Sample Answer 1 (6分段参考):
To be honest, I'm no expert in history, but there's one period in Chinese history that I'm quite curious about, that is, tang dynasty, the golden age of China. I'm not good at memorizing dates, so if you ask me when it was, if I’m not mistaken, it's from around 600 to 900 A. D. That's a long time ago.
But even though it was a long time ago, Tang China has left many fantastic legacies and stories for us. For example, I'm interested in the life of Wu Zetian, who's the only female emperor in China's history. And from what I know, she was in power for about 50 years, during which time the empire was peaceful, powerful, and prosperous. That's really something, right?!
Apart from that, this dynasty is well-known for its poetry, and one of the best poets in Chinese history is Li Bai, born in tang dynasty. His poems focus on nature, friendship, and the importance of alcohol, too. I found that quite fascinating, you know.
So up till now, I've known a few things about the rulers and the poems in tang dynasty, but I really hope to know more about how this empire ended. Maybe I've learned about this back in senior high, but seriously, I can't remember anything! So maybe I can do some research on the internet and find some answers.
Sample Answer 2 (7分段参考):
Okay so this topic immediately reminded me of one of the darkest times in modern Chinese history: the cultural revolution period. It's a social and political movement that attempted to erase all traces of traditional cultural elements and replace them with Maoism. It was launched by Chairman Mao in 1966 and lasted for 10 years.
My fascination with this period comes from my grandparents, actually. They were the well-read and well-educated but because of their relatively high level of education, they were sent to prison. This really affected my parent's growth and changed the trajectory of my family, so I guess that's why I'm really interested in this time. And I'm particularly curious about why people would allow this to happen, cuz obviously it's against economic and social development, even against humanity.
From what I've learned in my history textbook, during this revolutionary time, schools were shut down, and students were encouraged to act as Red Guards to attack authority figures such as educators. They destroyed books, magazines, and works of art to show their support to Chairman Mao.
I think this kind of extremism is really scary, so I'd really love to study this period of time and have a deeper understanding of its root cause and its long-lasting effects on Chinese development. I'm sure that if we could all learn more about such things, we'd appreciate our cultures more and attach more importance to education and development.
