compare the differencies between the education of Taiwan and that of America(Draft1)

It is no exaggeration to say that education of Taiwan is quite different from that of America. As far as I am concerned, firstly, the education of Taiwan is inflexible. The teachers in Taiwan always ask students to memorize something just for the tests while American teachers usually teach their students to comprehend the knowledge instead of just memorizing it. Additionally, owing to the traditional thing, it is impolite to confront your teachers when you do not agree what they say. On the contrary, American teachers are not afraid of being questioned and they are willing to talk with you. Thirdly, Taiwanese students seldom ask question, but American students are positive on asking questions. The education of Taiwan is not the same as that of America. As we see, American education is better that that of Taiwan. Therefore, I think we should learn its merits.

I like traveling(Draft two)

It is no exaggeration to say that travel is what I like to do to kill time. There are some reasons to explain why I like it. Firstly, traveling can expand my horizons. I can experience many things and learn from them. For example, I can not only see the geographic features of every place but also learn the local culture. In addition, I always run into many interesting and strange things when traveling. They really amazes me. Eventually, I absolutely agree that traveling can make a person independent and brave. Take me for an appropiate example, I used be a shy girl who always count on her parents. However, after experiencing quit a few things in the trips, I am totally changed. I become more couraegous and independent because I learn how to solve problems I face in the trips myself. Therefore, traveling plays a very important role in my life. Well goes a saying ,"The enrichment of the mind is the real wealth." I actually get much wealth from traveling.
