Animal Protection Act

In my opinion,this amendment is a good thing for animals,because animals are also creatures,they have their own life,why people have the right to take their life?why people can kill them or abuse them easily? Can you imagine people even eat cats and dogs in the past?It's a horrible thing for me.People should respect and get along with animals peacefully and people can throung this amendment to understand what is animal rights.
Due to the progress of society,the issue of animals become more concerned than before,such as animals abandon or animals abuse etc.We used to neglect animal rights,for example,if some people abuse animals because animals can't talk,they can't talk to their owner or other person that they have been abuse by someone.Then we should care about it and we have the responsibility to stop those things happen again.There should be someone to be the layer of animals and educate other people abuse animals is a wrong thing,even you abuse your pets.For those people who have neglect animal rights should take respond for their behaviors,for what things they have done.Therefore,this amendment is a proof that people respon to animals and try to impeove the problems.People should love animals and respect them.

Animals Taiwan

They are a volunteer group which devoted to improve the problem of animals in Taiwan,
and they also provide the way for people who want to adopt pets.In my opinion,they are an organization which is a spokesman of animals and people who protect animals.They care about the issue of animals,if there is a unfair situation happen to animals,they will try to improve this situation and fight for the right of animals.They just like the layer of animals.However,there are many animals problems in Taiwan,for example,the street dogs.First,people abandon pets arbitrarily in the past and we don't limit the amount of pets,so there are absolutely too many pets in Taiwan.Second,these street dogs may carry many infectious diseases which will infect to people,such as hydrophobia etc.Therefore,there are many animals problems that people have to resolve.However,when I heard the news about people who abuse animals,I can't understand why people can so cruel and so violence to animals,why they can do so inhuman behavior.Maybe they abuse animals because animals can't to express their feelings by the words which people can understand.So,what's the difference between to abuse a mute and a animal,isn't it?

Issue-Book (Bridge to Terabithia)


We have to read two novels in this semester's English children novel course.We have finished the first novel,Matilda,so our next children novel is Bridge to Terabithia.It is writed by Katherine Paterson. She writes this book for her son,wants to teach him many things,including how to be a leader.The contents of this story is:Jess and Leslie is good friends,however, due to the stereotype,other students suppose they are boyfriend and girlfriend and laugh at them.
So,they try to escape those annoying things in a secret shelter.Then,they find a rope which can sway them to the other side of the mountain.This is their secret shelter.They start to imagine a kingdom of their own and they can be the leader of this imaginative world.Actually,the rope is symbol not only a way they can come to their imaginative world,but also a connection between Terabithia and them.In my opinion,there are some common point between Narnia and Bridge to Terabithia.For example,on one side,the rope in Bridge to Terabithia is a enterance,on the other side,the wardrobe in Narnia has the same function;Terabithia is a imaginative kingdom and Narnia is the same.In daaition,Leslie is a girl who full of courage and extroverted.However,Jess's personality is opposite,he is a boy who introvertrd.Lesile encourages and lead Jess to be a resoulte person,she can throw thees negative things in Jess's mind away.Finally,I feel regret about Lesile as a result of her cause of death.I can't figure out why such a nice person have this cause of death and die so young.(She was died by lightning)

A Show

I have to play a show of my groups in class at Dec.30.We decide that we want to play the chapter of Miss Trunchbull was suspect someone ate her chocolate cake and she gather all the children together to question who ate her cake.And my duties are play the cook and I have to be one of voice-overs.(We have two voice-overs) In fact,we follow the most structure of Matilda and change some place,for example,our ending is Matilda use her magic to punished Miss Ttunchbull,but from the book's ending,Matilda doesn't use her magic to punished Miss Trunchbull in the final.In addition,we are the first group to play our shows,so we feel very nervous about it,but we still have to play.However,in other hand,we can free ourselves from our show and nervous early than other classmates and we also can get a experience to prepare for our graduate performance in public.We also can watch others shows in a usual mood because we are not neverous,we have finished our show.If we are the final group to play our show,then we may not be able to concentrate on other shows.

Assignment

What do you think should be the punishment for students who cheat in this class?
The score of this class will not effective and give them second chance to correct.
But if their attitude is worse, they will be given a record in their files.

Should they be allowed a second chance to “fix” their mistakes? If so, what can they do to fix their earlier mistakes?
Yes,they should be allowed a second chance to fix their mistakes.
I will ask them to do the test or homework again. And this time they should do the finished the homework by themselves to fix their easlier mistakes,and not to be cheat any more.
