U1587 - GW2 - IF

What would we as a group do if we won a lottery of 10 million NT

I think we will buy every member of the group a personal computer. It seems that it is the most important equipment since we are the students of CSIE-Computer Science and Information Engineering.

We cannot live without computer! Then, maybe we can have some fun like going abroad together and also, to improve our English ability.Since the world has become a global village, we cannot say

that English is not important anymore. English is the most common way to communicate with people around the world.

I believe that there is still a lot of money being left off. We will donate a part of the money to Taipei University because we all love our school very much. We hope that it can support some researches of NTPU. (Selfishly, I wish that CSIE can become a famous department in NTPU.)

Thinking of there are a lot of poor people in the world, I think we will use the rest of the money to do some charity such as helping the faraway country or beggars in Taiwan. (I know some of us may want to help the Africans who have nothing to eat, but seriously 10 million NT is not that much so we decide to help our fellow countryman first.) That is what we as a group do if we won a lottery of 10 million NT. You can see how nice person we are by what we have done with the money.

u1587 - IF - GROUP WORK 1.

THE BAND BON JOVI


"It's my life~~~It's now or never~~I ain't gonna live forever~~"

It's maybe a common experience for everybody to have listen to this song and also the singer of this is well-known.

Do you know who I am going to introduce?


Yeah! It's Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi is a hard rock band from Sayreville, New Jersey. Fronted by lead singer and namesake Jon Bon Jovi, the group originally achieved large-scale success in the 1980s. Most people will consider that Bon jovi is a singer but in fact he isn't that lonely.Bon Jovi formed in 1983 with lead singer Jon Bon Jovi, guitarist Richie Sambora, keyboardist David Bryan, bassist Alec John Such, and drummer Tico Torres.Other than the departure of Alec John Such in 1994 (which pared the lineup down to a quartet), the lineup has remained the same for the past 23 years.


After two moderately successful albums in 1984 and 1985, the band scored big with Slippery When Wet (1986) and New Jersey (1988), which sold a combined 19 million copies in the U.S. alone, charted eight Top Ten hits, and launched the band into global superstardom. After non-stop touring, the band went on hiatus after the New Jersey Tour in 1990, during which time Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora both released successful solo albums. In 1992, the band returned with the double platinum Keep the Faith and has since created a string of platinum albums throughout the 1990s and 2000s, also expanding their musical horizons, combining rock with such genres as pop, adult contemporary, and country. The band has also been credited with inspiring the MTV Unplugged series with their famous sit-down acoustic performance at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards.


In 2006, the band won a Grammy for best Country Collaboration for "Who Says You Can't Go Home" with Jennifer Nettles from Sugarland and also became the first rock band to reach #1 on the Hot Country Songs chart with the same song. They have also been nominated twice for the smash hit "It's My Life" and two songs from the album Bounce, "Misunderstood" and "Everyday".


It's My Life" became the most successful Bon Jovi single, hitting #1 across many countries and most importantly, becoming a symbol of band's longevity as they prevailed through many different changes in the mainstream rock scene with admirable success. It was credited with reviving their career after they came off a five year break, during which they each pursued individual solo careers. It was also credited with introducing the veteran band to an entirely new, younger audience.

It's My Life lyrics

This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud

[Chorus:]
It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
For Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks

[Chorus:]
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life

Better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
