review about my EG

Time flying and the end is on the way! But what going on is my English is really confusing and I don't know how to describe it. At some parts, I think i have improved a little, such as the ability of communication with other students, on the other hand, i still feel my english should be improved a lot, because even now, i can not talk fluently with students from other countries.
But think it sincerely, I think during this semester i am lucky to know BB, because his oral English makes me feel like going to America. What is more, his style is really different and he is really kind. More than this, I am really happy to make friends with my classmates.

Environmental Challenges of the 21th Century.

According to Juniper (2007), "our planet is utterly unique - a blue, white and green gem suspended in the gaping black emptiness of space" (p.8, para1), and some of us would think we are really lucky to live on this precious earth. But he also mentioned that "The Earth could so easily have remained like there other lifeless worlds" (p.8, para4), so we should also take care of our earth. Let us look at what our earth is now: first, as Trombly (2007) mentioned "There is limitless and practically useful energy anywhere you stand or sit" and "From the threat of global warming to the decline of endangered species, environmental issues are now at the forefront of the human agenda - and not a second too soon.” We can see now the environmental problem is really critical. For example, according to Evans (2007), CO2 is the main cause of global warming, but in our daily life, we know that the fire of fuel and polymer even other things would produce CO2. Hence, one solution to reduce the speed of global warming or solve this problem is to make some measures: set up the opinion of global warming in human minds, do what people can do in their daily life to contribute their energy and build up some green organization to reduce this problem. Firstly, knowing the reason for global warming is really necessary. Starting from the basic behavior, we should build up some activities to propagate that CO2 is the main culprit of global warming and some procession would produce it, such as the fire of coal, oil or plant, and then let people know the bad effects of global warming. At the same time, we should also point out that forest can make many good effects on reducing the amount of CO2 in the world. After doing these, most people would know the meaning of reducing the global warming. Hence, making people knowing the reason for global warming and the meaning of reducing it is really necessary for us to do. Secondly, if every factory in the world produces a little less CO2, the increasing rate of CO2 would reduce a lot. We can see that our world is an industrial world now and there exist many industrial factories. If every person in factories did what they can do for our environment, such as using advanced equipment for refreshing the air before letting them out, the temperature would reduce or at least remain balanced. As a consequence of contributions from factories, the warming phenomena would have a great change. Lastly, some behaviors from governments are really necessary for solving this problem. Greenhouse gases are emitted as a result of the energy we use by driving and using electricity and through other activities that support our quality of life like growing food and raising livestock. If governments build up some organization for our environment, such as organization for planting trees, green fuels corporation and so on, and then encourage some volunteers to join in them to produce more plants and produce some green fuels rather than coal or oil... then our world would become green in some years later. In summary, the government should take some above necessary measures to solve this problem. In conclusion, it is possible to reduce the global warming with the support from every part in the whole society. The world is our family and protecting it is protecting ourselves, so what we do for our earth is really important. Reference Juniper,T.(2007).Saving planet Earth. London: Collins.

the suitable method for my country--China

With the development of the economy in China, the pollution of the environment is becoming a critical problem. Facing these wastes, whether the government of China should choose landfills, incinerators or “zero waste” is really hard to decide. But considering the environment and economic factors, the government of China might consider “zero waste" as a better method to solve this problem. But what is "zero waste"? "Zero waste is a grassroots movement from local authorities and people,” so some materials can be recycled (collins, 2002).
Comparing with other methods, "zero waste" makes the materials recycled and saves the limited source for our human beings, so it is really an economic development besides of the environmental conscience. More than what we can expect, It is a quiet revolution where non-profit community groups are turning waste into jobs, so some person would make life in this way. It is true that "zero waste” may not be achievable, but if we get anywhere near, then the benefit for health and jobs will be enormous. In contrast, land filling not only wastes sources, but also pollutes the environment, so it will indirectly make bad effects on our health and daily life. What is worse, land filling is also an uneconomical behavior due to the loss of the recyclable materials. Hence, we should choose "zero waste policy" rather than land fillings or incinerators due to environmental protection, source savings, source recycling and even economy development in China.

review about the Saving Nature,But Only for Man

As we all know that, we could catch fish in the river with our hand in a few years ago, but now we even can not catch any fish using fishnet. What happens and what lead to this phenomena? Maybe some person would say that the pollution is really critical now and that is the reason for it, but i want to ask what lead to pollution and who is the main cast in this behavior. I think the report, named Saving Nature,But only for Man, gives us the answer. The most part of reasons for the pollution to the nature comes from our human.
As the report maintioned, now most people like to show that they are lovers of mother nature, but it also indicates that we have make the pollution to our mother nature. In this report, we can see that it is calling people to learn more about nature and leading people to know that nature is not so benignity. What is more, we can see that we should take care of nature, not the nature charge us, so we should make balance with nature, then we can get our kind nature back. But what should we do for our nature in the report maintioned?
In the report we can infer that we should know which side is more meaningful such as between family and owl, we should choose family, so we should take care of the livelihood. And now our fate and that of nature are inextricably bound up, so we should take measures for our nature and balance the against health. What we should do for the threatened atmospheric is on the way for our human to do. The sentimental environmentalists will call some saving nature with a totally wrong frame of mind, so they should build up their new mind and do some thing for our nature.
Green house,Ozone depletion are being the most curious problems , so our human should practice sane environmentalism and do what we can do for our nature.

Comparison and Contrast

A term often used for people who are deeply concerned with the environment is "green".Compare a "green" person's attritude toward consumption with that of a person who is not "green".

As all of us know, with the development of the economy and technology, the environment issues become more and more concerned. So towarding this problem, there are two kinds of person now in our daily life: some one that holds the opinion of protecting the environment and the other one not caring our environment very much. In our daily life, we named prier one as "green person "and later as "not green person". There are many differences about the attritude to some issues between them such as on consumption.
It is obvious that forest is the most important thing for nature to protect itself, but non-green persons would pay no attention on this and continue to do what they think right such as hewing trees for their benefits such as hewing trees.On the contrary,green person would do whatever they could to prevent our environment such as planting trees. What is more, most of the green persons would choose plants as their decoration in their house.However,non-green persons would prefer other things. More than that, different person would hold different opinion toward their healthy. It is true that plastic would not only pollute environment but also damage our body, but non-green person would make full use of this "convenent" things and throw rubish everywhere.As the subsequence of the opinion of protecting the environment, green persons would use reusable bags for the environment and their body. Hence, their exist difference between these two kinds of person on consumption toward environment.

Problem--Solution

Describe a serious environmental problem that exists in your home country today and explain how there could be an engineering solution to it.
As all of us know, unsafe drinking water, caused by a lack of sanitation in China's rural areas, is[LYJ1] the worst of the country's environmental problems now. The reason is 96% of China's villages have no sewage treatment, while 89% handle garbage without proper sanitation, what is worse, polluting factories are regarded as the major contributor to the deteriorating environment in rural areas.
So in order to solve this problem in the following time, we should take some measures. It is obvious that the government of china[LYJ2] has not paid the whole[LYJ3] attention on this problem, so they should have a change and[LYJ4] do something on polluting factories, such as punishing them[LYJ5] if they do not deal with the waste[LYJ6] water. According to the reason, we can see[LYJ7] that the government of china should supply some[LYJ8] sanitation for villages to improve the equipment. Only one part trying best is useless, [LYJ9] so all Chinese should also build up the opinion[LYJ10] of preventing our environment and do something we can to protect our environment such as saving the water in our daily life.
It is true that there also exist some other reasons for this problem, but if we solve these main reasons , the water problem would be reduced due to the natural protection, so we should protect our [LYJ11] environment for our daily life.[LYJ12]

Cause--Effect

What are some of the main catalysts for climate change in your home country?

With the development of China, the change of climate in China is also serious, but what the reason is! In order to improve the translation, we have to make some field be roads; in order to meet the demands of energy, we have to dig out our precious and infinited energy resources... So after taking these measures, what problem we are confused is that it leads to many critical results.
As the consequence of building road or disturbing field or logging forests, the earth becomes more absorbing, so the earth becomes sick, so some natural calamities come to us such as flood, drought and so on. What is more, the basic resource is disappearing due to the overuse of resouce, acctually this resource is really important in keeping the balance of climate. As we all know, due to the pollution air production of factories and the fire of fuel, the climate becomes warms, so does it in China.
Above all, the problems due to some special cases are really serious and the goverment of China should take some methods to solve these problems.

my successful stage play

they are parts of my colleagues
As I maintioned before, I am an actor in the Chinese Drama in our hall, so I gave a show just after this Chinese New Year. Even though it is really a long stage play, I have done it quite well, even after curtain call, many friends told me that it was really successful. Upon hearing this message, I felt really happy. Becasue I have done my best and I do not disappoint my colleagues(as you know, chinese drama is really a huge club, and i have more than 70 colleagues). So I think all of you can image my feeling at that time.
However, It is just a stage play, but I should think it again. I think we are all actors in our daily life, so we should do our best to get the best awards.

solving the problem of drinking water in Singapore

As all of us know, now the economy and technology have developed much, but the problem of shorting of drinking water becomes more critical, such as Singapore. So what the government of Singapore should do is really important in solving this problem.
In the past few years, many countries have developed some advanced technological techniques to meet the demands of fresh water, but the cost is more than their benefit. The government of Singapore can imply these techniques, but I think the government should also develop another technique to solve this question. As we know, the drinking water comes from nature,so we should make use of nature or nature similarity.We can use some advanced science and technology to invent a kind of biology material which has the property of redusing the new water from the salt water, so we can put them on the bottom bed of the sea around Singapore, so we can reduse the bad effect of the salt water on the underearth water in Singapore and also help to produce more fresh water and then we can dig some wells to get drinking water.
What is more, the government of Singapore should also call its citizens to build up the opinion of saving water to save the resource.

some fanny story

as an guest in Dongbei

Host: Let's do a meal at my home for you tonight.

Guest: Thank you very much , you are really special due to your keeping open house.

Host: (Feel a little shy, because he do not know the meaning of what the guest said) OK!I will
always keep the door open until the coming of night!


Guest: (Feel really surprised, because now is almost night) Ok. I can manage myself.

Wife of host:(coming in hurry)Hey Hey. Our son has puked just now, and all the dirt things are
on the floor now. Come on, I need your help.


Host: That is ok,let me see.(then the host comes to the other room and the guest follows him)


Host: (After watching the waste with the guest) What can I do for this sick things.


Guest: Thank you. I think I can really manage myself tonight, now I am full, so I really can not
do it with you. Enjoy yourself!
(then the guest run away and the host close the door.)

the road of my chinese drama


Maybe you would be confused by my topic, but after the explanation, you would think my road on this activity is real real ~~!! haha .

First, as a chinese, I should love my mother's language and make full use of it, so I use it in my daily life. Maybe due to some funny behavior, some friends suggested me to do some drama thing such as Xiangsheng Xiaopen and so on. As the consequence of their bad advice, I can not hold myself anymore after joining the drama behavior. Let me show you some examples, on the last automn day, I played a leading role in the drama, after finishing that drama, one of my friends told me that when she watch other shows, she want to sleep, but after watching my show, she can not sleep due to the hurt of her stomach. So you can feel how interesting and exciting my last show. This is only an example in Singapore, but tell you the truth(I do not tell normal people, so you are really great in my mind), I have done many drama shows in China though some audience does not want see me any more.

As all of us know, Chinese knew year is on the way, so my new show is also on the way. The coming show's name is a sand on the far planet(in chinese is ZAI NA YAO YUAN DE XING QIU YI LI SHA), the duration is almost 2 hours, if you want to watch,please tell me. Ok! Tell you another fact, the venue is UCC at NUS, time is 8Feb. Haha. Happy new year and happy everyday.

questions

What should the government of Singapore do for solving the drinking water problems?

The meaning of my life

With the high speed of the development of economy, many persons have lost themselves. As a very traditional person, I know something I need to do and something I should not do. Acctually, I do not know all the meaning of my life, but I believe that some parts are correct. Bucause of my some achievements, my parents and other relatives doing help for me are happy; my parents would calm down due to my daily behavior; as the consequence of my diligence, my family and my country would not be disappointed and so on. According to these points, I should think my life has many meanings. However, I do not think the meaning of my life is like that.
As a son, I should do something for my parents. Now I am in Singapore, so I can not play with them face to face. What is more, Chinese New Year is on the way, but I can not go back to celebrate it with them, so I would hurt their feelings due to the traditional custom in my hometown. All above and some other things make my families a little disappointed, so I should show my best for them. I should keep the words that I do not have the capital for pretension in mind to build up my capital and then full the meaning of my life.
As a Chinese, I should make contributions to my country. There is no need for me to make others remember me forever, but I should at least respect my country and support her to meet the deadline of the meaning of my life. Maybe, some years latter, I have to build up a family, so I would be more meaningful due to my support for my family and my job at that time. It is really cool.
Above all, I think the meaning of my life is to meet almost all the person or department caring me and I should work forever.
