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.

我懇切地希望將來能過著健康而順遂的一生。從我的能力傾向及人格特質來判斷，我理想的生活方式將是擔任一名科學家，從事研究講學以及著作。由于我來自農家，尤其喜歡親近土地。如果我有經濟能力在鄉(xiāng)下過著田園生活，我會深感福佑。至于社交生活，「單純」是我所要追求的，所以我確實不需要太多的朋友。如果我現在懶散，這一切都將流于空談；要達成目標，我必須重視鍛煉自己的身心。這是一個高度競爭的社會，人人都渴望拔得頭籌。那不但是一場體力和腦力的競爭，也是耐心、信心和毅力的馬拉松。人生并不全是美好的事，但以我目前得自這所精英聚集的學校的頂尖老師所施的教化，我必定有個光明的前程。
