Sample Answer:

Well, the person I want to talk about today is X, a famous and handsome actor. X was born in 1985 and he entered the showbiz in 2008. At first, he worked as a host and later he started to perform in the films and TV dramas. He won the Best Actor in the Annual Arts Award for the TV Section in 2011 and became more and more popular among the public, especially among the young female fans. Last week, I watched a piece of entertainment news. It said that X became the hero of a drama named ‘The descendants of the sun’. This drama ranked high in the audience rating, and X attracted public attention.

I am attracted by the figure he performed in ‘the descendants of the sun’, a soldier who was not only brave in the battlefield but also tender when facing his girlfriend. So that I want to know more about him, like how he could have an excellent performance in both his schoolwork and showbiz. When he took apart in the college entrance examination in his country, he ranked the tenth of all the candidates and was admitted to the economic department of ABC University, which was one of the top universities. Moreover, during his serving in the army, he also had an excellent performance and won many honors. I regarded him as my idol and I thought I could learn a lot from him.
