In 2060

After 50years, I think many things will certainly
change but not like the gap between 50years ago
and now. I mean, of course there will be advances
in every aspect but we have already entered the
most advanced stage in the historical and industrial
fields for the past decades. therefore I don't think
future people will be using the flying car or timemachine.
They will enjoy advanced science and industry in
a simillar to todays level. Also, i think they will enjoy
the art or culture more than present people. As time
goes by, people will become more lonely and cold-hearted,
so they will probably desire more about warm feeling
or humanistic feelings or emotions represented by
old traditional culture. However, I don't believe love
will disappear in the future in human society.
In conclusion, i think the future people will be want to
enjoy more their original or old fashion memory in their
heart and actually they will be using advanced tools
and means for their comfortable life.

* Why difficult to learn the second language

I think the second language is more difficult to
learn, compared with the first language
(mother tongue) because language is different
from knowlege or study. It means learning
lauguage needs 'adaptation' process. By the
time we learn second language, we have
already masterd the first language so we
get in trouble in our mind because we should
give up the easy way of communicating in the
first language and also we choose the hard
way of using the second language.

My roommate is Chinese student who is fluent
in speaking English. I asked her "Why do you
think it is difficult to learn a second language?"
She said that Asian people have already built
the structure of grammar in their brain naturally,
but she thinks most people probably can handle
these problems by studying hard. However,
the important thing is Asian people have totally
different cultural background, so they have
difficulties in understanding the foreign language
in the emotional aspects as well.

In conclusion, I thinks we have to speak and
communicate with our own native language,
and try to use the second language as much
as possible to master it.

* Provide healthy enviroment for our children

I think we can not solve the enviroment problem
without cooperation. The goverment should deal
with this problem. However, while we are
complaining to the government policies, how
about raising trees in our garden to try to protect
the environment in our village? Not to develop
the forest or sea is the good way to protect the
environment. however, it has no realilty when
we see the current situation. In my opinion ,
planting a lot of trees would be a good way to
provide a pure and healthy enviromnent for
our children. The environment becomes polluted
by people through their consumption of too much
energies and resources. Therefore, leading a more
humble life is also important to protect the
environment. This opinion can be sounds like
too basic to you however, I am sure about the
trees might be children's good friend ..^^

* Easy road or Hard road

I agree with the opinion that we have to
choose hard road as a student. It means
we have to study hard when we want to
achieve a certain purpose(goal), which
can be our dream, of course. However ,
sometimes I can't understand why I
should really study hard tolearn because
sometimes we can see some people who
succeed without any hard work. However,
when I listen to older people's advice,
they usually said I have to try hard in
everything not only to be be successful
or lead a comfortable life but also get
a proud of yourself. Now I strongly
believe in their advice.

My major is design. As you know , Disign has
various fields to be applied, such as architecture,
jewerly and fine art and so on. Nowadays we are
living ,surrounded by so many different design
ideas. If you want to be good at designing, you
have to be a creative person. If you are not a
creative person but you want to be have a get
a creative brain, design would be one of the best
choices to develop your creativity. Also i want to
recommend to you that never to give up any idea
you have in mind. Also,when you have a free time,
look around you and think about many things
and try to find out what you want to see.
This is a desirable attitude for somebody who
wants to be a designer ^^*

The importance of writing well


I think writing is the best way to have someone know about my one's own thinking or opinion. A well written writing (article or letter) has a power of moving someone's mind. Thesedays, 'Writing' is considered as one of the most important and effective skill for communication.

I want to tell you about my childhood memory about a letter. When i was 9-years-old ,I had a fight with my best friend. It was my first fight with the friend, therefore I really didn't know what should I do that time. Actually, both of us had a fault. That's why I wanted to apolozy to her and to forgive her. However I was afraid to face and speak to her. Also I was really not sure whether I could can I explain my own thinking exactly in front of her. So I decided to write a letter to her. That was my first time to write a such a long paragragh(letter) by my self with honesty. I remember I even showed the letter to my mother to know it was good or not.

After all, I could recieve a reply letter from her. Still now, I talk with that friends about our first precious writing. I believe the letter solves our problems and misunderstanding about each other. :)

Enjoy your summer time!


Manny student said Iowa City is little bit

boring than other county but if you want

to join the Iowa life, getting out to your

room. I think Iowa City is very beautiful

and peaceful. Therefore the rest of time

when you finish your homework, enjoy

your Iowa life. Also I heard about summer’s

temperature which is really high so I think

care about our healthy is very important

either. For instant, drinking enough water

and never forget sun block cream..

and so on. However, most important thing

is improving our English skill. ^-^
