Why should not Kill the trucks?

Abstract

This paper argues that Ford should not stop selling the oil-dawdled cars. First, if the company stops selling them, Ford will make no profit, like a charity organization. Second, there is no moderate replacement of the truck. Third, Ford has a huge number of competitors. Therefore, Ford should not stop the trucks and SUVs .

How are you, CESL?

CESL
CESL has been set up for many years. No matter whether it is successful or not, it has been teaching so many international students that most of them may have got out of the University or even have got a job. Generally speaking, whatever they feel about CESL, one thing that is probably in their mind is that they appreciate what CESL taught them. However, there will be more and more international students who come to CESL. How can we make them feel that it is simple to obtain the benefits robber in CESL while studying in CESL? First, the context should be changed to something more interesting, but not always the environment or business. We can use some magazines as the textbook, such some sport magazines or some interesting newspapers. What the students are need is just the English. Anything related to English and written in English could be the textbook to teach them English, but not the stereotype of the comment of the textbook all the time. Of course, the more reused the textbook, the better the teacher would teach, but it is obvious the teachers felt bored with the textbook. All the students and teachers need is fresh material. Second, the more activity there is, the better students will learn. The activity is just practicing English in their life. The international students come from different countries and they have different backgrounds and different cultures. If they could take a 10 hours long flight to America to study, they would not be lack of academic English but “Living English”. So CESL needs to show more information about the United States to them to help them adapt to Americans` life. For example, today if the teachers teach the name of various kinds of vegetables, CESL should take the students to Walmart which could be considered the best classroom for the students to learn. That will be more interesting to the students and motivate them to study English. Third, CESL should make all the rules clear with the students such as the tuition fee, the passing rule of CESL and its connection with the university. For example, one of my friends got a problem, she had got a high TOEFL score and entered EAP2, and some rules showed that she could take part time university, but after she talked with the officer, she could not do that because it was her first time to be in EAP2. That sounds strange, maybe they thought she was not ready, but why not give her a chance? Probably, she would do a fabulous job. Thereby, CESL should make some changes to work better.

Chatting, is that the homework?

It is difficult to finish homework while doing some other things, such as chatting, watching movies or searching the Internet because you can not be concentrated on your work. I do my homework I this way usually, so I know a lot of it. When you start chatting with someone, your attention is grabbed on the topic, but not your homework. When you realize that you have to do your homework, you maybe finish chatting. However, when another old friend see you online, you will start talking with him or her again. Your homework is always delayed and actually you only spend 10 minutes on your homework per hour. On the other hand, if you watch a movie, it will be more serious because you will not spend 10 minutes per hour on your homework, you will look at the screen for almost two hours. After that, if the film motivates your appetite for wtching action movies, you will probably watch another two or three. So it seems you have to do your homework, which will spend you a few hours to finish, until dawn if you are a good student. Therefore, it is not a good idea to do other interesting things when you are working on your homework, because you need to concentrate and you will find that you have several hours to watch movies after finishing the homework and before you should go to bed.

"famous" problem

My famous singer is Andy Liu. He is a famous Chinese singer. In public eyes, he is charming, because of his appealing voice and handsome appearance. However, in my eyes, he has a high reputation, but he is not happy but tired. Now, he is almost 50 years old, but he is still single. Why? He is a celebrity and he has no time to share with his girlfriend or family. Maybe every day he can only sleep for 4 hours. It is not an easy job to be famous. Also, you can say what you want to say and do what you want to do because what you say and what you do will influence a lot of fans. They may run after you, which is called fashion. In addition, the biggest trouble is that the star never feels what is freedom is. There are always some people with cameras who trace them and peek at their private lives. Why does this happen to the famous person. Because they are famous, and that means their special information is worth a lot of money. According to the supply and demand law, if there is a kind of demand, someone will probably supply the demand. Even though the celebrities have a haircut, it would be the headline of the newspapers just because they are famous. If one day they become the same as us, they will never meet those kind of problems. Therefore, to solve the “famous” problem, one should not be famous at all.

Problem with phone call

After the invention of the phone, it became easier and easier for people to keep in contact with each other, especially when the cell phone came out because people coukd call their friends anywhere and any time without any problems. However, no problem is not true because nothing is completely perfect. When it is Valentines` day and you are having a candle dinner with you girlfriend and as you are flirting with her, your cell phone rings. First, no matter whether is a male or a female, your girlfriend may think that you do not treasure the time spent with her and may be angry. Second, if that is not a man but a woman, you will be in a big trouble. Your girlfriend may ask about your relationship because what kind of relation with a girl will make her call you on Valentines` day. If your girlfriend thinks in that way, tragedy is coming around the corner. You are unable to be optimistic any more because the results of this situation may be bad or nothing, but there is no good. One possibility is your girlfriend may finish the dinner with you but not activity to talk and she will be angry with you for a couple of days. This is the lightest “punishment”. The other is the most serious result that she will leave without any words which may puzzle you but means you are done… So when you are in a very place with a specific person, especially your girlfriend, you would be better turning off everything that may ring and disturb you.

Technology

With the development of the computer technology, it is changing the world a lot. For example, we can read an electric book on the computer instead of buying a paper book. Also, we can chat with friends in different place. At the same time, the most interesting innovation is that we can go shopping online. The market is switched from a places to a website. We used to drive to the big mall for shopping, but now they come to my door. That is fabulous. However, everything has two sides. There is something we need to pay attention to while shopping online. First, it is better for you not to buy those desperately cheap things and do not trust the photos because you do not know who you are dealing with and the computer technology can make the product look like whatever you want. Second, if you are shopping on a famous website, you would better not buy something from a person without credits or with minus credits. Those businessmen probably make fake things. Third, you should be careful to use your credit or debit card because the computer virus is not strange. Now it can remember your card number and the password, then send it to its “father”. So you should type in your card number as little as you can and do not forget to delete them in the memory of the website. In all, the trend of shopping on the internet can not be avoided, but we should be careful when we are shopping and enjoy the happiness that the new technology brings us.

More than a mobile phone

I think the perfect phone would be small and thin and, screen would be touched-screen. And it can be put anywhere because it is very tiny. More interesting, the color can be changed by the weather. For example, if it is rainy and cloudy, the phone turns dark. If it is a lot of sunshine, it maybe turns yellow or green. The cover would be made of special glass that is clear and light, the hardness of the glass would be like steel. Sometimes you can wear like a bracelet or a watch. This ideal phone not only has the beautiful design of the appearance, but also it has wonderful functions not the same as the basic function, such as calling, messaging and taking photos. One of the new features would be like when you wear it like a watch on your waist it can test your blood pressure and tell you the result regularly. In addition, you can use this phone to make a special call to your home, then the TV will be turned on and the water-heater and the air-conditioning will start working, also. Also, there is a built-in webcam which makes It so convenient that you could have a conversation with your family or have a short, important and emergency meeting. Therefore, this is the most ideal phone in my mind.
