkey as something similar 63 Beijing duck. I compared the annual Thanksgiving show to the 64 (year) Spring Festival Gala (联欢会) on Chinese New Year’s Eve. And I characterized 65 entire celebration as my in-law 66 (nod) and smiled, I recognized that even these explanations were a poor substitute. No words could fully describe the Thanksgiving celebrations I had known in the US.
This 67 (be) the kind of disappointment you face in cross-cultural communication. Despite all the differences, we can still sit down together and have heart-to-heart 68 (discussion) about each other’s traditions. So in the spirit of my American holiday, I silently gave a moment of thanks for 69 (have) in China such great in-laws. 70 cared enough to listen to their foreign daughter-in-law talk about Thanksgiving Day.

I have a dream to be a doctor. Three years ago, I am badly injured in car accident. The ambulance rushed me to the nearest hospital, that the doctor and nurses did their best to look after myself. Five days late, I was getting better. I watched the doctors to perform their duties tirelessly but offer all their patients the best treatment available. My experience in that hospital great influenced me. Ever since then, I have made it my life’s ambition to fight against diseases and save life. I know my dream will come true if I keep work hard for it.
