Environment Pollution

May 17th, 2010   by Connor

I've read a piece of news recently. It says that in Zhejiang Province many people are selling fresh water to local residents. Why? Water is seriously polluted.

In fact, our environment is polluted by many pollutants. The gases emitted from factories and the exhaust pipes of automobiles pollute the air. Besides, the use of chemical substances in agriculture leaves poisonous residues in the tissues of organisms. Garbage cast out by people is left to accumulate in unsanitary heaps which attract flies and give off bad smells.

These pollutants endanger public health. Once they have entered the environment, they are hard to get rid of. As people have to breathe, eat and drink them , they directly or indirectly affect bodily functions and cause many infectious diseases. And in fact, strange diseases have appeared in some countries owing to pollution. People cannot find any suitable medicines to cure the sick persons.

Some people like to put the blame on the industrial revolutions. They say that material progress has also brought many wicked things to mankind. I think it is not true. On the contrary , the pollution problem will be solved only with the help of modern science and technology. Since we know where the pollutants come from and their harmfulness, we should take steps to clear away the sources of pollution and establish a set of regulations to keep our environment free from pollution.

Demerits of Doing Part-Time Jobs

May 15th, 2010   by Connor

With the development of economy and change of the society, college students nowadays are beginning to make money by doing part-time jobs. Doing part-time job will enable students to buy whatever they need for their study with their own money. It also helps college students be in dependence and sociable. However, there are also some demerits in doing part-time work. It will no doubt take up students' time and affect their study. Besides, it does no good to their health because they have to stay up often in order to catch up with their lessons. Moreover , some students even pack up their books and turn entirely to business. In my opinion , college students may make money during vacations.

First, every period of a person's life has its main task. As a student, his main task is studying , and in this period his study ability is strong. So what a pity it is, if he goes into business during this golden learning time! Second, study is a prerequisite of doing business. For example, if we want to do . international trade, we must learn the laws of international business and how to write the business documents. The knowledge in books is concluded from other people's practical knowledge. Furthermore, study is so important that it needs our concentration while to go into business must distract us.

As students, our first priority is to study. Halfhearted efforts will only bring marginal results, and the opportunity to excel in society with a solid educational foundation will have been missed.

Math Teachers

May 14th, 2010   by Connor

I will never forget my math teachers because I disliked most of them throughout my high school years. I remember my first-year math teacher vividly. She had a straight nose on which a pair of gold-rimmed glasses sat tightly at the end. Before each lesson began, she compelled me, her worst student, to erase long white columns from the chalkboards. Each day she gave pages of homework. I hated those assignments, so I just ignored them. In the end, of course, my reward was a fifty in red on my report card.

Next, my geometry teacher stands out in my mind. Although Miss Li was twenty-five, she acted like an old witch of a hundred. She wore the same green dress each day. Her voice, high pitched, would screech across the classroom and down the hall. "Li Yiao", I can still hear her squeak, her lips pinched in a little pink circle, "if you don't know about diameters, I'll have to fail you. "

But of all my math teachers, I disliked most the one who taught me algebra. This teacher, a tall man, had an angry temper that kept most of us from asking questions. Once a girl in the last row asked timidly, "Will you explain that again please?" As his face grew red, Mr. Xu plunged his hands into his black pants pockets. "Try paying attention", he barked, "and then you won't have to bother me with ridiculous questions. " From my past unpleasant experiences with math teachers, I have grown to dislike them all automatically. Is it any wonder that my math grades never rise above sixty?

Beating Children

May 13th, 2010   by Connor

It is quite common for parents to beat their children, because they think beating is a good way to make children learn and behave well. One of my neighbors made a very strict demand on his son and scolded him bitterly or smacked him whenever he was lazy or disobedient. To justify what he did, he said, "Spare the rod and ruin the child. "

Actually beating is a violent way of treating children. It does more harm and causes more hurt than good to children's physical and psychological health. However, beating children is common occurrence in our life. Many children become disabled because their parents hit them too hard. Some lost their hearing and some became lame. Some children develop an internal hatred for their parents and protest by running away from home. Others may become so fearful of their parents that they tremble at the sight of their angry parents. A mother, for example, even went so far as to beat her son to death because she was not satisfied with his study. Likewise , it is not unusual that the child murdered his parents because of the extreme contradiction between them. How can children learn and grow healthily under such circumstances?

Quite often parents will be torn by pangs of regret and remorse after they have beaten their children. They feel very sad in the rest of their lives. But it is already too late. How can they bring their handicapped child back to healthy one? How can they relieve pains in their children's heart so easily? We can say beating hurts both children and parents. It is absolutely a bad way to make children learn and behave well.

Exactly speaking, children are also human beings. They have self-respect and should be respected. Parents should understand them and guide them by advising, persuading and reasoning. They may criticize them without hurting their self-respect, without crushing them. But parents should never resort to the violent, inhumane way of beating!

The role of religion in people's lives is something businesspeople need to know about

May 11th, 2010   by Connor

The role of religion in people's lives is something businesspeople need to know about. Most cultures have some procedure for young people to learn about their family's religion. Children in Catholic homes have their first communion at about seven years of age. Protestant children in mainline denominations are accepted as members into a, church as teenagers (in some Protestant churches adult members are received upon baptism) . Jewish offspring have bar mitzvahs and bat mitzvahs at the age of religious responsibility, usually thirteen. In Thailand every male is expected to spend some time as a Buddhist monk. Usually this is for six months to two years, after completing his education and before getting married and establishing a family.

One way religion affects people's lives is in the special days of observance or celebration. Business travelers need to be aware of religious holidays in other cultures. Friday is Muslims' holy day; Saturday is the Sabbath of Jews. Sunday, the holy day of Christians, may mean that stores and places of business are closed. Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic year, is a month of fasting from sunrise to sunset — not the time to invite a business colleague to lunch.

The new year begins for Buddhists on the first new moon of the lunar year, any time from late January to mid-February, and usually involves several days' closure of businesses. (But Thailand, the most Buddhist nation in the world, also celebrates the new year in April.) In China the Buddhist lunar new year has been replaced by Spring Festival, which takes place at the same time, the first new moon of the first month of the lunar calendar. Obviously, a business traveler to another country needs to find out when that nation's holidays are and when people will be available to meet in order to plan an effective visit.

Businesspeople also need to be very careful not to make assumptions based on stereo-types about other religions. Whether welcoming a new employee or investigating the possibility of a business operation abroad, you want to keep your mind open and your inquiries gentle. Learn what you need to know in order to do business together.

My wife

May 10th, 2010   by Connor

My wife is a lovely petite woman in her forties. Although her hair is gradually turning gray and a few wrinkles have appeared on-her forehead over the years, her bright eyes still shine with vitality. She works as a technician at a research institute where she approaches her job with the same endless energy she devotes to her home and family. Throughout the years of our marriage she has remained committed to me as a model wife and to our son as a loving mother. One time when I was very ill, my wife made sure I had the proper medical treatment and spent a lot of time nursing me back to health. She has often gone without nice personal things such as-fashionable clothes while making sure my son and I were well dressed and comfortable. Even though my busy work schedule has often caused me to neglect her, she has never complained. My love for my lovely wife grows deeper with each passing year.

My First Day Abroad

May 10th, 2010   by Connor

It was my first day. I had come the night before, a black and cold night before — as it was expected to be in the middle of January, though I didn't know that at the time — and I could not see anything clearly on the way from the airport, even though there were lights everywhere. As we drove along, someone would single out to me a famous building, an important street, a park, a bridge that when built was thought to be a landmark. In a daydream I used to have, all these places were points of happiness to me; all these places were lifeboats to my small drowning soul. I would imagine myself entering and leaving them, and just that — entering and leaving over and over again — would see me through a bad feeling I did not have a name for. I only knew it felt a little like sadness but heavier than that. Now that I saw these places, they looked ordinary, dirty, worn down by so many people entering and leaving for them in real life, and it occurred to me that I could not be the only person in the world for whom they were an item of imagination. It was not my first struggle with the disappointment of reality and it would not be my last. The underclothes that I wore were all new, bought for my journey, and as I sat in the car, moving this way and that to get a good view of the sights before me, I was reminded of how uncomfortable the new can make you feel.

I got into an elevator (%$&), something I had never done before, and then I was in an apartment and seated at a table, eating food just taken from a refrigerator. In the place I had just come from, I always lived in a house, and my house did not have a refrigerator in it.

Everything I was experiencing — the ride in the elevator, being in an apartment, eating day- old food that had been stored in a refrigerator — was such a good idea that I could imagine

I would grow used to it and like it very much. But at first, it was all so new that I had to smile with my mouth turned down at the corners. I slept deeply that night, but it wasn't because I was happy and comfortable — quite the opposite; it was because I didn't want to take in anything else.

That morning, the morning of my first day, the morning that followed my first night, was a sunny morning. It was not the sort of bright yellow sun making everything lift up at the edges, almost in fear, that I was used to, but a pale yellow sun, as if the sun had grown weak from trying too hard to shine; but still it was sunny. That was nice and made me miss my homeless. And so, seeing the sun, I got up and put on a dress, a gay dress made out of bright-colored cloth — the same sort of dress that I would wear if I were at home and starting out for a day in the country. It was all wrong. The sun was shining but the air was cold. It was the middle of January, after all. But I did not know that the sun could shine and the air remain cold; no one had ever told me. What a feeling that was! How can I explain? Something I had always known — the way I knew my skin was the brown color of a nut rubbed repeatedly with a soft cloth, or the way I knew my own name — something I took completely for granted, "the sun is shining, the air is warm" — was not so. I was no longer in a tropical area. This realization now entered my life like a flow of water dividing previously dry and solid ground, creating two banks, one of which was my past — so familiar and predictable that even my unhappiness then made me happy now just to think of it; the other my future, an empty gray page, a cloudy sea image on which rain was falling and no boats were in sight. I was no longer in a tropical area and I felt cold inside and out, the first time such a feeling had come over me.

Still growing

May 10th, 2010   by Connor

FOR the third quarter in a row, America's economy has expanded. During the first three months of 2010, the economy grew at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 3.2%. That's down from the 5.6% performance in the fourth quarter of last year, but constitutes a good showing by developed nation standards. Real output is still about 1.2% below the previous peak, which suggests that GDP could finally hit a new high by the end of next quarter.

Personal consumption helped to drive output forward, rising at the fastest pace since the beginning of 2007. Consumption of durable goods, in particular, boosted growth. Sustained domestic demand will be a necessity if recovery is to continue after government stimulus runs dry. The picture darkens somewhat when investment is considered. Slower growth in the first quarter relative to the fourth quarter of last year is largely attributable to a reduced contribution from private inventory changes (which tend to power output in the first few quarters of recovery). In the fourth quarter, inventory adjustments accounted for 3.8 percentage points of the 5.6% growth performance. That fell to 1.6 percentage points in the first quarter—half of the economy's growth. Setting aside inventory changes, the underlying economy remains fairly weak, much as it was late last year.

It's weak despite the growth in consumption thanks to other major drags on activity. Real estate is the primary culprit. Nonresidential structures knocked 0.4 percentage points off growth while residential investment subtracted another 0.3 percentage points. The residential component represented a significant deterioration from the previous three months. Net exports were also a drag, as growth in imports outpaced exports. And the positive impact of increased federal government activity was entirely outweighed, and then some, by declining contributions from state and local governments. Half of a percentage point was stripped from output thanks to the contractionary impact of state and local government cutbacks.

The overall picture is mixed. Growth is clearly better than no growth, and the improving contribution from domestic consumption is a welcome sign. But there are real concerns with the composition of output. The boost from inventory changes will continue to fade, as will the help from federal stimulus. State and local budget crunches will continue to be a drag, as will net exports, so long as America's economy remains unbalanced. Activity faces stiff headwinds from the nonresidential and residential construction sectors. And meanwhile, real disposable personal income was flat from the fourth quarter to the first quarter. Absent income growth, domestic demand will be unable to power a strong recovery. And it's worth remembering that while the economy was expanding at a 3.2% pace in the first quarter, it was also generating just a 162,000 increase in nonfarm payroll employment.

America's economy looks healthy relative to those in Europe, and forecasts for a 2010 growth performance of 3% or so seem reasonable. But output is well short of trend, is growing slower than in previous recoveries, and remains uncertain. There is much more to be done.
