Reflection of interview
The topic of my group is Aging Population. We interviewed the people who lived in Yau Ma Tei. First we interviewed the manager of Mc Donalds. As they were working, they were busy. There answer were short. I went to a model shop in Yau Ma Tei with my father before the day I went for interview. I asked for the permission of interviewing who work in the model shop because that person was my father's friend. He worked in Yau Ma Tei for 40 years. He gave us complete answers. Also he gave us the background information of Yau Ma Tei such as the facilities of Yau Ma Tei 40 years ago. He gave us a lot of information. At last, we went to Yue Wah Chinese Product. We would like to ask the sales for information. The sales said there need to work so they refused us. At last, we walked through each levels and observe the people who went to the shop. From the whole process, we got most of our information in the model shop. We got less in Mc Donald's and Yue Wah Chinese Product. For next time, when we need to do interview again, we must ask for their permission first. And then ask for the time they are free. So we won't disturb their business.

Chinese New Year History Assignment
Hello! My name is Speranza. I was an Italian. I borned and lived in Rome, Italy. I was borned at 28th June, 1389 and died at 1st April,1454. I had one brother. He was 3 years older than me. He was a sucessful scientist and he discovered new element when he was 18. My father and mother hoped me learnt more on science but I prefered music.
My mother didn't let me learnt music instrument when I was young. I had a friend called Gianna. She learnt piano and violin. I always went to her home and learnt these two instruments. Of course I didn't tell my mother. I knew I was interested in music mre than science. I praitced everyday in Gianna's home. When I was 10, I started to compose short songs for about 24 bars for piano and violin. When I was 14, I composed a duet song for piano and performed it with Gianna at the hall of Rome.
I got a chance to perform there because one day a person pass through Gianna's house. I was praticing the song with Gianna. That person appreciated us and invited us to perform our song in a concert in the hall of Rome. On that concert, many young musician performed their new songs. I learnt a lot through that concert especially the skills of composing slow song. And the person invited me to the concert was the chairperson of the Youth Music Society of Italy. His name was Enrico. After the concert, I became one of the member of the society. My family didn't want me to have development on music, Enrico talked with my mother. At last, my family supported me for the development of music.
My friendship with Gianna was very long as we were friends since 6. Unfortunately, she was dead when she was 20 by cancer. I lost my best friend. Luckily I met Raimondo. He was also a composer and he was 2 years older than me. He was good at flute and cello. We became friends because we had the same hobby. Raimondo became my boyfriend when I was 21. I was happily married when I was 24 and gave birth to my daughter, Isabella. Then I kept on writing new songs. I taught my daughter piano and violin and Raimondo taught her flute and cello. I wrote two sonatas for pianoand about ten hymns during 1413-1423. During 1425-1427, I composed a song with Raimondo for piano violin and cello. I performed this song in the hall with Raimondo and Isabella. We were very sucessful.
Isabella was talented in drawing more than music. When she was 18, she decided to be an artist instead of a musician. Ramimondo and I supported her and she drew great painting about nature. Raimondo and I kept on composing music. We wrote 4 concerto, 5 sonatas, 9 hymns more during 1431-1451. My health became worst when I was 62. I cough a lot. Later on, I couldn't listen and see well. When I was 64, I wasn't able to walk anymore. I was able to lie on the bed only. I discovered that I got the lung cancer. And I was dead on 1st April, 1454.
I dead when I was quite young. I couldn't saw my grand-daughter. Nevermind, I knew they could live very well. I was happy to compose music. I was happy to meet Raimondo and Gianna. I hoped my music could keep for a long time by the people in Italy forever and let everyone try to appreciate the "beauty" of music.
