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 to express myself： “why are the tears always in my eyes? that"s because i love the land so much.”
我的家，我的天堂
我的家—東營，坐落在廣袤的黃河三角洲平原上。金灘上起伏蘆浪，濕地裏百鳥翱翔。東營，不僅僅是生態之城，更是石油之城。隆隆轟鳴運作的機井聲和石油工人臉上的汗水見證了這片土地的成長。作為一個地地道道的東營人，我在這片土地上生活了20年。雖然我沒有經歷過東營的崢嶸歷程，但是東營的風情和精神早已印在我的心中，久久不能磨滅。因為我是一名石油工人的女兒。這裏勤勞樸實的人民教會了我何為堅忍不拔;浩淼的渤海和母親河讓我感受了何為博大;優雅的天鵝和蔚藍的天空則讓我看到了人與自然的和諧。這些，都是我一生的財富。我們不難發現東營所發生的翻天覆地的變化，尤其是改革開放之後的變化。XX年，當我成為中國(東營)國際石油技術與裝備展覽會的一名志願者時，東營的蓬勃發展觸動了我。隨著東營的現代化發展，我們的目標也不僅局限于提高人民的生活水準上，近幾十年來，我們還貫徹落實科學發展觀並進一步建設著小康社會。東營繁榮，匹夫有責。作為一名在校大學生，我所能做的最大貢獻莫過于下定決心、努力學習並保持歷史責任感。這樣，我堅信，東營的明天將會更加美好!生于斯，長于斯。中國著名詩人艾青的話足以表達我的感情：“為什麽我的眼中常含淚水，因為我對這土地愛得深沉。”
