Question

Many people influenced various aspects of my life based on their personal characteristics accomplishments (才艺） and values. I have been fortunate to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. There are artists that have inspired me by their natural talents and original creativity. I value many political leaders who have inspired me by their contributions to society and their ability to change our future. But of all the people I have known in my life the person I admire most is my father.

As the youngest girl in my family I always considered myself to be “Daddy’s little girl.” While growing up it always made me sad to see so many of my friends and neighbours without a father or father-like figure around. This helped me appreciate how my father always takes an interest in his children’s lives. In my early life my father continuously pushes me to excel so I could accomplish my work outstandingly among my people. Whenever I feel like giving up or having a question or a concern I know I can always call on him for advice. From him I have also learned that sometimes you have to put others’ needs ahead of your own but not to the point they will begin to take advantage of you. His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times and he is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on no matter how tiny it is. I highly respect him for how he stands up for what he believes in and will never back down. I have always admired his open mind enthusiasm for work and people around and sense of understanding. He is a very reserved man but to everybody’s surprise he has a great sense of humor and always knows how to put a smile on the faces of his wife his children and his friends.

Living in his affection and instruction I am very proud of my father. He also professes how proud he is of his children and is still there to support us in whatever we are involved in.
