1. What does Adora say about adults listening to young people? She said a point about that "even your an adult, you shouldn't be afraid of making a really ridiculous dream about something as a child". And that sometimes adult might have to have that kind of dream to actually sees the true side of the fact. Also that "Children and adults should learn from each others." 2. What do you think about her argument? I think is a really nice speech. All the ideas that she came up are those ideas that adults will never actually realized what they already lost. Its all from a little 12 years old girl's eyes of this girl. (but she is super intelligent though.) 3. What parts do you agree with? Why?

What does the good citizen look like ?

"What does a citizen looks like" this is such a good question. first, we have to make clear what is it meant by a citizen. Citizen are people who belong to a group or a country. For example, I am born in Taiwan, so I am a citizen of Taiwan and native of Taiwan. But their are some different situation too. Like if you want to come Taiwan to be a teacher, the country only gives you the acceptant that you can work here legally. But if you don't have an ARC card, you must leave Taiwan after few weeks, and that will be like you go on a vacation and go back to your country cause the holiday is over. And this process in US is called Naturalization. which is the same thing that I said. So, basically a citizen is a person that legally been allow to be a group or a country. We can say we are citizen of HIS. Cause this is our school and also we belong here for studying. Here are some of my personal thinking of citizenship and citizen. For being a citizen of school, I think there are ...

Or even sterotype them, not all the athletes got bad grades, and is not all not stylish person don't know art. That is really hurtsful to people who is actually like this.

What do we lean in today's citizenship class..

In today's citizenship class, we learn about school's policy, a country citizen, and what is the rules in class. We know really well about the school policy, so I don't want to say much about that now. But what I do want to say is about the country citizen, a country citizen have different type of it. There is native, and the people who transfered. Native means you born in the country, and is legal in it. The transfered one is you born in other country, but you don't feel like living in that place, so you go to the other country and get a job, and become a legal citizen of it. For example, I am born in Taiwan, so I am a native Taiwan citizen. For the rules of the class, we got something written down below. 1. No talking out of turn - means we speak in turns. 2. Raise your hand before you talk. 3. Focus one the topic, pay attention. 4. No communicating quietly in class even the topic is toward the topic we are talking about.

I am a citizen of

Family - Cause I am a part of my family. HIS - I am a part of student of HIS, and I do what the school does. Taiwan - I am a part of Taiwan's citizen too, because I am born in Taiwan. HsinChu - I live in HisnChu for a long time, so I am a citizen of Hsin Chu too.

Why my life is difference with the Africa's childern?

Image
Why my life is difference with the Africa's childern? In my personal view, I think the different part is the technology. Because of technology we can have a lot of information that we want. And we can play games, Yahoo Messenger can chat with people that is really far from you. I also think money is a very big reason, sometimes you have skills but you can't found a good boss or leader just because you are poor. That is really unfair for them. The government is the most important one. Some of the country in Africa, their government keep money in his own pocket. And create some ridicules goals. Some of them killing people, and some of them using the money that suppose to be for the people in their country and buy the arms. And then they control people's life, make them work, and buy more arms to attack other countries.

Sudan 'has 6,000 child soldiers'

In Sudan, there are 6,000 of child has been caught and trained to become the child soldiers. The report says, "There are us many as 6,000 child soldiers, some as young as 11 years old, the war-torn region of Darfur." Can you imagine that a 11 years old child are fighting on battle field killing each other and destroy cities? They are supposed to be in school playing and learning. Just such like the movie "Blood diamond". Children is innocent about everything, they believe in everything those adult said. Those children have grown up knowing nothing but war. What a terrible thing!! Who: The children in Sudan Where: Sudan What: Children in Sudan was recruited to be soldiers. When: 22 December 2008 Why: I think there are two points, one is that the adult in Sudan has been killed a lot and another is children is innocent about everything, so they don't know which is wrong or right and easy to be controlled.

Stronger Kenbrena

We could us the social science of geography, economics and sociology to make Kenbrena become a more stronger country. I think we could increase human capital, financial capital and natural captial to make Kenbrena turn into powerful country. In terms of human capital, every race should be harmonious, giving Redar and Saknich more education and political opportunity. About increasing financial capital, Kenbrena is rich in Petroleum, coal and cash crop could be economics background. For the natural capital, the Kenbrena hold large of mountain, river and forest, making use of those resources to go for strength to strength.

Question of Kenbrena

Image
* What are some possible reasons for some groups in Kenbrena to be friendly to each other while other groups do not get along? The reason that other groups in Kenbrena will be friendly with each other is because they have to stay alive even they don't like the other race. And because the connect each other so each group has their own work. When every one get to work, all the things started. Basically, they help each others. * Is there a social group above the makes you think of yourself or your family? Yes, I think so. For my self I think is Talese.
