---Can you tell me something about your hometown?
My hometown, Quanzhou, is a small city, but it have won masses of honor. For instance, it is one of the first 24 “China Ancient City” as well as a “National hygienic City”. Quanzhou is also a famous hometown for overseas Chinese and Taiwanese, so we use Hokkien as our dialect.
---Why do you want to attend a HK high school?
The most important reason is I think learning in HK can help me find my dream. In mainland, we have to attend University Entrance Examination at the end of our secondary school life, all students spare no effort in order to win a good score in the exam. Therefore, though our school also held some extra-curricular contests, no one attach importance to it. You see, mainland’s education system only emphasize academic scores and ignore extra-curricular activities. But I think they are both important because much extra-curricular activities help students know what they like to do in the future. Recently media reports that a Beijing’s highest ranking students was unaccepted to all Ivy League universities, it also proves academic scores is not so essential. Besides, I think learning in HK can help me form good manners.
---Why do you choose our school?
First, TWGSS is a famous regional elite school, students learning in this school usually have excellent academic scores as well as doing well in extra-curricular works, I think I can develop comprehensively in such school. Besides, TWGSS is a EMI school which can help improving my English standard.

I have participated in the national mathematics, writing, painting as well as handcraft making competitions and won a number of awards, like the first in the writing competition held in Quanzhou. In addition, my writing has been published on the Southeast Morning Post in Quanzhou three times. I have a wide range of interests as well as good scores. My primary school, secondary school and senior school are the best school in Quanzhou respectively. Besides, you can see the score reports and certificates provided. Influenced by our school’s atmosphere, I do not attend many activities but buried myself in studying. In spite of this, I think I can contribute a lot to your school.
How do you spend your spare time?
Usually I writing letters, doing handicrafts, playing computers and watching comics in my spare time. I like writing letters and I have an amount of pen pals in mainland and abroad.
