My speech。。。 Good afternoon! My name is Micaela left. I am grateful first of all to God, my parents, to the Republic of China and to the University for the opportunity afforded me to study Chinese - mandarin, because in this world globalised it is very important to learn languages especially Mandarin. I think that the best way to improve is to study and train, to perform successfully in the future Study new cultures, new languages is a form of open road to the opportunities that life gives us. We can not let these opportunities pass; but we need to put all the interest, will and dedication to achieve the objectives Finally, I would encourage all listeners to overcome every day and not get discouraged, since with effort we will go far. Thanks a lot.
