II. Answer the following questions
1. Is it possible for parents and children to be friends?
Of course! I think parents and children can become friends, and become friends. We also know that when children enter the school age, children begin to know more about relationships. The world of the baby is no longer the only parents and relatives in the family. At this time, the psychology of the baby changes more complex and may at some time, you will realize that there are many things she does not share with her parents but just love chatting with friends. However, not many, many friends are often confided to all mothers (like me). I always share, confide in my mother. Although sometimes my mother does not understand me well but she always makes me happy. Remember: Parents are people who are born, nurture us. No outsider can understand me well with my parents. So you should talk a little bit to them; Know your heart will be more fun, more comfortable!
2. Do you have a five year plan for your life?
Yes, I do. Everyone has a plan for themselves. Five years, it seems like a long time, but the reality is not so. So during this time, I will focus mainly on learning, refusing pleasures. I will learn to enter the dream school, in accordance with his majors. At this time I can help my family and my future will be brighter. Moreover, my knowledge will be richer. In addition, I will plan to become an accountant or a person with state affairs. I will help family, social more!
3. How do you maintain your motivation when you fail?
Personal motivation is the key to maintaining most aspects of life. Without motivation, we almost waste time and neglect our personal and professional goals. However, the strongest and most determined person is still at a loss. But for me it's not hard to do that. At first, I will remind myself of the goals set. Before we take the time to conquer something, we often set short-term and long-term goals. However, you need to set a practical goal to not be discouraged when not achieve what you want. That does not mean that you can not push and challenge yourself because if you do not challenge yourself then that is not the goal. If you feel ambiguous about your goals then you will be more likely to lose motivation than to constantly test to see where you are at any stage of the process. Tracking goals and monitoring progress can help you stay motivated every day. Second, to maintain motivation, you need to see progress in accomplishing goals. If you find yourself in the right direction or take a big step forward every time you check the progress, you will have more motivation and joy for your progress. If you find yourself far away from the target, this is probably the urge for you to aggressive with the target set. In particular, I will give me a little bonus like listening to music, watching movies, eating, ... Third, sometimes people with strong will also feel overwhelmed. And even I have experienced so I can understand. So I'll give myself a break, let my mind relax. It will not only help me regain my spirit but will also work better. Moreover, everyone encounters small obstacles. If I can not achieve my goal in a week, I will see it as a lesson. Try to complete the next goal before the deadline so you have enough time left to finish the work. So, I will be on schedule even when there is a small stumble. The problem here is not how I failed, but how you handle those failures and resolutely not give up. That is just a human manifestation and I will continue to try to accomplish the goal. At the same time I will also learn how to beat the delay. I believe these actions will help me maintain my motivation in any situation.
4. Are you a determined person? Are you a stubborn person?
I think I'm a determined person. For the following reasons, many people praise me for being a very determined person. I am a determined person with the desire to work hard and succeed. I think my determination comes from wanting my future brighter, wanting to help my family. In my life I learned, while I was a kid, believe in myself, work as a team, persist, think, plan, do not give up and fight for There is a positive thinking also help me but the most important thing is: to do, to do. The achievements do not turn up immediately but it's like opening a path in life. I do not expect anyone to open the way for me. I picked up the hoe and slowly I cut the grass and extracted the weeds. I was opening myself to do not know and building the road to life I wanted. If you are one of those people who have millions of ideas but still keep the reason for not realizing it, know that: '' Nothing is easy but everything is possible. '' The first step to finding The way in life is to believe in myself. I determined that when I fell, I MUST go back to continue their journey because there will be no one who can help me to the end of this life. The second is to put my ideas into practice. I see a bigger vision for my life and refuse around those who think small. I know that abundance is not just money, it is a total reflection of my life. And in life, I always find evidence to prove my words are right and also very reasonable.
I believe I'm not a stubborn person. For the following reasons, you will not be able to gain much if you do not believe in yourself. That said, there may be too many good things. Some people behaved stubbornly and claimed that it was due to their 'self-confidence'. The stubbornness leads to arrogance. However, I do not think I'm stubborn. At first I was extremely interested in the changes; Because I think it must be new, interesting. Second, I always look right, right and wrong. If I find myself right, I will try to get the evidence to prove it. On the contrary, I will look at the opinions of people and if they are correct I will support. Third, I will accept any help or solicitude of any person if it is reasonable.
5. Do you believe that the rich are growing richer, and the poor are growing poorer?
Yes. Although, for me, this is only partially true. But I still agree on the above. Firstly, the rich are getting richer. Once rich, they want to be richer. 'I'm not greedy!' Most of them are smart, they can find ways to get more money. Second, the poor - they are still poor as before. But so they are more pessimistic, no longer want to work. They consider this a NUMBER. It makes the poor think of themselves as running out of money and they get poorer. However, there are still some poor people, who are still dying on the day, always trying. Although not materialistic enough, their morale is always 'rich'.
III. Write a short essay
What do you think the world would be like if some day we didn’t have a TV or Internet?
Let's do:
Technology has long appeared and is one of the tools to evaluate the development of a progressive society. Technology brings people more joy and knowledge to help us come closer together, learn more mysterious things, interesting things in life today. This will bring the knowledge not only to adults but also to children who are first entering life outside.
The fact is that TV and Internet is playing an increasingly important role in our lives. TV and Internet are indispensable in our modern age. The benefits that the Internet brings is hard to argue, but have you ever wondered if the world does not have the Internet one day?
First, to be able to communicate with everyone you have may take up to a month to send a letter. Did you know that about 294 billion emails are sent daily, which equates to 2.8 million emails sent per second and 90 trillion emails sent every year. So imagine if one day there is no Internet, instead of clicking on an email in a 'blink of an eye,' you'll have to post a letter to hand and wait a few days, sometimes several weeks after the new letter arrives. receiver. Also in this matter, you will also spend a lot of money writing hand letters. In the US alone, the cost of using mail instead of email will be about 6.3 trillion (about 131 billion) - a huge figure. So, in the underdeveloped countries, there are still hunger, poverty and raging?
Second, a lot of businesses, companies, banks are all dependent on the Internet ... all will be in turmoil. No international banking transactions will be carried out, and transactions must be made manually through post and telecommunication services. More dangerous is that social networking sites that use the Internet will cut staff, even without it, which will result in billions of people losing their jobs.
Third, the Internet is considered as the information giant. If you do not have the Internet, you will not be able to access or find information online. Instead of sitting at home click, you will have to go to the library, bookstore find all the related books to retrieve the information to search. Not only that, 65% of today's online news readers will have to wait all day to read newspapers, update news, politics, entertainment on paper instead of 'updating' them with speed in minutes. computer, telephone network ..
More frighteningly, the infrastructure for telephone services is also part of the Internet infrastructure. Some satellite services do not work, which means that you can only watch TV programs through the normal path with the antenna. If the satellite system is 'collapsed', you may fall into the 'information blind' state completely. In addition, if the mobile phone station and telephone line are broken, we can only communicate with each other manually by handwriting.
In addition, if you idolize some famous singer or actor without the Internet, you will have to wait to buy CD to hear the idol singing. Or online purchases can not be made. For the same TV, there is no way we can update the news quickly, how can prepare the spirit in time to listen to loudspeakers every day?
In short, TV and the Internet play a huge role in social development; In changing our way of doing things in our children's learning, entertainment, relationships with friends and social behavior. However, we should not use too much momentum. Unlucky, the Internet is disabled! So enjoy the benefits that the Internet has brought to our lives.
