Book review- From Seasons to Spiders

The natural word has always been a mystery, and people have always made up stories to explain it. Some of the oldest and greatest of thes myths came from Greece. In this book, we`ll look at four of them and find out how the world happened-from seasons to spiders.

Imaginative stories keep students turning the pages-the key words and phraese, and the exercises keep their English on the right track.

There are 2000 most-common English words while introducing essential new vocabulary.  

I learn some words in this book. It is a interesting book, and it is easy to be read. We can learn English by relaxing way.

Collect books

A lot of people like to collect and save books so that they can read the ones that they love over and over again. And then maybe one day show their kids the books that they loved. It is good for children to save books. They always fill with curiosities, so they can pick up books and look for answers from them. I think that there are three main reasons why people save books: keeping books that they love, saving rare books, making money. First, if you can keep books that you love, it could become one of your hobbies. For example, I collect and save books, so I am supposed to have several copies that I love the best. Because I must read that book over and over, it is easy to make book become older. Every time I see it that I can get more meaning from it. Now, it is my hobby to save books.

To be parents

I think parents can be classified into two categories: rude and polite. The first group consists of parents whose attitudes are rude. When they come into our cram school, they just say the name that they want to pick up the children and no greet. Once we call them, they turn around and walk out of the cram school. In contrast to the rude parents in the first group, the parents in the second group are polite. Everyone notices them because they always say hello to us first when they come into the cram school. And then ask us to call their children`s name. When we tell them about their children`s informations, they usually appreaciate to us. They make us feel so worm. Then, we are glad to treat their children nicely than another group. Although we can`t do anything to the children whose parents are rude. But we won`t do something good actively. And because of those parents, the children won`t know what manner is. This situation is not good for our children. So if you want what your children are to be, you have to be that kind of parents.

My friends, coworkers

When I was into this company, I knew many foreigners. Although I was scare of talking to them, I still tried to chat with them. Because I hadn`t practice my English long time, I would like to improve my ability. Then, I was able to have closer friendships with my foreign coworkers. For example, initially I joined this cram school, I made friend with a girl who came from South African. Because she taught English in our cram school, we used to work together. Sometimes we went to scenic spots together on weekends. I spoke English with her, and she used to improve my English a lot. Even though she went back, we sometimes keep in touch with each other. After that, my supervisor knew that I am interested in English. I know I have to improve myself, so my supervisor helped me to ask for exchanging language with them. I got more opportunities to have conversations with foreigners. I think conversations make friendly atmosphere among people.Five years ago, I was into this cram school. My supervisor told me that don`t treat them well because they wouldn`t treat you with wholeheartedly. So I had a stereotype about foreigners, I didn`t know how to get along with them. But the second example that let me know that is so wrong. She is a girl from Britain. I exchanged language with her, so we went out often. One time our coworker, a Chinese girl, broke up with her boy friend. We hung around and stayed with her. She gives consolations to this girl. When she got drunk, Alice took care of her. Even more because she was worried about the girl, she took her home. Then, she walked back to her own house by herself at midnight. I was so surprise that she did this. But she just said,” you are my friends and we have to take care each other”. In general, foreigners are friendly to Taiwanese. From my experience, a person who treats others well. They will get the same things from others. Wherever you stay, I think this kind of rule that won`t change. If you want to get, you have to devote.

BOOK REVIEW-Streams of history early civilizations

Gives glimpses of some of the most characteristic features of the countries and peoples in ancient times in the Near East: the early herders; those living in the two great river valleys-the Nile and the Tigro-Euphrates; and the Jews and Phoenicians living between these two valleys.
There is a boat on the cover. We see no harrows or steel plows such as we have today, and the grain that is being sown, we call wheat, barley, or millet, but they call it corn.
 From this book,I know that the Egyptians gave the world in its youthtime its first lessons in writ-ing, in paper making, in building, in carving statues, in measuring, and more than any other people of the olden time, taught the belief that the soul never dies

The man, Hu Tsung-hsien, is the main criminal. And the other one is called by the main criminal. I am so curious why Hu Tsung-hsien did this thing, and why Chu Ya-tung would promise to help. Don`t they know they already broke the law? Don`t they know they would hurt others?

News-H7N9

Taiwan`s scientists can develop of a vaccine by ourselves. They can make the medicine. It is a good thing because it`s mean that we don`t need to depend on other countries.Taiwan's government has assembled a task force to work on an H7N9 vaccine and will convene a meeting with domestic manufacturers April 12 to discuss mass production of the vaccine.We wont`t cooperate with China in the effort to develop and manufacture the vaccine. Taiwan has two way to get the vaccine. One way is to skip the World Health Organization to develop the virus on its own.But this way may take more time. It could take eight to 11weeks. If we can get the vaccine strain directly from the United States or the WHO, it can save more time.

Book review-總裁獅子心

I think president Yang can choose the correct direction on his life way because he understands himself enough. He knows his advantage and disadvantage very clearly. And he knows what he can suit or not. I think this point is that why he has such an important achievement. Many people always don`t know what they want. Neither do I. We always follow the society and parents` anticipation, so we don`t know what we want. But you can`t deny that understanding yourselves is the most important thing walking toward success. This book mentioned ‘leader’ this main person. Everyone has chances to be a leader. To be a leader, you should have professional knowledge and ability. You need to treat others kindly and care about your employees. You have to realize what they want.

 What is love? We devote every part of us. We don`t bother about the fault that your love does. We change ourselves for your love. Is that love? If you are betrayed, can you really change your mind? Everyone hopes get balance from love and without love. Actually everyone is afraid of alone. You maybe hate eating alone, and seeing movies alone. Or when you want to talk with someone, no one wants to listen. So some people start to say something what others want to listen and do something what others want to do, they just want others able to stay with them. But if they own everything, they start to be themselves. Then, they don`t dare to give everything up. We also hope to get balance. No matter how long you can live. Living serious at every moment is the most important.

Book review-The mind of Billy Milligan

Billy is a man who has twenty four characters. It is like that there is a social in Billy`s body. They have different characters and do their jobs. Because there lived many people in his body, they had different sexes, personality, accent, intelligence quotient, age. He had multiple personality disorder because he got wound in his childhood. Especially he was raped long term. Because he can`t handle, he decide to evade and pretend to be others. He didn`t have intimate friends, so he has seriously anxious. When he had some problems and he couldn’t solve them, he used to create another personality. I didn’t agree with Billy`s behavior, but his experience was pitiful. Because people didn`t agree with Billy, he started to create different personality again. I am disappointed about the social. We should survey our social. These gotten hurt people might be next Billy. Those mistreated children need our concert and crowd support them.

Book review-The secret

Book review: In this book, a man shared his student`s story. His student is a gay. He wrote a letter to his teacher, but the letter is full with misfortune. His coworkers pushed him from their group. When he walked on the street, he was bullied by others. When he performed, he was also laughed by people. He encountered all of these just because he is a gay. But his teacher told him, he had to focus on his interests instead of. After that the situation was getting better. Those people who bullied and laughed him were gone. His performance was successful. He improved his life because he was no longer to think those things that he didn’t want. We always like to complain. But complaining just brings us more complaining. We often feel tired about life, and feel suffering about jobs. We think everything that we have is for granted. We think others should help us. We totally forget to appreciate. Why don’t we start to cherish everything? When you start to appreciate, you will have good feeling. When you have good feeling, you won’t be bothered by bad things. In your mind everything is wonderful. Then you will attract more good things.

Movie review

Hotel Transylvania”, I saw this movie during the new year vacation with my family. It is a cartoon. The content is that there is a special the –five- stars hotel and its customers are all kinds of monsters and ghosts. And they can be themselves in the hotel. The owner of the hotel is a vampire. One day, he invited many friend s to celebrate his daughter`s birthday. But one venturesome boy who is a human, he burst into their world and he fell in love with the vampire`s daughter. The owner was worried about it, so he had to make the boy out of their world. This movie wants to express that although they are monsters, they are still kind. They would like to make friends with human. No matter what you are, who you are, what you are like, you still have the right of love.

Personal journal2

During New Year vacation, we went to the show of Doraemon. There are many people and there is so crowded. I love Doraemon. So does my daughter. There are not only many people but also many different Doraemons. We stood in line for a while. Finally, we went in “100 years before the birth of Doraemon”. When we saw those Doraemons, we felt exciting. There are storie next to every Doreamon. We took the pictures again and again. But in this exhibition, we always can see others` morality. Doreamons all display on the stages and there are the signs “don`t climb and don`t touch”. But we saw some parents put their children on the stage for taking the pictures. Just like there is no the sign. Even we told the children that hi you can`t be there. Their parents ignored us. At that time, I told my daughter that you can`t be like those people. We have to obey the rules for portecting things. Education is important from children.
