Sample Answers:

Speaking of an event in history in my country, it has to be 2008 Beijing Olympic. It was the first time that the Olympic was held in China. As a Chinese, I am really proud of it. And I was very lucky to be selected as a volunteer in the venue in Tianjin. Cuz TJ hosted the soccer event(1) during the Olympic. Then I also got a chance to engage in (2) this game in person. Beijing Olympic is an unprecedented sport event for sure. Cuz China heavily invested on (3) the sports facilities and venues of Olympic and tried to provide better infrastructure (4) for all athletes. There’re three things I was really amazed about the game. First of all, the opening ceremony is definitely an eye-opener (5). It was a grand and magnificent (6) show with strong creativity and visual impact (7). A lot of Chinese elements blended into this show and it made the show so unique. Especially, how the torch was lighted impressed me the most. Second, Chinese athletes have delivered unbelievable performance in different categories of events. The Chinese delegation (8) has won 51 gold medals in total, which ranked no. 1 among all countries. Personally, I was really inspired by their performance and I got strong passion to participate in sports activities. Last but not the least, this game provides a showcase (9) of China to the outside world. It allows people to change their stereotype of (10) our country and become interested in our culture.
