my home， my heaven
dongying，my home，is located in the vast delta plains of the majestic yellow river. there are reeds undulating on the golden beach and varies birds soaring over the wetlands. dongying is a city of oil as well as ecology. the roaring from the running drillings and the sweat on the faces of oil workers witnessed the development of this land.
as an out-and-out child of dongying，i have lived here for 20 years. i didn’t experience the full glorious history of the land，but the customs and the spirits have branded in my heart. i could not erase them, for i am a daughter of an oil worker.
the sincere and hard-working people here taught me what is perseverance; our mother river and the magnificent bohai sea show me catholicity; the elegant swans and the azure sky give us the best instance for harmony between human beings and the environment. actually，all of them are the fortune for my whole life.
it is not difficult for us to find immense differences happened in dongying, especially after the reforming and opening-up. when i was a volunteer of the china-dongying international petroleum equipment & technology exhibition in xx，what shocked me is the rapid growth of this land. with the increasing development of social modernization，we aim not only at efficiently improving people’s life，but in the success of constructing an affluent society and thoroughly applying the scientific outlook on development in recent decades. in order to achieve these goals，it will be our responsibilities to make contributions. as a student at college，the greatest contribution i can do is to keep the determination，endeavor to study scientific knowledge and keep the sense of historical responsibility. in this way，i believe，the future of dongying will be better.
born here and living here，i would like to quote the famous chinese poet ai qing’s lyrics
