Competition For Studying Aboard

As the competition in the world is increasing, people are forced to gain more advantages to succeed in their works. People who study aboard think they can gain some extra advantages from their foreign education. In fact, they indeed have benefits after graduating from foreign schools.

First of all, people studying aboard must go to the countries where the specific terrain of profession is preoccupying in the world. Students want to learn the most advanced knowledge and skills in these countries and take the advantage of it when they return to their home countries. Because their knowledge is regarded better than people who study in the home country, the companies are likely to give them better pay. In my country, Taiwan, for example, people who study aboard can get more salary and opportunities to promotion than in the local universities.

Further, when students who study aboard have to counter the foreign culture and the gap of language, they become stronger in mind and more adaptation to different environments. These factors become advantages in their following lives. In this era, companies need their employees to conduct business in any countries and cultures. As a result, students who fit these needs are those studying aboard. This is another reason why companies want to pay more for them.

However, studying aboard is not always a panacea for success. Students also have to pay attention on studying and researching in order to acquire advanced knowledge. Students who study aboard just for a certificate would not have great accomplishment, after their bosses find they are useless except for a glittered degree certificate. After all, there is an old word, which is no rose without thorns. Studying is not an easy task, and studying aboard especially difficult, so students who have the chance to go aboard and study must cherish the chance and do their best on studying.

How Do Children Become Men?

There are some differences between children and adults, or there would not these two different words. Although the human society has changed a lot for thousands of years, the difference never changes. In the adults' world, there are many challenges around them, so they are forced to compete with other adults and take many responsibilities in order to survive. Therefore, the essential gap is the responsibilities.

When a child has the ability and willing to take a responsibility, he is moving a step to the adult world. After specific times of this process, he will become an adult. When people are old enough to be considered adults, if they fear to take the responsibilities given by the society they just look like adults and however, they are still children in their mind. The military service, for example, is a mandatory duty in my country; however, some people who do all they can to avoid this duty are not thought real men.

The responsibility is so crucial, that it is a terrible catastrophe when people forget them. The society loses its orders in that situation where people run through the traffic light and students do not attend schools and workers are absent in the companies and governments do not function. As the result, children should understand the responsibilities of an adult during growing up. Fortunately, we can teach our children through our education system and family. In addition to understand these things, children also have to do them in the real world. If they do not, they behave just like ignorant people.

There are many responsibilities existing in the society, for example, caring about other people including your family and friends, helping those who need your help, fostering the weak, complying with laws. Some urge people to help others, while some ask people do their own duties well. In summary, they all want the world good and peace without violence. When I was an elementary school student, my teacher ever told me no matter what I do when I grow up, do not do things which hurt others and break the laws. I still remember now.

A Country I Love to GO

There are many beautiful resorts in the world; however, I would like to visit China, the one of the oldest country in the history and the fast growing economy in the world. China has two things in which I am interested. First, there are many antiquities there, and many of them are invaluable for all humans. Second, the economy in China has increased in an amazing speed; as this result, I want to see what miracle is happening.

In the first ten days, I prefer a historic trip. The capital of China, Beijing, is an ancient city, which has established since several centuries ago. The place which I love to visit is the Great Wall, which can be seen by the astronauts in the space. Moreover, the Palace is also in my list because I want to see how the empires live luxuriously. Anyway, when I am there, I could feel the atmosphere of an old country through everything I see.

In the next ten days, I want to see the development of economy in China. Although I could not go through the country to see what happens everywhere, I could visit the most important economic city, Shanghai, where the economy is growing every second. I could understand the life of the wealthy Chinese people who represent the future life of other Chinese people in the future. Because they are richer than others, the ways they live are the examples that others will imitate in some years.

After all, the old dragon has wielded its power since its leader opened the economy to other countries. The free economy brings wealth for people in China, so if I do not understand the country, I might lose some advantages to compete with other people in the world. China is always a mysterious country with five thousand years history and nearly two billion people. The potential market and business are unfathomable.

I Don't Smoke!

This is an era of freedom, that is everyone has right to do anything without breaching the laws. However, when people try to do anything that they want, they should take few minutes to think about if the thing they will do will become other people's burden or not. If that will inroad other people's right, people should not do it. Therefore, no matter the government enacts the rule to limit smoking in public, people who smoke have to learn to respect others.

It is a hell for people who do not smoke to sit near smoking people. The smell of smoke is nasty, and the components of the smoke are harmful for human respiratory system. They will increase the rate to having lung cancer. Unfortunately, the rate is higher for people who do not smoke but inhale other's smoke than people who smoke. As a result, it is very unfair to let people smoke in public. Other people need clean space where there is fresh air to breath without worry of healthy danger.

In the other side, people who smoke also assert that the rule will abandon their right. They even propone the civil right in the Constitution to prove that they have to protect their smoking right. However, they forget the spirit of democracy and Constitution is based on a freedom avoid of breaching other people's right. Moreover, they still have right to smoke. For example, many restaurants have provides a smoking area for smoking people in which the air does not circulate to other area in the restaurants. With the isolated air condition, they can smoke and do not bother other people.

After all, before the government enacted the rule, people who don't smoke had to tolerate smoking people. Even although they hated the smoke of cigarette, they bore that smell because they showed their veneration of smoking people. Since the rule has enacted, the smoking people have to respect others. Moreover, for their and their children's health, if they could quit smoking, it is the best thing.

Do Children Need Computer?

Children born in this technological society contact much information and face competition around the world. Although children in different ages have different needs, I think a computer probably is the best way for children to initially access the cyber world. Because a computer has various functions, including surfing internet, learning computer skills, and practicing typing, children can benefit from the computer, although it still has some drawbacks. However, the sum of advantages and disadvantages is positive.

In the bright side, children can learn computer languages, C, C++, Java, with computers. These languages play a significant role in their following life, especially if they prefer to devote in technology companies. Even though those do not work in tech companies, they will have high chance to use these skills to complete their assignments in schools. Moreover, the life around us is full of computers; as the result of this, it is better to let children familiar with the operation of a computer. When they play computer games, they facilitate the using of a computer unconsciously. Nothing can be compared with learning in playing.

However, the biggest drawback of a computer is that overly using computer causes people spend too much time on using computer. An obvious extreme example is children who play computer games too zealously stay up every night and finally feel illness. It is a general rule that when people do a thing too over, there is something wrong happening. If children can not control themselves, they could fail in school works.

After all, parents of children have the responsibility to watch their children and prevent them become addicted in computer. As long as children properly use computer, the problem will be solved. However, this needs adults' help, because most children have less self-continent in many things, not only using computers. Except of this problem, we still can not neglect the merits of a computer. In fact, I think there are many advantages of a computer when children use them in right attitude. Computers will help children grow and understand much knowledge.

What Is The Value Of A Leader?

Team working is a efficient method to solve problems in any organization, for profit or nonprofit. In a team, there is a leader who targets the goal, supervises the working schedule, cares about teammates, and holds a party if the team could meet the goal. In order to facilitate the work in a team, the team leader must have qualified personalities, like charisma, vision, coordination between people, and of course, leadership.

On the other hand, the team members just follow their boss's commands to tilt the goal and do their own business. The risk of a team member is smaller than of the leader, because the responsibility of the success or fault is on the leader's shoulder. As the result, many people prefer to be one of the team members, not the leader. However, they forget the position is a opportunity to wield their power to present their ability; especially when the goal is difficult, the value of the people who are leaders easily glimmers and is saw by everyone. They could surge their position and wealth, after the teams they lead would succeed.

On the dark side, when the team fails to its goal, the payback is also considerable. Of course, as people could hold the most fruits after harvesting, they also might have to lose the most of their own when losing. The leader is always the target of critics after a failing. Moreover, even the team successfully completes its mission, the leader has put most of his effort to accomplish the job, maybe ten times more than sum of the other teammates. Considering the situation, the job of a leader is not as easy as other people admire.

What is the value of a leader? A leader can have a high position in a team; therefore the vision is far and clear, too. To be a member, people might understand their parts of tasks and have no idea what others do. A leader, opposite, has to oversea all the things during the working, not only the progress of schedule but members. If people are confident with their abilities, they must seize the chance to be a leader.

Query A Younger Person

When people who lack some aspects of knowledge have an aggressive inclination of learning, they gather information from anywhere, including books, internet, and people who know those things. These people include younger people than theirs. Because the purpose of them is to understand information, the age of the people is not an important problem as long as they have the knowledge and want to share what they know.

People who do not ask younger people have the preconception which tells them the younger people have few experience than they do. However, in this modern world where the information is increasing and renovating faster than any era of human history, professional people have their expertise in their terrains because it takes much time to absorb whole information in the specific profession. According to this, it is very possible that people can not know everything in the world, at least not detail. Therefore, any smart person might have questions in some aspects of knowledge that he is not familiar with, and he might meet a man knowing the knowledge is younger than he is.

Beside, the young people usually are eager to gather new information. When people are getting older and want to know what is going on in the world, they probably have to ask their children or younger people they know. For example, my mother did not have known about the searching engines, named Yahoo or Google, on the internet until I told her how to gather information from the internet. Actually, many things young people think are common; nonetheless, some elder people do not know their name and how they work.

After all, because knowledge is about all but people's age, we should not ask questions after considering people are younger or not. People who cross the barrier of age can harbor the universe in their mind. In fact, when people politely query other people questions, I think no one would disincline to answer those questions.

Art In The Tech

The world needs different types of people to construct a society with various values. The artist who performs their ideas through the drawing, sculpture, and other kinds of methods give people the satisfaction of mind. On the other hand, the scientists who delve into researches of innovational inventions and uncovered discoveries provide people the satisfaction of curiosity and convenience. If we lost one of them, we could be like a patient who lacks some essential nutrition feels ill.

People living in a society where there is no art would lack their mind and feel bored and weary, because the art exists around us and resembles the spirit of thoughts at that time. Even the high technology instruments have art factors. For example, the outline of a cell phone which looks smooth and clear-cut, just lke a piece of artwork is designed to fit the shape of human hand. Moreover, no matter what products we use now, they are amalgamated with art. In fact, the art is not the pots or pictures in the museums.

However, there would be a disaster, if the scientists have never existed, we might live in the Stone Age. When we use our cell phones to talk to a friend living far away or prepare a project by a computer, we have to thank those scientists who devote themselves and even their lifes into researches. After several times failings, there would be an amazing invention enhancing people’s living.

When we think about the contribution of scientists, we can not forget the artists. Because many smart tools in the present consists not only the capacities of their functions but the cool design of their shapes. People do not cherish a product which has very powerful functions but looks very ugly. Therefore, a successful product has to blend the technology into art in order to catch customer's eyes.

Why not handy work instead of machine

The most difference between human beings and animals is utilizing of tools, because we are so smart that understand how to facilitate to work through various tools. Therefore, I prefer using these tools or machines to perform my works. They decrease working time, increase the efficiency and ease my effort.

After the revolution of industry in the nineteenth century, there have been many inventions making our life convenient. Some things which took a lot of time and effort to complete just need a few to do. For example, before the invention of trains and cars, it took several weeks to cross the American continent; however, we can use less than a week to do the same thing and even less time, if we take the plane.

Further, as all kinds of machines have been invented, we can enjoy efficient working processes. With the efficient processes, we can have more time to do other thing, particularly leisure time, which never happened before because of working. For example, the labor workers who might need three hours to knit a unit of clothes; nonetheless, it only takes 3 minutes for a textile machine, a loom. The boss of the factory can make more profit than before without additional time of producing. As the result, the workers can have free time on the weekend.

Not only do the machines benefit the manufacturing industrial but also individual. Take house-clean for example. In the past, when people wanted to clean their floor at home, they had to use brooms and much time. However, they can clean the floor by vacuum machines which can suck almost everything on the floor, and more importance is that it takes less time and effort.

When we have so many machines to help us perform tasks, we should enjoy the benefit of it.
