Unit 1: Describe a school cat
Hetao is one of the school cats in GDUFS.He is a typical Chinese Li Hua with grossy fur that would shine in the sunlight. I get familiar with him because of his frequent activities in our 14th dormitory building.Unlike most other cats, he likes being close to students most of the time. Especially when he is hungry, he would rub against the students' feet to get food. Everyone would be very glad to feed him. After all, his downy body and gentle temperament are so pleasing. I can’t help petting him each time I meet him. Being invited to play in the dorm is so common for him. I suppose that eating and napping are his favorite activities. Most of the time I meet him, he would squent as if snoozimg and stay still. The fur of his chest is white and triangle in shape, which is like a table napkin to keep himself neat. He is very clean. He often licks his fur. Even after the heavy rain, after walking through a muddy track, I have never found him splashed with mud (孙梓烁).

He stood on one side of the bridge, fingertips pinching the cigarette that was about to run out. From time to time, he raised his hand to look at the time, and an unhappy expression appeared on his face.

On a hot summer day, I decided to go to the school store to buy an ice cream. When I stepped into the shop, the sweet smell of nostalgia immediately came to my nostrils, reminded me of the past. I seem to travel through time and space back to childhood, can not help but be filled with emotion, time flies, childhood time has passed, But the memories stayed with me.

Unit 7: Harry Potter
I think Harry Potter is a round character. Harry Potter, the protagonist of the series, undergoes significant changes as he matures. Initially introduced as a relatively naive, downtrodden boy, he grows into a more confident, skilled, and morally conscious young wizard.Throughout the series, Harry faces various challenges, confronts difficult decisions, and experiences personal growth. He learns about the complexities of good and evil, the importance of friendship, and the realities of sacrifice. These experiences contribute to his development as a character, making him multi-dimensional and relatable to audiences. Both his virtues and flaws are explored, shaping him into a rich and multifaceted character, which aligns with the characteristics of a round character (麦茵童).

Unit 8: One example about story setting
Source: The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien
Setting: The story of The Lord of the Rings is set in a fictional universe called Middle-earth. This world is populated by many races, including humans, elves, dwarves, and orcs. The main setting is the land of Middle-earth, which is divided into several distinct regions, including the Shire, Eriador, Gondor, Rohan, and Mordor. The Shire is a peaceful, rural area where the Hobbits live. Eriador is a wild and mountainous region that serves as a frontier between the Shire and the more dangerous lands to the east. Gondor is a kingdom of men, ruled by the descendants of Isildur, who once held the One Ring. Rohan is a kingdom of horse-riding warriors, known for their loyalty and bravery. Finally, Mordor is a dark and foreboding land, ruled by the Dark Lord Sauron, who seeks to dominate all of Middle-earth through the power of the One Ring. The story follows the quest of the Hobbit Frodo and his companions as they journey across Middle-earth to destroy the One Ring in the fires of Mount Doom in Mordor (张议文).
