范文:
OK, right then, well, the person I’d like to talk about is Warren Buffett, who I’m sur you know.
And uh, I guess he’s quite a popular choice , so if you’ve heard this from other caandidates as well, then I do apologize, but he really is someone that I’d love to meet one day, not that I think it’s gonna happen or anything!
But it would be good!
It would be nice!
And uh, as for how I first got to know about him, well I honestly can’t remember.
I mean, I’ve known of him for about the last 100 years or so.
But if I were to hazard a guess, I’d say, most likely I heard about him from the TV, cos he crops up in the news quite a lot.
So that’s probably how I first hear about him.
Antway, going on to why he’s famous, well as I’m sure you know, he’s one of the world’s most successful investors, if not the most successful.
Cos he’s made so much money from investing in various companies.
You know, he seems to have a knack for choosing the right shares and finding companies which are gonna prosper.
And this knid of partly explains why I’d like to meet him.
You know, I’d love to pick his brains, because I think there’s a tremendous amount I could learn from him, and not just in terms of, you know, how to pick good shares and stuff, but um, also in terms of how to uh… how can I put it… how to kind of manage yourself in everything you do. For example, I mean, although he’s, like, super rich, he doesn’t go around flaunting his wealth.
And he comes across as areally as a down-to-earth person, if you know what I mean.
He just seems to treat everyone with the utmost respect.
And it’s this um… whtat’s the world…um… I guess could say humility he shows that’s probably the number one quality I think I can learn from him.
So yeah, that’s pretty much it.
Thanks for listening!
