The Person I'm Most Thankful to--Five Essays by Students

The following are five essays written by students for the writing task on the 3^rd UEE mock exam.   One of the reasons I put them on my blog is to show what else an English teacher can do besides teaching English.  The writers' identity is concealed because I'd rather the students thanked a type of teachers instead of a specific individual.  Whoever fits the description is appreciated.

提示: 在充斥著不滿與抱怨的忙碌生活中，我們常常忘了還有一件更重要的事—感恩。除了父母外，我們周遭還有許值得我們感謝的人。。請寫一篇英文作文，第一段請指出除了父母外，你最想感謝的人是誰？第二段請說明這個人對你的影響及你想如何表達你的感恩之情。

For You, Our Dearest Graduates

At today's graduation ceremony, a climax is a film featuring 32 NHSH teachers. The movie was directed by Ko Po-yuan (戈伯元老師). In the film, the teachers act as people from all walks of life. After encountering setbacks in their work, they decided to start a new life by being a teacher. A question is presented at the end of the movie: "What will your second life be like after you graduate from NHSH?" Quite thought-provoking.
