Peter Min 643 R/W 04/28/17               These days, due to the rapid urbanization and the indiscriminate industrialization, our environments have totally changed compared to the past. No doubt the Earth is getting hot, and the effort to protect glacier in the North Pole is being needed more and more. Especially, climate change becomes a global issue, and it is severely threatening humanity and ecological environment. In other words, climate change has a great impact on surroundings, and it makes other critical problems. First of all, as mentioned before, climate change like global warming, which represents an extreme alternation, affects increasing natural disasters. Arctic ice, which used to help Earth stay cool, is melting because of the global warming. According to Handwerk(2004), the author of “Global Warming,” “Since 1978, Arctic sea ice area has shrunk by some 9 percent per decade and has thinned as w...

One point the author mentions is that distributing the local economic devices allows people living in developing countries to get many beneficial opportunities. Because local people can enhance the opportunities by themselves, it is significant. First of all, as the local economic devices are being distributed, they don’t need to worry about getting some utilities including electricity; therefore, the local people can improve their work efficiency. It leads to getting a better life in their country. Second, the opportunities which is made by allocating the devices can make another chance, and local people can make it without the help from developed countries. In Bangladesh, local people can develop the chance by specifying and dividing their roles, and it will be really helpful to stand on their own feet later. Lastly, the link between developing countries and others will increase; thus, it will bring amazing synergy. Developed productivity is attractive to advanced countries, so t...

Q5. In my opinion, the husband is not insane, but he just wants to take revenge on his wife because she looked down on him. First of all, when she was taken away by the police and the psychiatrist, he didn't stop them dragging her out even though she was screaming loudly. Moreover, as we can check at the end of the story, he lived happily without her; thus, I think he takes advantage of her maleficence for his rest of his life. However, there are some scenes which can be considered as he is also crazy. He maintained that he saw the unicorn and he thought the unicorn had gone away. Through these parts, the author let the reader think he is abnormal and he will be arrested. In addition, he fell asleep among the roses in the garden. It can make the contention firmly that he is crazy.

Hello, I.m Peter and my Korean name is Changyong Min! 24 years old, and I have double majors which are Chinese and International Trade. I am really interested in gettig along with my foreign freinds, but I'm not good at speaking English, so it is so stressful! I like listening music, especially K-Pop. I am the third year of my university. Every Korean learns English in school, but I forgot almost everything after I have been a university student, so I restart learning English last year. I am satisfied with this course and my teachers!
