a person I admire
A great tide of reform sweeping across China,a land of one billion people.All over the world people are following its advance.Many of them would like to learn more about China and about the life and world of Deng Xiaoping,the chief leader of this reform.
A member of the Chinese Communist Party since his youth,Deng Xiaoping has rendered outstanding service to the Chinese people,throughout the revolution,during the development of the People's Republic and espacially in recent years when,after the disastrous "cultural revolution",he succeeded in setting the country on the road to socilist modernization.He has proved to be far-sighted and persevering,a man of quick understanding and decisive action.The contribution he has made to the revolution,his courage as an innovator have earned his the trust of the Chinese people.
In his long career as a revolutionary Deng Xiaoping has enjoyed many victories and has also been through severe tests.On more than one occasion he was subjucted to unjust attack simply because he refuse to abandon correct views.This,however,only increase the repect in which he was held,and ultimately he became the nation's chief policy-maker.The collective leadership which he now head has ushered China into a new historical period.
