The Historical Figure in China 【参考范文】
Among the Chinese historical figures that are widely acknowledged, Fan Zhongyan is the most influential in my opinion. Here are the reasons.【介绍人物】
Known as a Chinese writer and politician in the Song Dynasty, Fan Zhongyan was highly appreciated because he made great contributions to society. He spared no effort to carry out a series of reforms(n.改革) to make his country prosperous(adj.繁荣的). Besides, he proposed(v.提议;建议) the establishment of a national school system, which had a far-reaching(adj.深远的) influence on the Chinese educational system. 【人物简介及事迹】
What impresses me most is his famous philosophy of life. “Be the first to worry about the troubles across the land, the last to enjoy universal happiness.” Fan Zhongyan is such a role model that he always encourages me to be a man of noble character.【意义/启示】
