There are lots of movies which are about time travel, one of them is called Doraemon, which is a Japanese manga series. In this manga series, we all know that there is a lovely machine cat that has the function to go back or go forward into time. When I was watching it, I had the time considering that whether I could go back to see something which I did not experience by myself.
If I could go back to observe any single event, I would like to go back to the day when my country was established. I have watched some TV programs and materials which describe the situation that day. It was extremely crowded in Beijing, the captial of China, especially on front of Tian An Men, thousands of people went there waiting for Chairman Mao to read out the most important annoucement (I just cannot find the right word) that the People's Republic of China was founded today. People there were extremely happy because the war ended and finally their own country was founded. I am a Chinese and fortunately I was born during the peace time. If I could experience what other people experienced on that day, I would be very happy to because I could see Chairman Mao by myself, I could share happiness with people there, and I could witness the whole process of the foundation of my own country. It is really meaningful.
If I could change one thing about this event, I would like to change all black and white cameras to the color ones. If so, people in nowadays could feel that context more actually and excited.

Topic #5: Pet Peeves
There are different pet peeves according to different kinds of people. For example, our composition teacher said that she was annoyed by some drivers who forgot to close their blinker, and this kind of situation annoys me, too. Furthermore, I have another pet peeves which is when some chinese talk with me, they keep saying "You know ?(ni zhi dao ma?) " before every sentence.
Believe or not, you can always meet some chinese people who like to say "You know?" as their beginning of talk. For instance, one of my friends was talking with me about a kind of make-up, she would like to say :" You know? Clinique has a very good product. You know? It is called acne sollution. You know? I have been using it for 1 month. You know? My face goes better than before. You know? It really works, and you should have a try. You know?..." I feel very very crazy when I am talking with her. When she was saying "You know?", I felt extremely uncomfortable and as if she knowed everything and she was the smartest person in this world. That is really a bad habbit. From the moment I realized I did not like the way she said, I stopped saying that words so that I would not annoy other people.
Another annoyance is that when people talk about the criticism coming from other people, they do not think about whether is right or not, they just do not accept it. For example, one of my roommates always makes some noise when she is eating something. Once she was eating in a quiet studying room, another student who sat behind her could not bear that eating noise and said to her. While, when she came back, she complained about how strange that student was. When she was complaining, all of my roommates did not say anything because she did not realize that it was really a big problem she had. I felt really bad when my friends cannot do introspection after they heard some criticism on themselves.
In conclusion, we probably meet the situation which can annoy us, we should prevent the situation occurring on ourselves and annoying others.

Topic #4: I Am Beautiful/Handsome, but...
If I could change one thing about my physical appearance, I will not change any parts because physical appearance is something my parents gave me, and it has been decided when I was born. First, I consider it as a gift. Thus, I will not change anything about it as a present. Not changing it shows respect towards parents. Second, I do not want to change my looks not only because I do not want to be someone else, like a copy character, but also because I do not want to lose my own confidence.
Nowadays, many young people choose to change some parts of their appearance like nose, the lower jaw, eyes and so on. I do not think their original looks are so horrible to change. It is really unnecessary. Futhermore, doing operation on face costs lots of money. People use their money to change themselves to someone else, it is really ridiculous.
However, there are really someone who really needs to change their physical appearance because of some kinds of disabilities which destroy their looks. In my opinion, only these people should change their physical appearance.
